mu.nu - Fighting attention deficit disorder wherever it - ooh, shiny!
May 05, 2005
Rusty posted earlier about the comments section remembering your information. I started playing with the templates and using his code and the code posted at Eric's Grumbles, I was able to get the Individual Archive Posts working. But I wasn't able to get the pop-up comments window to remember the information.
Being 99% OCD and 100% Geek it bothered me that I couldn't figure it out. Then it hit me, after I finished rubbing my head I tested out my thought. The problem is the:var HOST = <$MTBlogHost$>;line in the code. If you change this in line in both the Comment Listing template and the Individual Archive Template to:
var HOST = 'mu.nu';It saves the information and it’s readily accessible. Now for the nifty part: It remembers the information for any of the mu.nu blogs you visit. Hopefully this helps.
Later,
phin

var HOST = '';
Thats the line you want to change
var HOST = 'mu.nu';
As Eric noted, this won't really affect the blogs doing Inline Comment Posting though, unless everybody switched the Host over to mu.nu. Then it would be a common cookie and the default information will populate everywhere.

There's a problem with IE that prevents it from remembering cookies set by mu.nu (or any other 2-letter domain name). Works fine in every other browser in the world except the one most people use. Grrr.

Update on the post folks, looks like it only works with firefox for now.

If the users are running the latest security patch they're half way there. The second portion and something most people won't do is; edit the registry to allow for the “Special Domain”.
If someone does decide to edit the registry be sure to reverse the last portion of the domain, thus the .nu would become un. otherwise it won’t fix anything.

Could you answer me another question, though? How do you get your munu blogroll to appear expanded in the HTML, instead of as nu.js? Do you use MT includes? If so, how do you do it? It seems to make a difference for the TTLB Ecosystem and Technorati.

<?php include "http://blogroll.mu.nu/mli.i"; ?> will include the blogroll as an alphabetically-sorted HTML list.
The available blogrolls:
mu.i - plain text, alphabetical
nu.i - plain text, chronological
mli.i - list, alpha
nli.i - list, chrono
pulldown.i - pulldown list, alpha
pulldownd.i - pulldown list, chrono

2. From there click on Individual Entry Archive.
3. In the template body as you scroll down you'll see a line that says: var HOST = ;
4. We want to change this line to read:
var HOST = 'mu.nu';
5. Click the save button, for right now you can ignore the message saying you need to rebuild.
6. Click the Templates button again.
7. Scroll down to the Miscellaneous Templates. Beside the Comment Listing Template click the edit button.
8. In the template body as you scroll down you'll see a line that says: var HOST = ;
9. We want to change this line to read:
var HOST = 'mu.nu';
10. Click the save button.
11. At the top of the page click the Text that says rebuild. The message should say: "Your template changes have been saved. REBUILD to see those changes reflected on your public site."
12. Choose to rebuild all the files.
This should take care of it. One thing Pixy found is there is a bug that Microsoft is aware of that keeps Internet Explorer from accepting Cookies from Two Digit Domains. But this should take care of it for Firefox.

This topic was really educational and nicely written. I approach to do some additional exploration on this. Gives thanks for sharing this timely data. We require additional like <strong><a href="http://www.bestcheaplouboutin.com/">Cheap Christian Louboutin shoes</a></strong>.
