I noticed yesterday that the "read more" links in my summary RSS feed weren't working correctly—people reading my summaries via RSS were clicking through and getting errors. So, I fixed this by making the following changes.

The problem was that there was a mismatch between the hard coded (HTML) URLs in the blojsom plugin called show-me-more, which generates these "read more" links, and the URLs I use for my permalinks, which are different from blojsom's standard permalinks.

So, I created a new variant show-me-more plugin class to work around this. I just whipped out this class, and I am making it available in case anyone wants to look at it or use it. The only change is really in how the HTML is hard coded in this class—I just hard coded different HTML to suit my needs.

But, what I would like to do is write a more general version where you can specify a little HTML template in the properties file, and the Java class will simply do a little string replacement to put in the correct URL. I will make this available when I do this, and, of course, I would be happy if it is good/useful enough to become part of the blojsom distribution.

FYI, I am lazing about today. Anastasia and I plan to see the San Francisco fireworks tonight.
