I made an aggregator site weeks a go. One of the aggregated site got lower expectation. I think it’s because anyone prefer to read from this aggregator site than go to a “real” site. The aggreator used RSS tech, i should modify WordPress RSS. The aggregator site only read the title and author. How about the content? The idea is to make people go to a “real” site, that’s why i don’t need the content shows in RSS.
I choose to modify RSS2 because it is suitable with the theme.
WordPress RSS2 file located inside wp-includes folder. Duplicate feed-rss2.php to avoid any mistakes in the future, you can use the duplicate file is something goes wrong. Open feed-rss2.php with notepad or other editors.
We don’t need the content, find this line :
<guid isPermaLink="false"><?php the_guid(); ?></guid>
You’ll get the content xml code.
<?php if (get_option('rss_use_excerpt')) : ?>
<description>
<![CDATA[<?php the_excerpt_rss() ?>]]>
</description>
<?php else : ?>
<description>
<![CDATA[<?php the_excerpt_rss() ?>]]>
</description>
<?php if ( strlen( $post->post_content ) > 0 ) : ?>
<content:encoded>
<![CDATA[<?php the_content() ?>]]>
</content:encoded>
<?php else : ?>
<content:encoded>
<![CDATA[<?php the_excerpt_rss() ?>]]>
</content:encoded>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php endif; ?>
<wfw:commentRss>
<?php echo comments_rss(); ?>
</wfw:commentRss>Delete all. Save and upload. Test the new RSS2 feed by clicking the link from theme
I just got back from out of town. I visited my mom and sister, who will go to Switzerland next month. I have a tech blog and I wrote a few post before went out of town. You probably read about posting to the future in WordPress on WordPress FAQ. I used the technique. The posts publish automatically when the day and time sets in the posts come.
Write post as usual. Open “Post Timestamp” on right bar. Pick the date and time when you want the post to appear automatically. Click Publish button.
The post won’t show on your current view, if the date and time not same with your set.
This technique come handy when you are on vacation or away.
My last post said about Safari error when we write and edit WordPress content. However there is an easy way to override this error, i turned off visual editing option on User tabs, so Easy!. This way you can write and edit WordPress content without worry about the final result, no apple span style!
The main target of the design is to create more attractive design than a previous design.

Safari for Windows become my favorite browser other than Mozilla Firefox.
What i like from Safari for Windows, everything looks beautiful on Safari.
They makes website look bold, clear and sharp. They also handle CSS good.
I always screen capture web sites with Safari.
If the Safari is great with Interface, but hold your breath for programming error, e.g
Yahoo Mail (AJAX) doesn’t support Safari, i get a lot of error when using Safari to access my Yahoo Mail. Yahoo put a warning before enter Mail Window. I guess it’s because they don’t test Yahoo Mail on Safari. I find this lack on other app, Horde Mail, Safari doesn’t view Horde properly although I use fast internet connection.
I find Safari annoying when editing web contents, e.g WordPress Admin.
The outcome between the editor and the web site is different, everything looks great when add paragraph to news or posts, but when i see the results, no paragraph, no space even though I already add paragraph and space. I see the code (xhtml/css), apparently Safari add its own code with id Apple-. I hope Apple don’t force this too much, cause we need a browser that can handle variety languages, especially standard languages
I realize Safari still in beta version. But I hope Apple fix this flaws, and someday beats IE, who knows.

I say that this is News Look blends with Corporate Look into one single site. I designed and coded the site. I also convert the advertisement section into a Plugin
Light Planet/Light Blog
My partner want his sites and other sites from our friends to be included in this site.
I only think to make the site updates the contents automatically. That’s when RSS technology used. This An Aggregator Site (a planet ?) and we still can posting from the site.

So Simple is my first free wordpress theme. I’ll continue to maintainance the theme as long as i can.
I noticed a few days ago that there was a bug in a comment form. The comment form couldn’t submit any comment to WordPress database.
I fixed it and upload a new file for comment.
Download So Simple Comment Form and replace comments.php in a so simple directory.
