Re: Calendar problem? No March ?. Ross, I have no idea how to help or fix the problem and I can't remember what I did besides installing the monthly archive macro You might try that but I have no idea if that will help or not. Maybe someone else knows the answers??? Although i did find some documentation about the bug and I wrote a newbie tip for the workaround Julie sexymagick [Radio UserLand Messages] 2:39:07 PM    comment []

Re: Calendar problem? No March ?. This used to happened to me when I didn't make a post on the 1st of the month but for some reason it stopped happening to me - I guess I assumed Radio fixed the bug. Here is a work around: With Radio open, go to your www folder, open 2005 folder, then open 03 folder, copy the 03 text file and paste it into the same location, rename it to 01.txt. Then open it and change the date to read 2005/03/01 instead of 2005/03/03, save. I think you need to post something new, let the file upstream and then the calendar should work again Let me know if you need help Julie sexymagick [Radio UserLand Messages] 12:31:28 AM    comment []

Re: which template for a seperator?. Ross, Put it in #itemTemplate.txt. It should go to the bottom and can be as simple as an img tag. Andy [Radio UserLand Messages] 1:32:59 AM    comment []

A script to generate a blogroll for each category. This is for users who have discovered Radio's outliner and wish to create blogrolls or link rolls by rendering OPML files with Radio's blogroll macro, rather than using the navigatorLinks.xml files that Radio provides for in the browser interface. When inserted into #hometemplate.txt, this script automates the display of customized blogrolls for each category, while using a single template throughout your site for your homepage and all categories. The OPML-based method of generating blogrolls has significant advantages, including easier editing and more control over styles via CSS. <%if not defined (categoryName) <<{return ""} else {local (catName = categoryName, adrBlog = radio.weblog.init(), categoryLinks = "http://127.0.0.1:5335/gems/"); local (catFileName = adrBlog^.categories.[catName].fileName); categoryLinks = (categoryLinks + catFileName + ".opml"); radio.macros.blogroll (categoryLinks, flProcessMacros:"true", flXmlButton:"false")}%> NOTE - remove the '<<' from in front of 'return' above - I had to add it because otherwise that part of the script would not display in this discussion group post. I hope some fellow Radioheads may find this useful. I have tested this and it works fine on my blog, but if anybody encounters problems or has questions please let me know. I am not a programmer so there may be more elegant alternatives. More details posted on my weblog here. David [Radio UserLand Messages] 3:14:06 PM    comment []

And Glenn Beck is also on XM satellite radio, ch. 166, 9am-12pm ET.  Appearing on Glenn Beck Radio Show. I'll be on the Glenn Beck radio program tomorrow (Tuesday, 25 January) shortly after 12:00 noon eastern time. If you don't have a Glenn Beck affiliate near you, you can listen online, either live or by downloading segments from the program archive.

I don't know what happened, but the margins in my desktop home page are fixed.  That is to say, there's no more scrolling right and left to see the whole page.  Full moon, maybe that's it.  9:59:00 PM    comment []

Re: Frequently switching between two PC's. I have two at home and use the remote access method http://127.0.0.1:5335/system/pages/prefs?page=4.1 of running radio from my other computer, which may as well be anywhere else in the world. I can access it from a browser anywhere, and have. In actuality the two machines are their own network. What works for me is a domain name for radio, and call my computer's port 5335 and I'm there. ie. http://myblog.mydomain.com:5335 into a browser's address box would open it up as if you were there. If you use a router and your isp uses DHCP for your IP address (cox)like I do, then you'll also have to configure the router to route the radio stuff to the computer running radio.

Frequently switching between two PC's. Is there a best practice for running RU on two PC's which one uses interchangably (e.g. desktop and laptop)? As I understand it, I'd have to copy the database from one to the other and woe be him who modifies both databases and has to reconcile the conflict. Perhaps "Remote access" solves this problem. The following is from RU's prefs: > You can access Radio UserLand through any Web browser using remote access. Everything that you can do through your Desktop Website while using the computer that's running Radio can be done through a Web browser from another computer. The settings on this page allow you to secure remote access to your Desktop Website by requiring a username and password. I'd then have RU on the laptop and make sure it's always on so I can access it from my desktop? There's four options on the RemoteAccess pref: 1. enable access to your Web server over the Internet. Leave it unchecked if you want to allow access only from the same computer that's running Radio. 2. allow posting of forms to your Web server over the Internet. Leave it unchecked to allow posting only from the same computer that's running Radio. 3. allow access to your system pages on the server over the Internet. Leave it unchecked to allow access only from the same computer that's running Radio. 4. require user authentication when accessing your Web server over the Internet. If this box is checked, remote users will receive a username/password dialog box when they access your Desktop Website from another computer. Enter the username and password below. I can't find documentation/help on these options. What do they do? [Radio UserLand Messages] 2:59:30 PM    comment []

Re: master ping and such, what?. Hi Ross. Masterping simply lets more people know about your weblog posts. Install it, check off all the various services and forget about it. Then, whenever you post to your weblog, not only will weblogs.com be updated, all the other ping servers will be as well. People monitor various ping servers for new posts so the more servers you ping, the more people will know about your weblog. -- Donovan Watts Radio UserLand: The Missing Manual [Radio UserLand Messages] 2:32:09 PM    comment []

master ping and such, what?. I just downloaded the master ping tool after reading that it's a must-have tool. Trouble is I don't know what this tool can be used for. It seems I have to hook up with ping 'services' in order to use it. ?? What's this all about anyway? Is it notification? Is it route tracing or what? Why do I need this tool?

Re: Put JavaScript in Radio. Where your templates are stored, like #template.txt, create a new file #javaScript.txt. Put all your javascript in there. In your #template.txt file, or whichever template you want the JS to be put the following macro, <%javaScript%> Andy [Radio UserLand Messages] 12:44:55 AM    comment []

Re: Put JavaScript in Radio. Niklas, You always can put your JS code directly into the #homeTemplate.txt or #template.txt files. Andy [Radio UserLand Messages] 12:41:35 AM    comment []

Re: What's the difference between Radio and MovableType. Radio is more than just a weblog-tool. It can serve you as a simple CMS for static (though easliy editable) pages aso. One interface many blogs and pages at different locations (internet, intranet) Has stories as a kind of slow doc mode check out activeRenderer this tool changes everything [Radio UserLand Messages] 12:26:50 AM    comment []
