Mephisto Tag Cloud Plugin

Because the French one disappeared off the face of the earth, I took it upon myself to make a tag cloud Liquid plugin. Here’s the scoop. I downloaded Rick’s MeasureMap Plugin and went to town converting it. Add this to your sidebar in your liquid template of choice: {% for tag in site.tags %} {{ tag | size_tag }} {% endfor %} And you should have some awesome tag_cloud action. You can specify an upper limit as well: {{ tag [...]

Mephisto Theme: Wibbish

Watch out! Here comes the most emo theme of them all! It’s a total ripoff of Scribbish. I like it better. Maybe you will to. Lame Link I made to the asset :P I wish I knew how to do this the hot asset way…damn. Or get the latest subversion and build with build.sh: svn co http://modzer0.cs.uaf.edu/repos/hank/code/rails/mephisto/themes/wibbish-mephisto/ Notes: The Syntax Highlighting is probably screwed up since I inversed the background color. Added OpenID template. It’s turned off in the layout [...]

So, here’s the situation: My current host is Site5. I have gems set up in my home directory, and I have [...]

I own stock now!

Well, I finally took the plunge I’ve been thinking about takeing for over ten years now – I bought stock. Now I just have to wait for the holiday season to kick it up to where I can sell it, and I’ll be set.

First Post, What to say

Well, I finally got this damn blog working thanks to bish0p. Turns out that you have to change the shebang line from #!/usr/bin/env ruby to #!/usr/local/bin/ruby Ahh typo is nice. Other crap I learned today: Problems with typo themes generating application errors can be solved by changing this line in layouts/default.rhtml <%= render_component(:controller => ‘sidebars/sidebar’, :action => ‘display_plugins’) %> To this: <%= render_sidebar %> Thanks to This dude. I generated a new GPG keypair today (Public Key). Get it like [...]
