Rails for everyone!

Listing all entries tagged 'feeds'. Feed

New Blog Features

I added some minor improvements to my blog. Some of these feature include:

  • All tags now offer feeds, even if they aren’t in the “Popular Tags”. Just click on the tag, and the grey banner contains a feed link.
  • All successful searches (i.e., those that return results) allow for subscriptions via Atom feeds. Similar to tag feeds, they exist in the grey banner that details the search term.
  • All uploaded media is available and searchable from the newly added “Media” link under the also newly added “Extras” section on the right.
  • Several small improvements to admin areas…

Here’s some code:

        @entries = Tag.find_by_name(params[:tag]).entries.find(

          :limit => 25, 
          :order => 'updated_at DESC'

    end # case params[:feed]
    respond_to do |format|
      format.atom  { render :layout => nil }
