Jeff has been quietly and stealthily been working on a free plugin that brings the functionality behind our popular tumblog themes to plugin format. That means you can turn your custom WP theme, or whatever theme you use, into a WordPress tumblog – easily posting images, notes, links and quotes to your site from your WordPress dashboard, or by using our iPhone app. via Tumbling along | WooThemes Ironically, I used ScribeFire to grab this link and quote the highlighted text, with one click. It’s really more for the iPhone functionality that I’m fooling with this. It’s all working for…

Yeah, still some dental horror looming.

We hardly knew ye, but we know all about the resume update you’ll have chiseled onto your tombstone. Link: Burris Looks Back On “Big Legacy” UPDATE: RATS! I can’t add just a link, because I didn’t want to replace my entry titles with the Tumblog entry title tag. I had to add the link and it’s title manually on this post.

So: not messages like “love your neighbor, love the sinner” but more like “hate yourself, hate your sin.” Testing Express, an app for iPhone that is supposed to work n conjunction with the WooTumblog app. UPDATE: Works! Still not the link-grabber bookmarklet Press This used to be before a recent “security” update, but it’s not difficult to set up a lightly edited post from the iPhone now. It’s not that easy to do links with the official WordPress app, and blockquote? Fageddaboudit, you have to go through hell just to get angle brackets. All in all, a modified “w00t!”

More testing of the WooTumblog plugin, this time with the Twenty-Ten theme enabled. I’m not sure I want to use the Tumbler-like styling… just want to see if links and quotes work. UPDATE: Not working. I guess I need to figure out what the “simple tags” are that I need to add to my theme. Dammit. UPDATE II: Working! Did add the woo_tumblog content tags ONLY above the excerpt and content tags in my current theme. I first tinkered with the free Twenty-Ten theme, since there were instructions specific to that theme… but Amazing Grace was easier to edit once…

While I was tinkering under the hood of the blog working on the new plugin, David was tinkering under the hall bathroom sink working on the faucet. A crash, some swear words, and an ominous splattering sound foretells a trip to the hardware store in our future. But first, Chipotle for lunch, because we’ve learned that tinkering on an empty stomach foretells disaster.

Testing image blogging from iPhone with Express app… UPDATE: Yeah, still need to add those template tags. More later, much less boring.

The point of installing the WooTumblog plugin was to try out the Express blogging app for iPhones, which is specific to self-hosted blogs like Blogula Rasa. I need to be able to blog more easily than the official WordPress app seems to allow.

Just listened to @WaitWait with Dick Van Dyke, who totally rocked “Not My Job” with his comprehensive knowledge of vans and dikes. What a delight when he SANG the “Dick Van Dyke Show” jingle! Still testing WooTumblr – David DOES need to edit the tags in the theme so that it picks up photos, links, and so on. I’m adding a link via the RTF buttons in the normal Article function this time. Also, the time stamp is not updating. UPDATE: And the link did not work either. No point in testing further until David gets a chance to update…

The phrase “…and the thousands of astronauts to follow” made me burst into tears. Still testing WooTumblog, this is the Links function
