Dates and Times

Your Manage Site page has options to select a timezone for your blog, and to choose formatting options for dates, times, and "datetimes". (A "datetime" is used where both the date and the time should be displayed together.)

The timezone should be self-explanatory; options for formatting dates and times are described in detail below.

Conditions, Calculations and Variables

Conditional Tags

[if], [ifn], [iff], and [iffn].

[if] tests a single variable. If that variable exists and has a true (non-zero / non-null / non-empty) value, the template code within the bracket of the [if] and the [/if] is evaluated.

If the variable is false (zero / null / empty), the code is not evaluated.

And if the variable does not exist, the [if] tag itself is not evaluated, and is instead included directly in the output. So if you get the name of the variable wrong, and type [if post.coments] instead of [if post.comments], you will be able to see your mistake right there in the page. In this case, the bracketed code is processed as if the [if] tag did not exist.

[ifn] works exactly the same, except that the condition is reversed. Code inside the [ifn] [/ifn] is evaluated if the variable is false.

With [if] and [ifn], if the variable does not exist the behaviour of a following [else] statement is undefined.

[iff] and [iffn] are similar, with one big exception: The bracketed code is evaluated if and only if the variable evaluates to true (or false, for [iffn]). If the variable does not exist, the code is skipped, just as if the variable had been false.

Comment Problem

Hi everyone.

We seem to have a problem with comments not saving at times.  I've managed to reproduce the bug, but haven't tracked it down yet.

I'll keep you posted.

Update: The comment problem is fixed!  Hooray!
