RE: Steemit Needs: Please comment with your ideas to improve Steemit!! E. 2
So Steemit is hosting it?
That's interesting. In the RSS feeds from Streemian, the Steemit portion of the url is removed, so I thought it was hotlinking. It results in the RSS feed hotlinking.
Thanks for the tip. Maybe this can help me fix the layout issue I'm having.
Not sure if it is 'ok' but Steemit's links might be hotlinkable.
Thanks. Yeah, that might not matter, and I haven't tried. The RSS feed doesn't include them though. I asked @xeroc if he had any ideas. We'll see.
Thanks again!
What are you trying to make work / do?
Using Stremian's RSS feed to move articles to a WP site. I have Markdown JP on it to help convert the Markdown, but the images just aren't working well. Part of it is because of the hotlinking issue. But there's something else too (some images work, others don't, and I can't find consistency to the problem).
Anyway, if I could get the hotlink issue taken care of, it'd be a great step in the right direction. You just showed me part of the problem.... it's a great step. :)
Wlcm. Steemit is hosting the images if you are viewing it through Steemit.com. If you view through a non-Steemit website, it will pull the raw text from the blockchain. In those cases, technically those sites are hotlinking. That is not Steemit's job to prevent though :)
Yeah, I get it. Now trying to figure out how to make it work. Hrmmm.... Any ideas?
