Website Updates

I have recently made some updates to this website.

Inline Code Style

Inline code blocks that include spaces were not easy to read with the previous style. Sentences that included more than one inline code block were particularly difficult to read. Taking inspiration from GitHub, I changed the style to format inline code with a smaller font and a gray background. Rounded rectangles are used to indicate the beginning and end of the inline code block. When an inline code black is wrapped, the background at the beginning and end of the line is not rounded, indicating that the include code block is wrapped.

Series Type

Article series can now be configured to be one of the following types:

• unordered (default)
• ordered
• noindex

This setting determines how series are listed in the articles index page as well as on an article page. The unordered setting causes the articles in a series to be itemized using bullets. The ordered setting causes the articles in a series to be enumerated using numbers. The noindex setting causes the articles in the series to not be shown at all. This setting will be used with “tagged index series” (coming soon).

Note that this settings does not affect how articles are listed on tag index pages or in RSS feeds.

Public Draft Status

I implemented a public draft status that renders articles and blog entries but does not include them in indexes or RSS feeds. This will allow me to solicit feedback about articles before publishing them.
