I should work on it more before showing it off, but I can’t wait any longer lol.
What do you think of it so far?
This is still a prototype mind you and I’m still working on the aesthetics, but what we have so far is that every essay will automatically be transcluded on this page, ordered from newest to oldest.
edit: there’s now pictures to illustrate the essays
My big question I think is: is this more conducive to reading and getting clicks than the legacy page? (https://en.prolewiki.org/wiki/ProleWiki:Essays).
Secondly, does this look pretty self-explanatory to you? There are only two essays in it mind you because it’s still a prototype, but we have more than 20-30 to put on this page eventually.
What more would you see to spice this page up? And maybe drive the blog style home a little bit more.
Thanks for the feedback, unfortunately I don’t think it’s possible to remove the template from appearing on the essay, at least not in v1. Maybe we’ll edit the essays to integrate that part or maybe I’ll find a solution in a dream
Could you just put the summary in it’s own little hidden block and then set up the CSS for the homepage to override the hidden setting? Or vice versa? So that it’s still there and can still be fetched by the homepage but just isn’t rendered on the essay page. I’ve never played with wiki setups though, so maybe that level of HTML/CSS junk isn’t really feasible.
lmao you’re a fucking genius, I had to use !important on the display and this was only possible after I’d made the required templates, but yes it works.
Yep, looks good on my browsers now, phone and computer. 10/10 no more notes
