Jetpack: Christmas Special! is a freeware edition of Jetpack, published in 1993 by Software Creations. In this game, the player takes on the role of Santa Claus and explores Christmas-themed levels, collecting gifts and presents while facing various challenges. It features a level editor and supports up to eight players using a keyboard and/or joysticks.
Oh speaking of #wordpress and #selfhost woes, any good payment processing stuff for that?
Was looking at #jetpack but didn't see the 10% fee (on TOP of Stripe, who actually does the work!!). I already got #Stripe, so anything that integrates with that is good.
I also have Paypal and Patreon, but the point is more to have as direct and 'on premise' a form as possible not just send traffic over. Plus fuck paypal
Over the last month, I had troubles with my web site. It was off line too often. I contacted the provider and they couldn’t see any evidence. It kept happening. I mentioned it often happened at night. The explanation was that bots (such as #Jetpack) are checking the server if it is on line and it might be crowded. It kept happening, but now for 8 hours and in the morning. That is inconvenient as I time my new post releases through social media. So what is the issue? 1/3 (cliffhanger) 🎬

🆕 blog! “Rewriting WordPress's JetPack Related Posts Shortcode”
I like the JetPack related post functionality. But I wanted to customise it far beyond what the default code allows for. So here's how I went from this: To this: Documentation The complete documentation for related posts is pretty easy to follow. This is an adaptation of "Use Jetpack_Rel…
And this goes in your theme's functions.php file. I've commented it as best I can. Let me know if you need more info.
function jetpackme_custom_related() { // Check that JetPack Related Posts exists if ( class_exists( 'Jetpack_RelatedPosts' ) && method_exists( 'Jetpack_RelatedPosts', 'init_raw' ) ) { // Get the related posts $related = Jetpack_RelatedPosts::init_raw() ->set_query_name( 'edent-related-shortcode' ) ->get_for_post_id( get_the_ID(), // ID of the post array( 'size' => 4 )// How many related items to fetch ); if ( $related ) { // Set the container for the related posts $output = "<h2 id='related-posts'>The Algorithm™ suggests:</h2>"; $output .= "<ul class='related-posts'>"; foreach ( $related as $result ) { $related_post_id = $result['id']; // Get the related post $related_post = get_post( $related_post_id ); // Get the attributes $related_post_title = $related_post->post_title; $related_post_date = substr( $related_post->post_date, 0, 4 ); // YYYY-MM-DD $related_post_link = get_permalink( $related_post_id ); // Get the thumbnail if ( has_post_thumbnail( $related_post_id) ) { $related_post_thumb = get_the_post_thumbnail( $related_post_id, 'full', array( "class" => "related-post-img", "loading" => "lazy" // Lazy loading and other attributes ) ); } else { $related_post_thumb = null; } // Create the HTML for the related post $output .= '<li class="related-post">'; $output .= "<a href='{$related_post_link}'>"; $output .= "{$related_post_thumb}<p>{$related_post_title}</p></a>"; $output .= "<time>{$related_post_date}</time>"; $output .= "</li>"; } // Finish the related posts container $output .="</ul>"; } // Display the related posts echo $output; }}add_shortcode( 'jprel', 'jetpackme_custom_related' ); // Shortcode name can be whatever you want
Ha! #WordPress#Jetpack just added back a blogroll component! (a block this time, of course, because block block block everything is a block don't you want to use blocks?)
🆕 blog! “Getting WordPress / JetPack Subscriber Counts via the API... the hard way”
People can subscribe to receive my blog via email. This is managed by the JetPack plugin. I want to be able to display something like "Join 1,234 subscribers and receive updates via email". So, how do I get the subscriber count from the API? As documented in the JetPack H…
Whew! Now that the hard part of moving my #blog over to #Wordpress is done, I have a #question for all the Wordpress admins out there: I'm looking for a #accessible#theme for my blog that will comply with #A11Y standards, looks good both on #desktop and #mobile screens and most importantly is #free Anyone got any #recommendations It would also help if the theme is compatible with #JetPack as I use that plugin to make it possible for #IAWriter to connect and let me publish straight to Wordpress.
I already have so many hobbies, yet I also want to look into #Kotlin Multiplatform for #Wasm & #Jetpack Compose, now that the Garbage collector and #JavaScript heap issues have been addressed. Would be great to have a serverside-first approach as an alternative to the #frontend frameworks that just can't manage to pull me in.
Going through Samsung Notes to ensure I transfer the correct weird bits and blurbs of ideas I've frantically typed throughout the last months/years for potential development into WordPress posts via the excellent Jetpack app for Android.
(I know I could write these blurbs directly in Jetpack, but the thing is, not all my notes would necessarily be turned into blog posts, as some are just random notes to myself).
Anyway, the reason for my semi-obsessive note taking is a creativity-related concept I've been grappling with for 30 years now.
Throughout the years, I've found that no matter HOW great and memorable your idea is, you will NOT remember it later. There are exactly two paths. You need to 1) write it down AS SOON AS YOU THINK OF IT, so you can remember it and enjoy it or scrap it later, or, 2) get used to a 'zen' kind of acceptance thing for ideas, to just let them go when you can't remember them later.
The price of remembering an idea is writing it down immediately, wherever you are. Somewhere you can find it.
Or maybe your thing is voice notes, if you remember to check them. I don't like voice stuff. I'm old. I write! 🤣
