Noting a small feature - split links to subcategories in displays
|
Blog Entry | 1 reply | 23-January-2005 | Mike Malloch |
I'm going to try to use knotations for a bit of microdocumentation instead of sending emails tp firstclass conferences as is my wont. So.. a small one: when displaying links to categories with structure, split into links for each level of subcategory.
Links to open by-category view appear in the entries and also in the categories sidebar. When these have structure - like the one associated with this entry - it would be good to have each node in that structure as a separate link: eg 'development' / 'knotes' / 'categories' as 3 links. This will bloat the pages a bit, but adds some value... perhaps js to traverse the links and split on the category names? Mind you, until we have a taxonomy browser / editor for adding sturctured categories, it's up to users to discover that they can use '/' to make taxonomic structure, and this will likely not happen with many users :o). |

Done! The new js-traversal scripts do this | Discussion Topic | 0 replies | 03-February-2005 | Mike Malloch |
In the past few days I added javascripts which traverse weblog views and add conveninece links - split category links fall out of that
A few days ago I cleaned out as much link-load as possible from the aggregate blog views, and then added javascripts which traverse the DOM after page load and insert a lot of conveneience links. This includes category links, split by subcategory ( without javascript, aggregate views do not have links rfor categories at all ). Still need to do something similar for single-entry view, which still has links for categories rendered into the html of the page. |
