• I think I've done it. I got all post content importing how I'd like. I've got view to redirect requests to old Wordpress post urls / categories / categories feeds to their new uuid based permalink. I can customize the site name. And I've added pagination to all of the public views.

    Now all I have to do is actually make the switch!
  • Got image rewriting working so all posts will use the Tanzawa standard photo insert...and noticed a bug when I import images.

    Photos taken with an iPhone rely on the exif data to indicate the proper orientation. However, I strip all exif data from photos when I save them for saving size and enhancing privacy....

    No exif data to orient the image and vertical images appear sideways. Β The solution is simple: Β rotate the image before stripping / extracting the exif data. Thankfully the fix is simple.

  • I've got streams being set properly for each category. The last bit is to clean up the content automatically and rewrite / swap out image tags. Particularly photos posted with Sunlit. Posts made with Sunlit are displayed as an <a> tag (which links to your original image with a "-scaled" suffix) and an <img> tag with a source that proxies through micro.blog.

    It also has an attachment of the second photo, which I am automatically inserting into the post.

    I need to extract all <a> tags, detect if their href attribute has a "-scaled" in it, and strip that. Then I can look in my database for that attachment entry in my db and rewrite the tag as a Tanzawa image insert. Shouldn't take too long. Maybe tomorrow.
  • Posting with Wordpress feels so clunky. So many buttons and check boxes when all I want is to just click a button and type. I'm really looking forward to getting my blog over to my own system so I can move from a generic cms/blogging system to something streamlined specifically for blogging, and most importantly, how I want to blog.

    I'm already full of ideas for fun pages I'll able to make once my data is in a proper relational format and in a database that supports geographic queries. But first I need to finish porting my data. So close I can taste it.
