TSLP Fixes

Published on 27th of December, 2007 in TSL Profiles. 1 Comment

I’ve added an admin function to TSL Profiles that fixes up people appearing as having joined SL in 1/1/1970. Here’s the output:

Accounts needing repair: 10

Finished. 10 succeeded, 0 failed.

Following this, I am reasonably confident that all TSLP accounts now contain accurate data. Yay.

TSL Profiles Blog theme updated

Published on 21st of December, 2007 in TSL Profiles. 0 Comments

The theme used by TSLP blog by default has been changed to more closely match that of TSLP itself. This means that all blogs using the default theme will now resemble TSLP. This change does not affect blogs that have changed their theme.

The difference is best shown by the thumbnails.

TSL Profiles – now with blogs!

As part of the continuing useless additions to the TSL Profiles service, every user now automatically gets a free blog when they sign up – this has been applied retroactively.

The format for URLs is yourname.tslblogs.com – for example, mine is at katharineberry.tslblogs.com (which is by and large a copy of this blog, thanks to WordPress’ import/export function). These blogs are running on WordPress, and carry over many of the features thereof (no plugin/theme installation for security reasons, however).

Logins are (well, should be) unified with TSL Profiles’ – logging into one logs you into the other, although logging out can be done independently. There is still much work to be done in terms of integrating the two, but I’m working on it. :P

Also coming soon: Automated posting to Flickr from µBlog postcards (you can enable/disable Flickr already, but nothing happens when you do).

And no, I don’t expect anybody to actually use the thing. But there you go.

Email down

My mailserver seems to have died, and I don’t have time to fix it now (gragh!)

Anyone who wants to mail me therefore cannot do so at the usual firstname at thisdomain, and should thus do so at firstname at tslemporium.com, which is working fine right now.

This also means the TSLP pics address is dead.

TSL Profiles being enhanced

Published on 13th of August, 2007 in Development and TSL Profiles. 2 Comments

I have just added a new feature to TSL Profiles‘ µBlogs – you can now add photos to it using Second Life’s built-in snapshot sending ability.

To use this:

  1. Create an account (TG only)
  2. Take a snapshot
  3. Send it as a postcard to blog [asperand] tslprofiles [dot] com. (Hint: “asperand” is the technical name for “@”)
  4. Fill in the message as the µBlog entry, and the subject as a caption for the photo

For an example, visit my TSLP page and click the “µBlog” tab. Be sure to click the photos!

There is more to come along these lines… ;)
