Over the past few months we have been tweaking the usability of the Geekswithblogs.net Admin Tool for editing posts.  We definitely suggest using Windows Live Writer for publishing you blogs due to the awesome plugins and support of image uploads, we understand the need for a non-Windows editor for posts or updates.  One of the bugs submitted to us in the usage of our text editor was reformatting of posts when you publish from WLW and then make changes from the admin tool.  The tool was eating up all that good formatting and making the post ugly.  Well we fixed the bug and now it should keep the nice editing from WLW.  The example plugin I have used to ensure the good formatting is “Code Snippet” for WLW, which is totally awesome.

Sample Code:

private void SetCommentControls()
{
    if (!Config.CurrentBlog.CommentsEnabled)
    {
        chkComments.Enabled = false;
        chkCommentsClosed.Enabled = false;
    }
}

If you see any other bugs on Geekswithblogs.net, please submit them to support@geekswithblogs.com

Thanks,

Over the past few weeks we have been cleaning up the skins to support most modern browsers and monitor resolutions.  This will cause your content area to have more space and support larger images.  If you see any problems, please email us at support@geekswithblogs.com and we will get back to you ASAP.

 

We have also added some changes to the “Share Link” feature to make it a little cleaner and support for Facebook, Twitter, and Technorati.  We will add G+ once they support the ability to publish from a link without their plugin.  It is hard to fit the plugin into all the skins.

 

If you would like us to make another modification to the system, please let us know as well.  We are always open to suggestions.  We really want to bring the homepage into the 21st century as well as publish some video tutorials for new bloggers and members.
