pseudo-guide: getting started on dreamwidth

[sinew]

nowhere near done, but some stuff i wanna go over re: neocities to help folks who never used a platform like this get a little more used to it

to do:

• a lil' bit about older journaling site and dreamwidth culture (friends-locking, icon crediting, mood themes, intro posts, roleplay accounts, etc)


• useful things like how to make cuts and link users/communities


• stylesheets + layers


• list of resources for all of the above

simplified dreamwidth blog on any other site

[sinew]

sadness has a guide to display a simplified version of your dreamwidth journal on neocities (or any other host) available here

some tl;dr:
- blog management itself is done via dreamwidth
- this method uses rss, therefore individual post formatting does not display
- you can only display a max of 14 posts
- posts will only update once an hour
- you can style the simplified feed differently from your journal available on the subdomain
- you can still include the permalinks back to your actual journal
