Roller
I've run into a few issues with the blogging software I'm using for this site. Here they are:
- site model is not availiable by default
- comments cannot be switched on
- Tag cloud displays tags from draft posts
- bookmarks are deleted when moved
- themes cannot be completely created from roller
Honestly, I'm glad that roller has become an official apache project, but it has a few problems. I'm a big believer that once a program is installed I should not need go into the installation directory and edit text files just to set something up. I have a feeling that the first two problems are probably configuration issues, but I've been through the entire site and the two manuals and I have not found a thing that helps. Roller just seems like it is made for big blogger communities where administrators have time to figure these things out. For a one person blog though it is not too good. It would be interesting to work on these problems and fix them in the spirit of open source software, but I'm not sure I have the time to do that. The second and third issues would be easy but the last would be much harder. I will continue to look into these problems and see if I can submit a bug report.
