### Add more fields to the RSS output
|
|
|
|
I'd like to see more fields in the RSS output, specifically an author
|
|
indication and a comments link. These would be useful for blogging,
|
|
especially on aggregator sites like http://planet.debian.org. I think maybe
|
|
the meta plugin can be used to set the author field, though I haven't tried
|
|
it, but in my opinion a better way would be to have the author taken from
|
|
the user name who created the page (either from the svn commit or from the
|
|
user name in the web commit). Maybe there are issues with this though.
|
|
|
|
> Yes, the meta plugin will add fields if author meta-info is speficied.
|
|
> To get author info from commits it would need to store it in the index file,
|
|
> similarly to how pagectime is stored. Doable.
|
|
|
|
I'd also like to see a comments field added with a link to the discussion
|
|
page so that comments can be made there. One thing I'm not sure how to deal
|
|
with is the way the discussion page link changes after it has been created.
|
|
There would need to be some way of specifying to ikiwiki.cgi to create the
|
|
page if it doesn't exist, or to just edit the page if it does.
|
|
Alternatively, the discussion pages could be automatically created when a
|
|
new blog post is created, and then the edit link would work fine.
|
|
|
|
> I would really like for some additional TMP variables to be present in the rss template as well. For the inline page template, the CTIME TMPL_VAR results in nice phrases like: <q>Posted late Tuesday morning, November 13th, 2007</q>, and it would be neat to let the planet Debian people see that as well :-) Manoj
