Movable Style

Chad has written a new RubLog template that is compatible with MovableStyle stylesheets. All you have to do to include a style in your blog is.

1. Get the latest CVS of RubLog
2. Choose a style from MovableStyle and download the corresponding stylesheet (and any other required images).
3. Alter your rublog,cgi to use Chad’s template with the new stylesheet. This requires two changes.
   1. In the line where you create the blog, use "movable" as a parameter to CGIRequest.new.
   2. In the parameter settings, set the name of the external stylesheet to use.

A typical configuration might look like the following:

    blog = RubLog.new("/Users/cvs/blog", CGIRequest.new("movable")) do
      set_top_title                 "My Blog"
      set_max_entries_per_page      5
      set_rss_description           "Dave's Weblog"
      set_rss_image_title           'PragDave'
      set_rss_image_link            'http://pragprog.com/pragdave'
      set_rss_image_url             'http://pragprog.com/scary.png'
      set_rss_encoding              'iso-8859-1'
      set_copyright                 "#{Time.now.year} Dave Thomas"
      set_external_stylesheet        "http://pragprog.com/styles/Mac_Stripe/styles-site.css"
      set_ignore_directory_pattern   /Secret/
      set_ignore_filename_pattern    /Comp|Unreleased/
    end

Remember to read the MovableStyles FAQ for details on attributing any style you use.
