Looks like I am on a triennial blog refresh cycle.

New:

Regressions:

  • direction of next/previous buttons (also missing from posts)
  • post category labels

@ericgregorich Thanks, Eric. I will also perhaps get around to looking at the same. Any excuse to avoid real work. :)

@dgs I updated the Cards Theme to show the categories on the Post page. I'm still looking at the post navigation. That may come a little later.

@ericgregorich With 1.1.6 category pages (/categories/etc...) are now showing all posts, so I think something got broken along the way.

@dgs oops. I'll fix in a few minutes.

@dgs I just pushed 1.1.7 with a fix to the category pages. It appears to be working for me. Let me know if you have any more problems with it.

@ericgregorich Looks good for me too. Many thanks.

Request for future update: could you match the category styling to that for archive_categories?

@ericgregorich Not a 'problem' but on longer posts the reading time line would be better to break before listing the categories.

I can actually edit these with a custom theme, but hopefully my thoughts are useful for the theme in general - please push back on any that you would rather not consider. :)

@dgs I agree. I'll spend some more time on it soon and let you know.

@dgs I pushed v1.1.8, which fixes the category styling on the posting page. I had to change some layout and CSS to get it to show up correctly when Reading Time is showing/not showing. I hope this helps. I think it looks much better. Thanks!

@ericgregorich A question - it looks like the card theme shows 25 posts but then there doesn't seem to be a way to show older posts. Intentional design? bug?

@jemostrom I’m not having a problem with this. When I change the 25 to 2 posts in my test site the navigation links appear at the bottom.

Are you on v1.1.8? This was an issue I fixed a few versions ago.

@ericgregorich Yep, I installed it today. My site, micro.mostrom.eu, contains 143 posts but I don't see any navigations links after the 25th. I also tested by adding a new post so that the last post wasn't an image post (thinking it might hide the navigation links) but there is no difference if the 25th is a text-only post. Am I missing something?

@jemostrom do you have any customizations to the theme files? The layouts/index.html should look like this with the pagination at the bottom.

@ericgregorich Sorry about the late reply. As far as I know I have no modification to the theme (I don't remember that I've ever tried to do any customization) and the only plugin I have installed is "All photos" (I tried uninstalling it but it doesn't make any difference). However, I discovered what caused this, I had "Paginate home page" turned off. I interpreted this as there would be an infinite scroll, but since micro.blog is a static site it doesn't make sense - so it must mean something else.
