Feedburner and WP

Filed under: Design, Tutorials — FayeC @ 2:37 pm
It was so easy to install and configure I thought I might have missed something… For those who are looking for information on the process here is a simplified version of it: 1- Create your feed on Feedburner by using your WP’s feed url (usually something like yoursite.com/feed). Make sure you write down the feedburner url for your new feed. 2- Download and install plugin Feedburner Feedsmith Plugin. 3- Configure your plugin using the feedburner URL you created on step 1. 4- Replace your default RSS link with the feedburner URL and your done. I hope this might help others get through the process.

The sIFR3 Adventure!

Filed under: Design — FayeC @ 5:34 pm
So I jumped in the sIFR3 bandwagon and decided to treat my titles with a little style… Quite easy to implement. No biggie to implement its css and js codes but (and there’s always that little annoying *but*) the font swf would not play nice… Every time I tried to create a new font file I got either a “Please pass in your text.” or nothing at all where the sIFR’d text should be. So I did some googling and found mentions to the possibility that my files were sIFR2 and I was trying to use them with sIFR3. I re-downloaded the package from NOVEMBERBORN (they had released a newer nightly on July 11) and tried again. My first and second try didn’t work but the third worked. I have no idea what I did different but this time the font swf worked. I tried with a second font and couldn’t get it to work at all… In any case I had what I needed for my pages so here we are with sIFR’d titles :) Now off to figure out how to create more font files. I will post once I find what made the difference on the 3rd try.
