seraph

Alright, I came up with a pretty easy solution in the end (quite a non-intensive one too). Instead of using the_content() I use this:

<?php
$more = strpos($post->post_content, "<!--more-->")+11;
if($more != "") {
echo apply_filters('the_content', '<div class="excerpt">'.substr($post->post_content, 0, $more).'</div>');
echo apply_filters('the_content', substr($post->post_content, $more));
}
else
the_content();
?>

This has the benefit of allowing flexibility, and allows it to hook into the wordpress plugin hooks as well.

True, but that would be a little less than optimal really wouldn’t it?

I was pondering doing a preg_match for something that did a match for *<!--more-->, removed it from the post text itself and then created a new var with the contents of the matched text.

A little involved, but it’d be quite a lot more portable if I decide to not restyle in the future — I’d like to keep extraneous markup to a minimum.

Actually that example is exactly the device I came up with, but using the $post object instead … and a ton of filters of course.

binarybonsai.com is definitely one of them

Problem solved. Thanks.

I’ve narrowed it down to older versions of FeedParser and newer versions of Python. The latest feedparser + Python 2.3.4 works fine.

Still a no go. I’ve done all that ??

allusion: When I think about it, MovableType is the OS X of blogging solutions. GNOME has a definite advantage over OS X, and it will start to show in few iterations.
Guvner: GNOME.

I am starting to look into this, and quite likely will attempt to fix it in a backwards compatible manner
oohhhh! the pain!

hmmm don’t know about that last. as for the window suggesting what to put in the post, I’ll fix that and post it.

yep. LONG LIVE THE MOOSE!

How come I’m the only celeb endorsing it by the way?

thanks Matt.
