Well I hope you all like the new format for the blog site. It seems to combine the best elements of the original site – posts that can be scrolled on the left panel combined with a scrollable right panel containing search, category list and tag cloud, plus other website links – with the compressed look of each individual post that was a feature of the previous format.
One thing I like about the new look is that if you put a picture and/or graph in your post it shows that in the compressed view. I suspect this simple feature will lead to more clicks because pictures! So to my fellow authors – put a picture in!!!
Please don’t hesitate to suggest any other changes: I’ll see if they can be accommodated, but remember that this is a format supplied by the blog hosting system for free, and therefore possibly a bit limited.
The new format is much better thanks Tom.
Meh. Thank WordPress. Apparently this format has been available since Dec ’22 and I didn’t see it!
DOH!!
interesting set up. One request: can you add authors to front (headline) page please.
PDM just requested the same thing and …. it can’t be done. Annoying but I’ll continue to work on it.
Good work!
The way that images affect the layout makes it a little confusing to me – would it be possible to move the image to appear below the post title, instead of above it? That might help?
I agree but this format does not allow for a lot of customisation. Hardly surprising since it’s free.
Much better the old format really wasn’t very inviting for me.
