It will also reset the page counter to zero. ![]() That will break all existing links to the page and delete all Facebook comments, which are tied to the old URL. Here it is.īut there are two problems with this approach: First, moving all the 2008 posts to a new blog named “2008″ (or whatever) means that each post will have a new URL. So I can replicate the page Andy linked to. But I discovered that I could put multiple titles & summary objects on one page, making it possible to essentially do a blog for each year, since there’s no chance I’ll ever blog over 200 times in a year. That meant that Andy’s idea wouldn’t work for me either right now or some time in the near future. 200 works and 300 doesn’t… I didn’t experiment with all the points in between. You can display entire posts, parts of posts, just post names, etc. Unfortunately, Sandvox (my Mac-based web platform) has a hard limit of just over 200 on the number of items that can be shown on a “titles & summaries” object, which is the element used most often for blogs. Because evergreen posts don’t have an expiration date, I regularly link to them years later. Some of my posts might only have a few hundred readers after a week, but to my surprise, they may have several thousand a few years later. Most of my posts are evergreen, because I’m more interested in lasting principles than things that are temporary. Evergreen posts are those based on principles, and which may be useful for years. Timely posts are those based on current events. There are two basic types of blog posts: timely posts, and evergreen posts. That would be enormously helpful to me, allowing me to hunt for my own posts for linking later. From their excellent input, I was able to piece together the following:Īndy linked to a blog which included a page where every post is listed by title. I then posted a similar question to Facebook on a couple occasions and got helpful responses from Kaid Benfield, Andy Malone, John Massengale, and Hazel Borys. I googled “blog archive best practices” and didn’t get anything useful other than suggestions for the look of the archive. ![]() And because I’m starting to blog a lot of Walk Appeal material as I’m working on the book in earnest, it’s a big deal now. I finally figured out an excellent system of archiving my blog posts in a seamless way! The Original Green blog has over 220 posts, making it tedious to work with all them in the same folder… tons of scrolling past what I don’t want to get to the one I want to link to, for example.
