Basic Steps ∞
1) Restore from XML ∞
<a href="https://blog.spiralofhope.com/wp-admin/import.php?import=wordpress">Import from WordPress eXtended RSS (WXR)</a>
2) Adjust configuration ∞
(TODO - take the notes from below, on this page)
3) Install and configure plugins ∞
WordPress plugins - ( Actively-used plugins )
Each plugin's page has its own configuration notes.
Note that plugins can probably be copied from a local cache, though that method is untested.

I delete all of these, although it would be fine to leave these alone since they're not shown.
Permalinks ∞
-
(o) Custom Structure /%post_id%/%postname%.html
- This format lets me (1) easily see my short URL, (2) provide a pretty, SEO-friendly URL, (3) have a re-nameable URL that won't break, (4) leverage a side-effect of the url rewrite that lets https://blog.spiralofhope.com/__/TITLE use TITLE as a title search which visits the first/complete match.
- While
/?p=%post_id%/%postname%.html
will work, it requires all kinds of fucking around for tag URLs, and screws up admin links like https://blog.spiralofhope.com/wp-admin/edit.php?post_status=draft&post_type=post

TODO ∞
Accesskeys ∞
Is there a way to implement accesskeys? If my code gets automatically updated, then perhaps not.
-
alt-f
for the search field.- I'm using a keyworded bookmark with Pale Moon:

- I'm using a keyworded bookmark with Pale Moon:
-
alt-e
to edit the currently-selected item.- May not be feasible. The list view may use the same identifier as when looking at just one single entry. Meh.
- I could just modify the top floating bar, which has an edit link when I'm viewing a single editable page.
-
Editing an entry:
alt-s
savealt-p
preview. Also: Is there a way to switch to that preview tab? Or maybe make it a popup? Right now it only switches to it if it doesn't exist.
Failed attempt one: A child theme with a custom functions.php ∞
I've tried various angles to inject accesskey="e"
into the a href
but I've had no success.
JQuery doesn't seem to be operating. I've tried various ways of loading it, but it's a no-go.
-
digwp was a pointer, but I can't get it to work, even copying the example code verbatim.
Failed attempt two: can't remember ∞
Some other more direct thingy which doesn't edit the admin bar but instead tries to modify the 'edit this' link at the top-left of a page.
