About This Template · Wednesday July 11, 2007
This is a work in progress, but will eventually be available as a Textpattern template. It is designed so that you can add one section to your existing Textpattern site, “Go,” and use it as a custom start page. Though such pages are easily created via iGoogle, Netvibes, and a dozen other services, I’ve been building my own for a decade, and this is just a continuation of that in a new form (plus a chance for me to learn some jQuery).
There is a faux demo here, and a real version I am using on my site. Neither is final. Both have a style switcher, and show/hide behavior on elements (shown by default, set to “hide” via a custom field per article). Each article is used to create either a list of links, or pull in an RSS feed from an outside source.
Still To Do: Rework show/hide to be less element-specific. Make each element draggable/droppable within the first three columns.
