Shakugan no Shana Second 2

I LOL’ed a lot during the first half of the episode (right from the moment the BGM and Alastor intro came on due to the Shana-tan effect) and enjoyed the action in the second half. Got an early scene of my favourite aspect of Shana x Wilhelmina interaction i.e. an embarrassed Shana shooing Wilhelmina away and the increasingly flappable Meido Manipulator of Bandages looking surprised and hurt.

Zaku see Zaku do (RSS full feed, tags, archive fix)

Readers who view this blog via RSS may noticed that, inspired by the Sea Slug! Team, full feed (with <!–more–> tag workaround) has been enabled and hotlinking protection disabled for Google Reader. In addition, the Simple Spoiler plugin and formatting has been updated.

Next up was trying out tags after reading Owen S’s exhortation. I’m still in the process of deciding how to use this new WP 2.3 feature. At present, I’ve pared down non-anime series categories (retaining blog admin, koma, loot, musings and what) and am using tags to relate posts containing elements that cut across series. So far the most used tags have been oneesama and yuri. ;)

Then I noticed a rather annoying problem: I could only get a maximum of seven posts when viewing by month, category or tag even if said month, category or tag had more than seven posts. Hadn’t noticed this before as I normally use the Manage Posts menu under Site Admin rather than the ELA Archive view but the problem became obvious as I started fooling around with tags.

After riding the merry-go-round of checking the Wordpress Codex and forum, the K2 wiki, my template navigation code, K2 archive settings, Extended Live Archive plugin settings, WP Options Reading settings and so on, I finally discovered that the cause was due to the K2 files being located one sub-directory further down the themes sub-directory (themes > K2_RC1 > k2) than it actually should have been (themes > k2) after switching between the default theme and K2. It’s so good to have “<< Older   Page 1 of x” back! And so that’s why the custom banner uploader didn’t work either! Doh. Funnily enough, everything else seemed to worked fine before today’s fix. And to think this not inconsiderable navigational problem has been sitting under my nose for almost three weeks! :(

[BTW since WP 2.3, I can't see Incoming Links either.]
