Time for a little more meat and potatoes with this milk. What really inspired me to start this blog was a post I came across. I must admit the idea of keeping my blog in a single file sounded extremely sexy, so armed with this article I googled my way to this point. All without ever having used org-mode at all or realizing org-mode is like some sort of strange markdown it seems like. And now I am hooked.
So the wtf:
Apparently I had messed up some property or a tag in combination with something funky in jekyll. Which somehow was getting blog posts for today rendered tomorrow. No idea, I opened a talk thing over with the jekyll folks, ran through a bunch of rm -rf, changed stuff, ended up removing all the properties added by the endless/export-to-blog to my sub headings and running the command again, and some how through all of that ::prezto:: it was working.
I think it really started when I noticed that my eagerness to write stuff and post had resulted in multiple posts for today and they were out of order so I hit up the google magic and located an old github issue and it seemed to be fixed. So that was nice however I realized the problem was with the script I had found on previously mentioned blog SO… I did a quick hack and somewhere after that it broke, then it fixed itself. I think it had to do with updating posts that had already been marked by the script with a file name or something I dunno. Long story short… "Too late!" I undid my hack and polished it up a bit and submitted a pull request for great justice.
In case my shit code is shit and not merge worthy here is my version and the original by author of previously mentioned blog. I would check the original first to see if merged or perhaps he wrote it in a better way. Though I assume very few people are posting multiple times a day from org-mode using his handy helper, but I'm continuously wrong, so we shall see.
UPDATE: So I think I tracked down what was going on. Originally the script mentioned above was attempting to glean a date off of the scheduled time, and since I'm not sure how to make the script insert a scheduled date and time, I noticed there was a closed field added that had an actual time stamp.
Armed with this, I modified it to check for the presence of that before the scheduled field and use that for the subsequent code. Though I'm certain there must be a way to just insert a real time-stamp into the scheduled field instead of just a date. Will research tomorrow.
