| First Community Patch & "Tweaks" | Fri, 15 Jul 2022 |
pblog has received its first community patch! By "community" I mean someone other than myself has helped make this blog generator even better. So special thanks to Matthew Graybosch for contributing to this humble project and patching in some solid quality of life improvements.
This is why open source is great: smarter people can help fix your mashed-up spaghetti code!

Some Features Left Behind...
Also suggested in this patch was the addition of more advanced image manipulation via ImageMagick. This additional feature was pretty great from my testing but I felt as though adding an extra dependency and slightly more complex settings to pblog was moving things further from simplicity.
BUT - that doesn't mean you can't take this great feature with you!
Introducing "Tweaks"
I feel that pblog should always remain as simple as possible at the core. Let people get something up-and-running with the least amount of friction as possible. But I know that some users might want to squeeze just a little bit more out of it. This is where the new Tweaks section comes in.
Feel free to check out the official Tweaks page and don't be afraid to add your own by opening a patch-set!
That's all for now, thanks for reading!
