Muffins in the Oven
After several minutes of screaming and swearing on #servergeeks and unbreaking things, hopefully when I press "Post" in a few seconds time the newly-completed twitter module will work and post this to twitter on my behalf. What I've done is added three more fields to the user table: twitter_active, twitter_uname and twitter_pword. From there it's nice and simple, check to see if the user wants to tweet (twitter_active), retrieves their twitter credentials from the DB and then muffins posts to twitter... in theory.
I've neglected this site over the past few months, but earlier today I added some stuff to the code section to give at least some sort of detail on my endeavours and will be reworking the home and picture sections as well as putting more stuff on the wiki.
Other minor updates include updated linkroll and blogroll links, and the twitter feed in the sidebar now links directly to the status (click the time) as well as accounting for links and @replies - I intend to add facilities for #hashtags shortly.
Since I have to work on other bits of code over the next month or two which so far I have neglected (apologies to those in question) I'm just going to use this as a notepad and list a few things that I plan to implement into muffins whenever I can: archives, better comment system including OpenID support, better anti-spam in comments, and a more complex admin/user control panel. I will also be deprecating RSS support for muffins and turning it Atom-only since RSS seems to create problems with this, but the actual module used will still support RSS and I may eventually re-implement it after I iron out the issues.
Good day.
