Added keywords, etc..

20 Dec 2005 2:40 (Edited: 20 Dec 2005 2:40)

Alright, now you can enter keywords for your pictures and blog entries. Currently we don't use the keywords for anything really useful, but the keywords are used as meta keywords for the picture/blog entry page if they exist, so search engines will use them and find your pics and blogs better. Additionally, blog entries can now have "article filenames", which will add to the URL of the blog entry, making it easier to know based on the URL itself, what it is about.

Furthermore, to prevent layout hiccups, now all links pasted without [ url ] tags around it, will be shown as "[ link ]" text rather than the full URL.

Also some other minor changes here and there have been completed and I've also improved the sidebar helps in management pages, at least slightly.

  (copy of my response to another post concerning the new AD weblog pages)
  I like it ! It is a perfect companion to my MP3lizard.com music download page - it provides the blogging , links and photo features in a very user friendly format . My Afterdawn blog-page has a link to the MP3lizard page and vice versa , making it easy for visitors to find either one - and Google points nicely to either page via my song titles and lyric phrases !
  My downloads have increased drastically over the last few weeks , no doubt due to the new AD blog page . I have had a lot of fun with it and I hope the "experiment" is a success - it has been for me ! 3900+ downloads and 4 "Top 5 Metal" songs to date !
  I think the AD blog page is a great idea and it will catch on big-time as word gets around . Thanks again AfterDawn / MP3lizard ! You Rock !

  Actually, we have plans to roll some of the ideas on these blog pages over to the MP3Lizard.com as well. MP3Lizard has been "abandoned" for years now in terms of development and we plan to change that later this year and make a major facelift to the site.
  
  But again, thanks for the feedback, much appreciated :-)
