The Trap is setup again
A few weeks ago I posted about setting up a forum for this blog as an experiment. A perk of no one reading this is that when I screw up, no one notices.
The Trap existed but never really worked. I was testing things out and just let it fall off. Today I moved to phpBB rather than the forum tool I had been experimenting with, and in doing so have the first iteration of the forum's automated posting made. When I publish a new post that has its own page (rather than just existing in the date archive) it will automatically create a post on the forum.
It's not perfect. It runs by having the forum pull my RSS feed, which it does every 30 minutes. Additionally, this means there is no way for me to let the blog know a forum link, so I can't link to the forum discussion automatically. Yet.
But, since no one is here, I get the joy of just futzing around at my own pace.
The other screw up no one noticed was that single pages for entries weren't publishing at all. I implemented some code behind the scenes and I totally screwed it up. So it was making every single entry page just blank. And I only noticed it, today, after a few weeks of this issue being live, because I was messing around with The Trap forum.
