Ok, I think everything is sorted out after the switch to LightPress. Comments are working properly again, feeds are fixed (despite my best efforts to break them over the last few days) and I think all of the permalink & style issues have been sorted out.
I can’t blame this on LightPress, the 1.0.0 release is solid and works fine if you don’t tinker with the code. But I’m constantly trying to “improve” things and as a result I’ve been busy fixing my own bugs! I’m happy to report that my tags/keywords plugin for LightPress is working very nicely now — if you wondered why my feeds were scrambled, this was the culprit. It’s not ready for general release just yet, but soon I hope.
Rest assured that if you’re using any of my WordPress plugins, they’ll continue to be supported. After all, they’re still running “behind the scenes” on this site, even if LightPress is handling page rendering.
Things that have been removed during the switch:
- Comment thread feeds — this isn’t supported in LightPress yet, but I’ve added it to the list.
- RSS 0.91 feeds — there’s a limit to how many old formats can/should be supported. I’d recommend switching to the Atom feed, if only for it’s support of relative URI’s.
