== Hobix Tip from Leon: Author About Pages ==
Leon's got his Hobix blog up and a post explaining his personal hacks:
<http://blog.xeraph.org/general/2005/07/24/sorry-about-the-duplicates>
Let's hang on to that code for adding author about pages to your blog.
== Hacking the Template ==
This goes in your entry.html.quick template:
| entry_footer: |
<% if !(entry.respond_to?(:comments) && (entry.comments.nil? || entry.comments
== false)) %>
<% entry_id = entry.id %>
posted by <a href="/about/<%= entry.author %>.html">
<%= weblog.authors[entry.author]['name'] %></a>
at <%= entry.created.strftime("%H:%M %p") %>
<% comments = weblog.storage.load_attached( entry_id, "comments" ) rescue []
%>
| <%= comments.length %> comments
<% end %>|
Now at least you've got a link to the author's page. The about pages
can be adding by posting them, just as you would post a blog entry.

And, if you want the `about' posts ignored in the flow of front page
blog posts, use an `ignore' section in the hobix.yaml:
sections:
about: {ignore: true}
