amazing what i'm learning from my mistakes. my latest 'discovery' is about the calendar and how it builds the link targets. turns out that i can use directories inside the yyyy/mm/ roots containing the daily text files and have the calendar automatically link to them. with that, i can simply edit the index file in that day's folder to integrate custom 'stuff' on that page for the day, apply custom templates, and IMAGES that are used just for that day.
I ran into this by accident and like it. It means a few changes to my 'day' pages and perhaps a tweak to the calendar which will alert me to existing files for that day. certainly a tweak to radio.weblog.publish so that it doesnt make useless txt files for days where a dir exists.
perhaps i'm just running into artifacts that were dumbed down from userland's higher end tools. neat anyway!
