@endonend I’m enjoying Crucial Tracks, and have a couple of feature requests for you!

First, could you do anything about the Markdown getting passed through raw in the RSS feed? I noticed it on your most recent post, as well as my own. I’ve edited mine to fix it, but that’s a bit tedious.

It might need @manton to help, though. I seem to recall @dave writing a couple of years back about an extension to RSS where you could send the pure Markdown. The receiving side could then choose to process the Markdown, rather than the HTML.

Alternatively maybe render the Markdown into HTML before sending, so we get <em>word</em> instead of _word_ and so on?

Second, the post titles. At the very least I’d like to be able to select the date format (so it would say ‘18 April’ instead of ‘April 18’). Better would be to include the song title. Best would be to allow us to edit the title before saving.

Excellent app/service, though, and I’m looking forward to seeing how it develops.

@devilgate all great feedback! Thank you. I’ve noticed the markdown/RSS thing and it’s at the top of my list to look at this weekend. Will see what I can do about RSS titles too. Customization of that might be a good feature since RSS has many uses.

@devilgate @manton that was my initial thought too! Thanks for the insight Manton.

@endonend @manton Thanks, both. I don’t know why the angle-brackets of my em tags got turned into HTML entities above, though. I quoted them with backticks, so I’d expect them to have rendered as-is. This stuff is complicated!

@devilgate I just pushed a change to help with RSS feed markdown to HTML – and it seems to be working! Let me know if you see any issues.
