I’m sorry about the total silence here on The Developer’s Corner (though I have been continuing to write on my other blog) but there really hasn’t been much to write about. Sinsolis did a fantastic set of icons for the new toolbar items in Blog and I should thank him for being so kind all the time but I haven’t even had the time to use them yet in Blog since I’ve been so busy with other things. At the same time, development was stuck anyway for a while now because I’ve run into certain problems with the WPTools component. It does a fantastic job of being a WYSIWYG HTML editor component but has problems with certain things like inserting hyperlinks or images – it does those well enough but doesn’t leave room for customization. For instance, I want to let the user specify a target for a hyperlink but the method provided by WPTools to insert a hyperlink does not allow this. So I’m trying to find a workaround but being short of time means that I’m not making much progress. I’m sure I’ll get to it eventually but till then, I can only ask for your patience …

Thought you were gone on holidays or somethin’

Busy? That’s o.k. Patient? In Italy (where I spent a few years) it’s the code of living. “Ci vuole la pazienza sempre!”

But we’re with you Fahim!

Whenver it is done :p The work is going very, very slowly due to many reasons plus new features are piling up daily. Fortunately, I’m not that far along on the code to have to do complete rewrites again … Whenever it is released, I’m sure a lot of people will be happy but just have no date to give anybody yet 🙁
