Yes. I believe some of this is explained in part in the blog.conf comments as well as the user manual.

Start by looking for the MAINPAGE_QUERY setting. You can include all entries for the main page by setting this to "all". However, this will most likely trigger pagination, which is controlled by MAX_PAGE_ENTRIES and is superseded by setting MAX_MAINPAGE_ENTRIES. I suppose, as the code stands now, you might be able to trick your way out of pagination, by setting the latter to "0".

If you want to take things farther, you can try modifying the templates and playing with the archive settings.
 
Does that answer your question?

Thanks,
Kevin

Does anyone know... Is it possible to generate a version of a nanoblogger blog as a single web page with all entries in it?

Thanks,

I have just upgraded my blog to nanoblogger 3.4.2 but am not able to reflect that change in the blog itself. Where is the variable < $version > set please. I've hunted high and low for it but all without success, I'm hoping that someone can tell me so that I can display the correct version number in the blog.

Thanks
Sharon.

Sharon,

The correct shell variable is $VERSION.

Subject: Calendar malfunction after upgrade to Debian Squeeze
guhoka81
Send Email Send Email
 
Until a couple of days ago, I was using Nanoblogger in conjunction with Debian
Lenny, now superseded by Debian Squeeze.

Since moving to Squeeze, the calendar plugin doesn't work right anymore. Here's
the output you'll find on every html page featuring the calendar:
http://pastebin.com/qGVK7x1J

At first I thought this was related to Debian's move to dash as the standard
shell. I re-configured /bin/sh to link to /bin/bash instead of /bin/dash, but no
luck.

I moved back to Lenny for now, since I'm not the most technical person/ don't
know what the problem is.

I just thought you'd like to know this, since every problem in Debian is a
problem for Ubuntu et al. as well.

Ok, figured it out:

I specified CAL_ARGS=-m in blog.conf, so that the calendar week would start with
monday. Calling cal with the -m option doesn't work in Squeeze anymore. You will
have to use ncal -M to get a similar result. And when I say similar, I mean that
ncal has a different layout, and this does not chime well with nanoblogger.

Your output will look like this:
Tu Tu We We Th Th Fr Fr Sa Sa Su Su
April 2011 Mo  4  11  18  25
	 Tu  5  12  19  26
	 We  6  13  20  27
	 Th  7  14  21  28
Fr  1  8  15  22  29
Sa  2  9  16  23  30
Su  3  10  17  24

So I'm using cal now, without calling any arguments.

Hope this helps,
Dan

This can be circumenvented by specifying
ABSOLUTE_LINKS="1"
in blog.conf.

Granted, you use relative links, but at least everything works.

Thanks. I tried that. Everything seems to work on the main site, but not
on the backup site or on the staging site. Since I use the latter to
work with a blog entry in progress, that's rather important.

By "not work" you mean you get 404's? Because that's the downside, you won't be
able to view new entries (perma/category view) unless you upload the files.

BTW I create a draft to work on unpublished stuff (nb -b $nanodir draft
somefile.txt). You can import it later on. HTH

No. When I use absolute URLs, I get URLs with the domain name of the
server. If I'm using localhost for my development server, I don't need
links to charlescurley.com.

Hi,

just wondering if anyone knows what the "%" signifies in "%base_url%" I have
looked through the bash, sh and builtin man pages but never was able to tease
out the meaning, for my understanding.

Is it interpreted by bash, tidy or html?

Is it a shell command?

thanks,

The css files are still there and the link to the style sheet hasn't changed, but the index.html has all the posts at the top of the page, with all the other gubbins at the bottom of the page instead of at the right hand side.

No, the only change has been that I've changed operating systems from CentOS to Debian 6. I'm still using nanoblogger 3.2.3 as I haven't heard of a way to upgrade without losing all the original posts.

Sharon,

I checked your website[1] and was unable to reproduce the problem. Is there another link you could provide?

Also, this may be a long shot, but where are you hosting the weblog (index.html)? Has it changed with your move to CentOS?

As far as upgrading is concerned, I would encourage you to backup your old posts and go for it!

I was so embarrassed about the state of the index page that i didn't upload it , I can do that now though so you can see what it currently looks like. Right, the 'bad' index page has been uploaded so you can see what I mean.

Also, this may be a long shot, but where are you hosting the weblog (index.html)? Has it changed with your move to CentOS?

The index.html remains the same as before, in a programmes, nanoblogger folder.

If I upgrade do I lose all the old posts? Its that that’s stopping me from upgrading.

I've moved over to Debian 6 from CentOS 5.6 which was relatively
painless except now when I'm trying to document my changeover and I've
lost my stylesheets. Can anyone give me a clue as to how to restore
them please and to get my blog looking okay again. So far I haven't
published my latest article as the file preview looks so awful. This
is in nanoblogger 3.3.2.

Hopefully thanks
Sharon.

Sharon,

Thanks for doing that, you're awesome! Try removing $BLOG_URL from your BLOG_CSS setting in blog.conf.

It should look more like: BLOG_CSS="styles/mt_clean.css" then regenerate your index page using "-u main".

I also noticed something funky going on with your articles, but by all means upgrade your copy of NanoBlogger.
It should be an easy upgrade, but always backup as a precautionary.

Thanks,
Kevin

I was so embarrassed about the state of the index page that i didn't upload it , I can do that now though so you can see what it currently looks like. Right, the 'bad' index page has been uploaded so you can see what I mean.

Also, this may be a long shot, but where are you hosting the weblog (index.html)? Has it changed with your move to CentOS?

The index.html remains the same as before, in a programmes, nanoblogger folder.

As far as upgrading is concerned, I would encourage you to backup your old posts and go for it!

If I upgrade do I lose all the old posts? Its that that’s stopping me from upgrading.

Hi Sharon,

It's not clear to me how you lost your style sheets.

1. Are the files themselves missing or is the link to the style sheet no longer resolving properly?

The css files are still there and the link to the style sheet hasn't changed, but the index.html has all the posts at the top of the page, with all the other gubbins at the bottom of the page instead of at the right hand side.

2. Have you recently upgraded to a newer version of Nanoblogger?

No, the only change has been that I've changed operating systems from CentOS to Debian 6. I'm still using nanoblogger 3.2.3 as I haven't heard of a way to upgrade without losing all the original posts.

Thanks
Sharon.

Sharon,

Thanks for hanging in there. Can you double check the BLOG_CSS setting in your blog.conf, it still appears to be pulling from $BLOG_URL.

This gave me a new idea! If your blog.conf isn't being loaded correctly, nb may be confused on which path it should use.

To test this theory, could you try something like:
nb -f path/to/my/weblog/blog.conf -b path/to/my/weblog -u main

Also, does nb currently reside in the same directory as your weblog?  Noticed you called nb using './nb' ...
If that's true, I might suggest making the following changes to your base install and runtime environment:
1. move nanoblogger to it's own directory and adding nb to your PATH. (e.g. PATH=$PATH:$HOME/apps/nanoblogger/nb)
2. cd into weblog directory before invoking nb script (e.g. cd path/to/weblog; nb -u main)

Thanks,
Kevin

Dear All,
I have just started a new job, working with a mixed environment.  I have ended
up using an old Mac as my desktop machine.  A couple of days ago I decided to
have a go at getting Nanablogger working (it is just a pretty version of BSD
after all) and it has been a success.

Would anyone be interested in me writing up my experience and possibly adding to
the documentation?

I have to do that to get the program to run. 
If that's true, I might suggest making the following changes to your base install and runtime environment:

2. cd into weblog directory before invoking nb script (e.g. cd path/to/weblog; nb -u main)
I already do this via a bookmark in my konsole .

Hi Sharon,

It's not clear to me how you lost your style sheets.

1. Are the files themselves missing or is the link to the style sheet no longer resolving properly?

The css files are still there and the link to the style sheet hasn't changed, but the index.html has all the posts at the top of the page, with all the other gubbins at the bottom of the page instead of at the right hand side.

2. Have you recently upgraded to a newer version of Nanoblogger?

No, the only change has been that I've changed operating systems from CentOS to Debian 6. I'm still using nanoblogger 3.2.3 as I haven't heard of a way to upgrade without losing all the original posts.

Thanks
Sharon.

I've moved over to Debian 6 from CentOS 5.6 which was relatively
painless except now when I'm trying to document my changeover and I've
lost my stylesheets. Can anyone give me a clue as to how to restore
them please and to get my blog looking okay again. So far I haven't
published my latest article as the file preview looks so awful. This
is in nanoblogger 3.3.2.

Hopefully thank

Sharon,

Thanks for hanging in there. Can you double check the BLOG_CSS setting in your blog.conf, it still appears to be pulling from $BLOG_URL.
# Set the Blog's Stylesheet.
#BLOG_CSS="$BLOG_URL/styles/nb_default.css"
BLOG_CSS="styles/mt_clean.css"

$BLOG_URL is commented out as the above paste shows

This gave me a new idea! If your blog.conf isn't being loaded correctly, nb may be confused on which path it should use.

To test this theory, could you try something like:
nb -f path/to/my/weblog/blog.conf -b path/to/my/weblog -u main
This fails because the blog.conf is in /home/boztu/programmes/nanoblogger-3.2.3/blog/ and not /home/boztu/programmes/nanoblogger-3.2.3/

Also, does nb currently reside in the same directory as your weblog?  Noticed you called nb using './nb' ...
I have to do that to get the program to run. 
If that's true, I might suggest making the following changes to your base install and runtime environment:
1. move nanoblogger to it's own directory and adding nb to your PATH. (e.g. PATH=$PATH:$HOME/apps/nanoblogger/nb)
I'm not sure I understand you here as nanoblogger is already in its own directory at /home/boztu/programmes/nanoblogger-3.2.3/
2. cd into weblog directory before invoking nb script (e.g. cd path/to/weblog; nb -u main)
I already do this via a bookmark in my konsole .

From a puzzled Sharon!

Thanks,
Kevin

Sharon,

Thanks for doing that, you're awesome! Try removing $BLOG_URL from your BLOG_CSS setting in blog.conf.

It should look more like: BLOG_CSS="styles/mt_clean.css" then regenerate your index page using "-u main".
 
The default blog.conf is like this;=
===========================
# Set the URL of your Blog site. e.g. http://www.myweblog.com
# no trailing forward slash required.
BLOG_URL="http://www.sharons.org.uk/taste/"

# Set the Blog's Stylesheet.
#BLOG_CSS="$BLOG_URL/styles/nb_default.css"
BLOG_CSS="styles/mt_clean.css"
===============================

and the blog blog.conf is like this;=
===============================
# Set the URL of your Blog site. e.g. http://www.myweblog.com
# no trailing forward slash required.
BLOG_URL="http://www.sharons.org.uk/taste/"

# Set the Blog's Stylesheet.
#BLOG_CSS="$BLOG_URL/styles/nb_default.css"
BLOG_CSS="styles/mt_clean.css"
===============================


and when i run "./nb -u main" only default gets updated, but it still displays the broken index.html page.

I currently have a 'blog' with articles going back to 2004 and a 'default' going back to 2004 also! Which confuses me too, as i only update and use 'blog'. but both index.html pages show only the broken displays, unfortunately!

I also noticed something funky going on with your articles, but by all means upgrade your copy of NanoBlogger.
It should be an easy upgrade, but always backup as a precautionary.

I'm not going to upgrade until i've got the display of the pages back to as it used to be, then i'll have a go at upgrading. 

Any more ideas please, because i really want to carry on using nanoblogger as i think its great.

Hopefully thanks :)
Sharon.

Kevin

Sharon,

I checked your website[1] and was unable to reproduce the problem. Is there another link you could provide?

I was so embarrassed about the state of the index page that i didn't upload it , I can do that now though so you can see what it currently looks like. Right, the 'bad' index page has been uploaded so you can see what I mean.

Also, this may be a long shot, but where are you hosting the weblog (index.html)? Has it changed with your move to CentOS?

The index.html remains the same as before, in a programmes, nanoblogger folder.

As far as upgrading is concerned, I would encourage you to backup your old posts and go for it!

If I upgrade do I lose all the old posts? Its that that’s stopping me from upgrading.

Thanks
Sharon.

OK, then it isn't in your path. To see if the executable foo is in your
path, run 'which foo'.

Which wouldn't be in your path unless you put it there. So you need:

PATH=$PATH:$HOME/programmes/nanoblogger-3.2.3/

(Assuming $HOME expands to '/home/boztu'. Run 'echo $HOME' to confirm.)

Try it in a konsole session to test it.

To make it permanent, add it to one of your bash setup files. E.g.:
I used to have the following in /etc/profile:

export PATH=${PATH}:/usr/local/bin/nanoblogger

I've now installed nanoblogger with apt-get and nb.conf is in
/etc/nanoblogger/nb.conf and nb is now in /usr/bin/nb so i no longer
have to use ./nb but instead use nb. I'm still trying to find where
the default directory is to place my blog in, and then maybe i cna get
it working properly again?

Ah, that should simplify things.

Put the blog anywhere you want. cd into that directory and away you go.

I put my web site (including my blog) under ~/public_html so I can use
apache on my laptop to preview it before I toss it onto my servers. So I
have ~/public_html/crcweb for the site, and the blog is in
~/public_html/crcweb/blog.

Hi Richard,

I'm not aware of any documented experiences of running NB on the Mac, so please share.
Full disclosure, I developed NB on a Mac.

As far as adding it to the documentation, I'll certainly give it consideration.

In the meantime, would you mind publishing it here first?

Thanks,
Kevin

Dear All,
I have just started a new job, working with a mixed environment. I have ended
up using an old Mac as my desktop machine. A couple of days ago I decided to
have a go at getting Nanablogger working (it is just a pretty version of BSD
after all) and it has been a success.

Would anyone be interested in me writing up my experience and possibly adding to
the documentation?

regards

Richard

I've finally solved this by looking at the source code of my web page
and seeing that it was pointed at a non-existent style sheet! It
existed on the website but not in the local directory, so its now
running more or less okay.

Thanks all for your input, its been a learning experience!

Sharon.
