TIL Emacs org2blog package will publish a region if selected instead of the full buffer if one is not careful. I expect it’s by design and not a bug. Could actually prove useful as long as I don’t keep tripping over it. #emacs #org2blog https://github.com/org2blog/org2blog

@pfefferle the beginning was earlier than that: I hadn't used WP in months due to a corrupt file in #org2blog so I fixed that and noticed nothing was going in or out like it did before, so went looking for tools to test ActivityPub things and webfinger.net was all I found.
The acct is @garym but the site-in-progress is https://radio.teledyn.com/blog

So excited that I was able to write a blog post in #orgmode #emacs and publish it to my #classicpress blog from within orgmode! The new post ain't much to look at, and there's no content to speak of. Just a proof of concept. And it proofed!

this is quite likely my case here, especially when the #Lilypond issue only appears when generating HTML from within #Org2Blog but straight Org works as expected, and then #OrgRoam rests on Org, but is unlikely to be in sync with dev-org.
I often find, to do what I want, I'm needing to compile from source rather than use apt packages, but there are often these side effects. I gripe about it, but it's my own damn fault for colouring outside the lines 😉

@choanmusic the details are at the start of that thread, but basically it started when using #org2blog to post to #wordpress, #lilypond examples compiled to png, but uploaded the full page, not the cropped. Using dev orgmode solved this… but broke #orgroam

@yantar92 I'm nearly certain I read about how to do this somewhere, but the notion is to keep local copies of the #org2blog pages so you can update an article by loading it into emacs and then republishing.
When I save the buffer it is given the buffer name as the filename, and when loaded it is recognized as org mode but there is no #org2blog menu, and run with M-x results in null value errors.
I'm nearly certain there's a simple solution.
-
It may not be a valid strategy, but I cloned #orgmode from git, installed requisite texinfo and texi2html packages, did a sudo make install and restarted #Emacs — now #LilyPond blocks are rendered as source 😕. Nicely cropped source 🤣
My guess is, along with defining font-lock-reference-face, I'd done something manually before my first (full-page rendered) #Org2Blog tries that was lost in the restart.
I'm also hunting a way to save drafts locally, a puzzle for another day.

The most frustrating software errors are those no one else seems to have. I'm using #Emacs with #Org2Blog to #WordPress, I can inline LaTeX equations fine, but inline blocks of #LilyPond renders two PNG files, one is a full-page with my music example at the top, the other is named <image>.cropped.png and is the image I need inserted, but Org2Blog is only uploading and inserting the full-page; my page setup options are the same as the online examples that display the cropped images just fine. 🙁
-
@garym whoa! Not one of those #org2blog #wordpress #lilypod images made it to the #axtivitypub Fediverse! Ugh!
This is not encouraging…

Hello, Buffer
we do these things not because they are easy, but because we thought they would … Continue reading “Hello, Buffer”

I get the impression perhaps #Emacs #org2blog may be a dead project? The git pages are teeming with open issues and the instructions for css are ignored or stripped out in transit.
But it is SO close.
Or it could just be decades of accumulated cruft in my configuration. I'm guessing there are work arounds, like just plunking css directly into my #wordpress theme. That still leaves my footnotes all askew while the Two Wrongs blog continues to look beautiful 😔
-
Why do you suppose #Emacs #org2blog would insert a plain empty P tag AFTER the footnote number and before the .footpara? Minor mode conflict? Bad choice of #wordpress theme? Past-life crimes for which I must atone?
-
Now that I have my blog showing up in the #fediverse as @matt and I can use #emacs with #org2blog now I want to hook #denote and org2blog together. I'm thinking that is going to be a capture template of some sort... but that will have to wait for another day, or at least tomorrow.
