Del.icio.us auto posting thingy
I tried out the delicious automatic posting of daily links thing for a bit, as you may have noticed, but the crappy html (whats with all the br’s and divs in the list items?) is just too much too bear on my little site. On another note; i amy try out lightpress one of these days. Appearently someone has ridden wordpress of all it’s extra baggage (heavy SQL mostly) and made a tuned version. Neato!
update: installing lightpress was easy enough (it installs as a WP plugin). and it works, which is nice. you are looking at the default template right now which is… ehmm. Clean! At least it feels less cramped than the overusd Kubrick. One day i will actually put some effort in a new template… really!
update: i just turned on lightpress’s built in del.icio.us plugin to show my latest bookmarks on the homepage. It’s shows all now but you could easily set it to just post bookmarks with a specific tag.

Not to worry, we’ll have some more templates available soon.

yeah, the daily posting needs some fixing up. have you tried the javascript sidebar thing at http://del.icio.us/doc/feeds/js/ ?
if i put
<li>
<script type=”text/javascript” src=”http://del.icio.us/feeds/js/tijs?count=5;title=My%20Bookmarks”></script>
</li>
into your sidebar, i get something like http://tinypic.com/a9mfkk.png
i’m not suggesting you should stick it in that location (or even use it at all), but it might help. (no br’s. one div)

Thanks for the tip tim, that looks rather neat. Lightpress has a built in plugin for delicious feeds that does something similar so i’ll see if i can get that to work first.
