op-co.de blog/ posts/ Testing ikiwiki

Am I actually making a blog? I don't even want to know!

Setting up the CSS for iki is not quite a nice & easy job, but at least it is not the usual Web 0.2 bloat.

Update: ikiwiki has the nasty misfeature of overwriting local.css whenever you regenerate the wiki without --refresh. Because I do not like it and I did not want to dig too deep, I added the following to my .htaccess:

Redirect /blog/local.css /ikiwiki.css

Up-Update: The obvious solution is to put local.css into the source directory instead of the destination directory. Thanks to Spida for this hint.

With rss2email I now even get e-mail notifications for comments in three easy steps.

1. Create an ikiwiki comments feed.

2. Install and configure rss2email:

sudo aptitude install rss2email
r2e new georg@op-co.de
r2e add ~/public_html/blog/comments/index.rss

3. Add the following to your crontab (crontab -e):

* * * * * r2e run

Enjoy!

Finally I also managed to set up a git repository to host this blog. This actually allows me to write blog posts in Vim on my laptop. Cool!

Lets see if comments still work ;-)
