This item on hit-and-run weblogging coupled with this other item on discerning weblog usage gave me an idea: Is there a way, in Radio, to specify which posts are forwarded to your aggregator feed? Often I do a quick post (some smug webloggers might call these hit-and-run posts) for my own reference. Other posts have an audience in mind. I'd like to post both to my weblog, while forwarding only the latter to the aggregator feed. Has this been done? 11:14:36 AM    comment []

The Coolest Radio Trick Yet This is the coolest Radio trick I've seen yet:  Click here to add this event to your Outlook or Netscape calendar. Actually, it's not just a Radio trick, it's a web trick. I love it. See Blue Sky Radio for vCalendar and Radio, Part 1 and 2. 10:57:29 PM    comment []

Radio Template Macro Checklist This template reconstruction process is more difficult than you would think. Apparently others are going through the same struggle that I am. I just rediscovered this resource which I have overlooked because the title threw me off - thanks to Dog Newsie for pointing it out. How to Create a Theme is a good resource for people reconstructing their templates. Even if you have no interest in creating a theme for others to use, this tutorial provides a useful checklist for home template, item template, desktop homepage template macros to include. 5:15:35 PM    comment []

What is Radio Express? What is RadioExpress? Radio Free Blogistan mentions it here: does anyone know how to modify the RadioExpress code so that the resulting post page shows up in another window? 8:48:34 PM    comment []

Is there a way to tweak the cross-posting form handler in Radio?  I love the cross-posting feature in Radio (when you click on the Post button to the right of every rss item Radio will copy the item and author to your desktop homepage for posting). I try to edit these crost-posts before publishing them to indent blockquotes and correctly credit the original author. Is there a way to tweak the code that handles the Post button's click action? I imagine this involves editing a form handler. 9:59:43 AM    comment []

Is there an easy way to synchronize the Homepage template with the Main template? Today I changed the order of the xml coffee mug, xml icon, and navigator links along the left side of my weblog. I had to edit the Homepage template, the Main template, and the Desktop Website template to make the left navbar look consistent. Could I make one change in "prefs" instead of making three identical changes in the Homepage template, Main template, and Desktop Website templates? Is there an easy way to keep the Homepage template synchronized with the Main and Desktop Website templates? 10:54:03 PM    comment []
