Add favicon.

[debugger22]

This PR adds favicon to the website.

[certik]

This looks good to me. Thanks!

[debugger22]

Can I also work on improving the look of this website?

[debugger22]

Making it similar to other SymPy websites.

[certik]

Absolutely!

[debugger22]

I'll send a PR soon!

[asmeurer]

Feel free to dump planet if you can find a better alternative too. Some static site generators like Nikola or Pelican (?) can aggregate RSS feeds.

[debugger22]

Sure! I'll will try that.

[certik]

Also, I plan to stop paying for linode (where this runs), as it costs $20/month. And rather setup something at https://www.digitalocean.com/ (this is $5/month), which Aaron mentioned to me. If you want to go ahead and set this up, that would be a huge help.

[asmeurer]

Building a site like this can also be done with Travis, which is free.

[asmeurer]

Ah, but I guess this has to be rebuilt more often than every commit to it. So maybe Travis isn't the right solution, at least not without some modification to how it works. It might be possible, though.

Also, what about Jekyll, which GitHub supports directly?

[debugger22]

I've a good experience with DigitalOcean. They sponsored hosting for my project BinPy.

We can also use openshift which is free.

[debugger22]

But OpenShift doesn't give you root access. :worried:

[debugger22]

I've found something https://github.com/pote/planet.rb

Looks good to me after looking at README.

[asmeurer]

I'm biased toward Nikola as that's what I use for my personal blog. It's written in Python and has a BSD-style license.

[certik]

But planet needs to download & parse the feeds --- that's quite a lot of Python code to write.

Referring specifically to this http://getnikola.com/handbook.html#planetoid. I haven't tested this specific plugin, though, so I can't speak to how good it is.

[debugger22]

I tried both things nikola planetoid and planet.rb but couldn't successfully deploy it.

The issue with nikola is that it doesn't know from which file it has to read feeds. I read the docs and it is mentioned nowhere.

And planet.rb(with octopress) has some issue while converting some blogposts into html. Deleting them works but that won't be a good solution and it won't be future proof.

So I would propose to continue using planet(with some tweaks to the UI) and we should move to cheaper service such as DigitalOcean. If you allow me I can take care of that.

[certik]

That would be awesome. Thanks for working on this. Let me know if you need me to purchase the plan at digital ocean.

[certik]

No problem. Thanks for doing this!

Nikola has a pretty good community. You can ask on the mailing list, or just figure it out from the source code.

[debugger22]

Ok, I asked it on the mailing list.
