Subscribe To Comments 2.1 Plug-in

A great plug-in to automatically post updates to commentators but low on documentation. This blog explains the basics but forgets to describe the [manager_link] feature in the options, i.e. how dynamically to link to the subscription manager.

In the option settings it says, “Customize the messages shown to different people. Use [manager_link] to insert the URI to the Subscription Manager.”

If you want to make the URL around the term “link to subscription manager” you’ll have to write:

<a href=”[manager_link]”>link to subscription manager</a>

That’s it.

P.s. An alternative plug-in is Filosofo enroll-comments.

Aftermath of the number 40

Inviterede foran flagstang
Celebrated my 40th birthday on midsummer’s eve in Denmark. Guests can login here. I only got one complaint from almost all invited - they wanted to see each other more often - that’s the words from true friends until I realized that it didn’t necessarily involve me…

Tailored Internet shirts

After an initial search on shirtmakers with minimal requirements such as monogramming, shipping to Denmark etc. I found three. In general they all provide excellent service but when it comes to quality - taste of colour and design is your choice - this is the conclusion:

Tailored Shirts are of good quality but I found the collars not being the same pictured on their site. After returning the shirts they sent me the same shirts back sewn differently. Not bad but even then the collars seem to bend after a few hours of wearing (in spite of stiffeners).

If you want 100% customization this is the place but do yourself a favour, buy 1 test shirt for a start.

T.M.LEWIN shirts has very nice design but no monogramming! The Poplin 100 shirts are easy to iron but stay away from the shirts which have two contrasting yarns weaved together (end-on-end weaving) - impossible to iron with a good result. Note, stiffeners are made out of metal.

Charles Tyrwhitt (pronounced ‘territ’) has a very nice service as the two others… even though an order did not arrive, which is not their mistake, they just made a refund. Bought some shoes which I returned due to wrong sizing but got the right ones after a second go.

I hope I’ve made the choice easier.

First post (inspite of the date)

Finally, got the tool, got the theme, got the content… well almost. I’ll be posting in past tense, i.e. pretend that my posts were written earlier in order to get the stories in the right sequence.

Until later.

History revealed

Ripping of the old tapestry revealed the old painting from 1954 which I think is better than retro.

Small wonders of nature

This is what expected us in the early morning on our ceiling windows - unbelievable. It had rained the evening before and apparently overnight slow freezing occured.
