Hack: Make Bunny Tags Point to Your Blog Tagspace [en]

[fr] Un petit bidouillage pour que mon plugin wordpress pour ajouter des tags ne montre (dans Technorati) que les billets de votre propre blog.

Here’s a quick hack for all of you who, like Fabienne, are disappointed that my Bunny’s Technorati Tags plugin points to the technorati tagspace instead of just your own posts.

For it to work, your plugin files need to be writable (how to do this is beyond the scope of this post, but try looking for a way to chmod 777 or whatever in your FTP program; if you use the command line, then chmod -R 777 wp-content/plugins should do it). Then, open the plugin editor (WP admin screen > Plugins > Plugin Editor) and edit the file for Bunny’s Technorati Tags.

Look for this code:

 $tag_link='<a href="http://technorati.com/tag/' . urlencode(urldecode($tag))
 . '" title="' . __('See the Technorati tag page for', 'BunnyTags') . ' ''
 . urldecode($tag) . ''." rel="tag">' . $display_tag . '</a>' . $separator;
 // make a link to the technorati tag page, with tag link text

And replace it with this:

 $tag_link='<a href="http://technorati.com/tag/' . urlencode(urldecode($tag))
 . '?from=' . get_settings('home') . '" title="'
 . __('On Technorati: see posts from this blog tagged', 'BunnyTags') . ' ''
 . urldecode($tag) . ''." rel="tag">' . $display_tag . '</a>' . $separator;
 // make a link to the technorati tag page, with tag link text

This isn’t quite the same as pointing them to a page on your blog which contains all the posts. But the final result is pretty similar. Otherwise, Fabienne says that Jerome’s Keywords Plugin does the trick for her.

20 secondes [fr]

[en] More bad editor stuff.

20 Secondes

Je ne vous en dis pas plus, mais personnellement, je pense que 20 secondes ce n’est pas assez pour faire les en-têtes.

Comme le dit Raph, faut aussi s’occuper de la concurrence.

Chasse à la faute [en]

[fr] Typo stuff.

Qui la trouve en premier?

Writing [en]

[fr] Je crois qu'on vient de me convaincre d'écrire un bouquin. Enfin, je veux dire que je sais quel en sera le sujet, maintenant. Et cela me paraît faisable.

I think I’ve just been convinced to write a book. I mean, now I know what it’s going to be about. And it feels possible.

Large Footer Lust [en]

[fr] C'est décidé, je veux un large pied de page à remplir de widgets, comme ceux qu'on voit de plus en plus dans les thèmes WordPress.

It’s official. I want a large footer I can stuff full of widgets, like the one I see over at Ordered List. Anybody added one to K2?

Getting good at short posts, ain’t I?

Giving FeedBurner a Spin [en]

[fr] FeedBurner produit un fil RSS à partir de votre blog. Quel intérêt si notre outil de blog préféré le fait déjà? FeedBurner fournit des statistiques de consultation et tout un tas d'autres services sympas.

Heard about FeedBurner so much I thought I’d give it a try. Feed stats sound like a nice thing to have. So, here’s the new address: http://feeds.feedburner.com/ctts. Consider changing your subscription if it’s not too much of a hassle to you. You’ll get my del.icio.us links in there two in daily bundles if you do. 😉

Update: now using the feedburner plugin. Let me know if any breakage reaches you.

I Might Be Switching to Google Reader [en]

[fr] J'aime Google Reader comme lecteur RSS. Surtout la facilité avec laquelle on peut partager des billets qui nous ont plu.

Robert loves Google Reader. Tempted me to try. I think I love it too.

I’ve been using Bloglines for quite some time now (still doesn’t make me a good blog reader). I find the interface for Google Reader clearer. It was easy to export my subscriptions as OPML from Bloglines to try Google Reader.

What really wins me over? How easy it is to share the stuff I’ve liked with you. I’ve even added it to my sidebar. See? Maybe Bloglines does it (I’m sure it does) but it wasn’t obvious enough and I never got around to doing it. With Google Reader, I just click on the “share” button at the end of each post I want to add to my share page.

Sampling the Blogosphere [en]

We regularly use Technorati to keep up-to-date with what the blogosphere is saying about coComment. Here are a few things that caught my attention today.

Some Tips on Commenting [en]

Here at coComment, we quite like these commenting tips given by Reg Adkins over at Lifehack. I personally like the opening paragraph very much:

Posting a comment on someone’s website is like walking into their dining room and pulling a chair up to the table. If it’s your dining room table it can be a bit of a shock when someone shows up.

Read the rest of Reg’s suggestions, and let us know what you think. Do you agree? Disagree? Do you have other tips for being a “good commenter” that you would like to share with us?
