WYSI-what now?
WYSIWYG: what you see is what you get. Hopefully.
After a short night of Dr. Pepper and jQuery, rich-text editing is available. It’s in true WYSIWYG style: the page is presented as it looks when you load it, only when you click on the content you can add to it.
It’s a first step towards the full functionality that I want to eventually add, notably lacking controls for image insertion, links, or even bold/italic text. ERb content (i.e. anything in
<%…%>sections) are placed inside a<span>which is hidden by the CSS: they’re preserved, but not editable. (I don’t intend to make them editable via the web editor; if you want to insert ERb content, edit the files in the /pages directory.)Still, not bad for a start!

Authentication Makes It Happen
Access to the site overview and page editor are now modulo authentication against the config/auth.passwd file.
If you lack this file, the site is basically a historyless wiki—so make sure you
script/basic_user add your-username >> config/auth.passwdtoday!

RSS—Everywhere!
As of this morning’s
db422ba…commit, each and every page can now have an RSS feed listing its children. Just point your feed reader at http://my.domain/path/to/page.xml and Capefish will serve up RSS 2.0 for that page’s children. Checkitout: RSS for this page.
