One More WordPress Update

http://rusty-halo.com/wordpress/?p=2559

Disclose-Secret in conjunction with Role Manager = as many custom friends groups as I want. Yay, I’ve got my filtering back! :) (It says it works up to 2.1.1 but it seems fine on my 2.3.3 installation.)

I also installed a mod for LiveJournal(/InsaneJournal/Journalfen) Crossposter that directly connects WordPress tags to LJ/IJ/JF tags (it was previously connecting WordPress categories to LJ/IJ/JF tags). This way I don’t have to enter the same tags and categories for every entry, and can use the categories for something else. Thanks to Verily for telling me about it! (You’ll find it linked here.)

And finally, I’m using the Dashboard Remover plugin to get rid of that annoying dashboard (and to prevent registered users from seeing that there are comments on friendslocked entries). Thank you to Cass for linking this! (She also made a hack of Cricket Moods with the LJ moods as default, for anyone who is starting out.)

Current Mood: busy

Beat to Quarters & Master and Commander

http://rusty-halo.com/wordpress/?p=2560

I’ve started reading British naval historical novels set in the Napoleonic era. (I think this is a result of running out of Sharpe books and so moving from land to sea. That and an annoying subway commute.)

I finished C. S. Forester’s Beat to Quarters last week.

( spoilers )

Now I'm about a quarter of the way into Patrick O'Brian's Master and Commander. ( spoilers )

After I finish Master and Commander, I'll decide which series to continue reading. I liked the Hornblower character best, but I like the Aubrey/Maturin relationship best. So we'll see. :)

Current Mood: thoughtful

Secret Snap Cup Meme

http://rusty-halo.com/wordpress/?p=2562

I would not normally do an anon love meme, but it’s kind of been a really crappy week. So, um, if you want to say something nice about me… My Secret Snap Cup.

(*hides*)

Current Mood: weird
