now using open graph as a first-attempt layer for getting article image and description. This prevents me from using Readability to get item content so I am left at the moment with no parsed article content. Looking for alternatives
getting through the seeds - rescuing errors. Not sure how well pismo is doing to parse articles, will have to check
pismo does a great job at parsing article content. Fixed styles a bit to prevent image & text overflow
trying to prevent non-linking buttons from changing color when clicked, not succeeding
using open graph to parse image and description from feed link. Using Simple RSS as a backup. Problem is that Simple RSS images and Open Graph images are parsed differently.
finally using two methods in feed-preview Backbone view to get image URe URL
refactor url-passing-method code to feed backbone model, sidebar images are updated
browsing items on feed show page not uses same browse-items view as Dashboard item-aggregator
updated sidebar, now toggling top alert that says 'no subscriptions' or 'these are your descriptions' in a toggling fashion
made skeleton 'discover' view with ipsum. Added button in top action links
am now fetching new items, although now displaying them on page
now can fetch items from feed show page
now can fetch all feeds new items from dashboard
fix some backbone urls to avoid getting accidentally caught in a wildcard rails matcher in rails routing
doing various refactoring tasks after a code review from will. Also fixed problem where items were not getting marked as read when toggled open:
thought i fixed problem of inconsident auto-marking as read of toggled-open items, but now i believe i actually have
refactored items#unread_items to use find_by_sql. I think it sped up a bit in the dashboard aggregate section but could still be faster
trying to fix mark as read button
