Blogging with Pelican

Nigel Green at

Have installed Pelican for blogging purposes on my Digital Ocean server. Seems pretty cool, and brings another thing under my control!

Need to read through all the release notes as not quite worked out how to deal with styling fully as yet.

You might want to look at this comment system using Pump.io, for Pelican =)


(The author is wrong about Pump being 'microblogging' though :p)


The sad part is that the 'plugin' doesn't actually use the title field in Pump, I think. Room for improvement ;)


EDIT: I saw this in the source code:

““# TODO post notices to public””


Posting non-public is a bad idea... but apparently it does post to public, it's just an outdated comment.
