Thumbnails link to post

Thumbnails are now links to a post

Minor improvements after some usage of the blog

• Improved SSL configuration
• Make RSS feed only display the abstract. There does not seem to be a
  good way to display HTML in RSS so this way is probably better
• Remove the amount of scrolling necessary on the homepage by displaying
  the abstract only. Also increase the default number of items per page to
  10
• The direct link to a post on the homepage does not open in a new tab
  anymore

Images, thumbnails, some better UX

To recapitulate changes since 1.0:

• You can upload images
• You can have thumbnails for your posts
• 404s are handled in a cleaner way (you have an actual 404 page now...)
• The login page on the admin interface redirects you to the path you were trying to access

Google Analytics and 404s

Makes Google Analytics optional and configuratble and handles 404s more graciously.

Adding thumbnails

Now the images can be assigned to posts as thumbnails.

Images upload and small fixes

The main new feature is the ability to upload images! I also styled some things a bit differently and did a proper login redirect for the admin interface.

Minimum valuable version

This is the first version I think is good enough to be published as a blog! You can find the detailed description in the following post: LSBEngine. The main features are:

Markdown blogging

The main feature of the software is to allow you to create edit blog posts, projects descriptions and a personal details page with markdown. It is both easy to implement and easy to learn to quickly generate nice blog posts. On top of this, you can organise your posts by categories that you handle your self from the administration interface. You can easily select a publication date for your posts, allowing you to schedule publications in the future so that you don't even need to be in front of your computer to release your articles at any point in time.
Finally, if you are so inclined, you can write explicit content and mark it as such. This will prevent the content from being displayed directly on the front page (which could offend the sensitivity of some people!). Instead, the nice family-friendly abstract (that you provide) will be displayed alongside a link to the full article.

RSS feeds

Not a lot to say here but the blog comes with two RSS feeds:

my.domain.me/feed/posts which is a feed of all the posts
my.domain.me/feed/projects which is a feed of all the projects
You can then have your readers to subscribe to your work and use those feeds in their fabourite news reading application.

Resume

If you configure the software properly (you can find the instructions on the repository's readme), you can have it serve your resume in PDF format from my.domain.me/feed/assets/firstname_lastname_resume.pdf.
