Link Me support is ready for you all under "Verification & Proofs" in your blog settings page. And it's super simple.

Introducing link=me support on the Scribbles Update Blog

... also, slight spelling mistake there 😅

I wanted to follow up on creating pages in Scribbles with giving a slightly better overview of what your end result will be when you're in the editor.

Editor tweaks and kudos emoji on the Scribbles Update Blog

This one was fun!

I've seen some creative ways of getting around adding pages, by creating posts and linking to them, so I wanted to tackle that and add some support for pages that keeps things a little cleaner.

Initial support for Pages on the Scribbles Update Blog

As I'm developing Scribbles I wanted an easy way to ignore hits of logged in users, without having to do any trickery with adding an ignore via localStorage. The need for this came because a blog could have Tinylytics enabled, and if it was your blog, it would always register a hit — and like any good blogger you probably check your blog a lot. However, to avoid a full on block on hits across all sites on Scribbles (because you are nice and caring), the localStorage options is not really an option.

A new custom way to ignore hits on Tinylytics

"Well, it's been a week! Well, OK, about 10 days. Productive for sure and I have no idea where to start here except to say that there's been so many changes in the past week on Scribbles it's difficult to put them here."

A raft of changes: blog settings, explore and much more on the Scribbles blog

Pretty sexy search page for Scribbles. Happy with the way it worked out.

Now you can request the script in SPA friendly format which will give you some extra goodies! To get started, all you have to do is add the `spa` parameter to the script tag.

Support for SPA (Single Page Apps) apps — Tinylytics Update Blog

I deployed a lot of new tweaks and changes to Scribbles in the past week, especially in the past 24 hours. Remind me to write it all up in a blog post!

"Add to Dock..." — looks nice.

OK, step one of getting the Tinylytics Update Blog ready for that article I'm supposed to write 😋
