    Looking For A Good Content Organizer For WordPress (Solved!)

    I recently imported a decades worth of tweets on my site, and the hashtags were automatically added as regular tags. Now I want to go through and wrangle them. I know I can do a lot of this in core WordPress, but I’m hoping I can find some utilities that will make this easier.

  • A Litany of Potential Improvements.

    After importing over a decade of tweets into my site, I had several improvements to offer to the import utility I used. I compiled my changes to the code, and submitted it as a pull request, detailing what I needed, and why.

    WHEW what a process! I managed to get all of my tweets that I exported and deleted from Twitter two years ago, all imported into this site, including all of the photos and videos. I think I can finally say that I have centralized all of my content through alexstandiford.com now. Huge thanks to Shawn Hooper for building this importer, as it gave me a big leg up in the process. From here, it’s just a matter of wrangling all of the tags, and generally organizing the content a little better, but the fact that it’s in WordPress is a huge first step.

    I’ll share a blog post that goes into the stack, and details of the process soon.

    I just realized that the Jetpack app supports group blocks(!)

    This means that if I want to publish a thread, I can put each intended “post” in individual group inside a single WP post. That allows me to thread things, but also delineate between the items for threads on social.

    It’s not quite as good as a native block, but it’s definitely a step in the right direction. If only I could register my own block in the Jetpack app…sigh. I wish that was possible, because I could make a block that is such a better experience than what I have now.
