I’ve asked, but no reply so far on adding the post via e-mail plug-in to the notebooks.dataone.org wordpress installation.<\/p>\n

I may need to add some details about how it might be done, to make the case.<\/p>\n

That means two options are available to me at the moment:<\/p>\n

1) explore “re-blogging” from my personal wordpress (which I don’t really think makes sense)<\/p>\n

2) copy and paste formatted content from one blog to the other.<\/p>\n

“Re-blogging” would be the easiest option, but I’m not sure how to do that. \u00a0From my work on the SEPARC wordpress blog, I know it is possible to “reblog” as certain wordpress.com entries are “reblogged” by related orgs.<\/p>\n

For example:<\/p>\n

http:\/\/snaketalk.wordpress.com\/2012\/04\/18\/59\/<\/a><\/p>\n

Is a “reblogged” version of the original:<\/p>\n

Which is available here:<\/p>\n

http:\/\/separc.wordpress.com\/2012\/04\/18\/citizen-sssss-cience-assist-in-spotting-snakes-may-12-20-2012\/<\/a><\/p>\n

So clearly it is possible.<\/p>\n

Not my favorite option.<\/p>\n

Here’s what google suggested for me:<\/p>\n

How to reblog on wordpress.com:<\/p>\n

http:\/\/en.blog.wordpress.com\/2010\/06\/01\/we-all-like-to-reblog\/<\/a><\/p>\n

The problem is, notebooks.dataone.org is not wordpress.com (as discussed at length here:\u00a0http:\/\/en.support.wordpress.com\/com-vs-org\/<\/a>)<\/p>\n

So: I’ve changed the search to:<\/p>\n

how to reblog on wordpress site:wordpress.org<\/p>\n

Best bet looks like:<\/p>\n

http:\/\/wordpress.org\/tags\/reblog<\/a><\/p>\n

This answer from w months ago suggests:<\/p>\n

there is no REBLOG function on self-hosted WordPress.ORG sites. That only applies to WordPress.COM sites.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

So, I do not think that “reblog” will be an option for me – I suspect it would require a customized plug-in.<\/p>\n

One other option I noticed “PressThis” bookmarklet.<\/p>\n

Let’s see if that might be an option.<\/p>\n

From here:\u00a0https:\/\/notebooks.dataone.org\/wp-admin\/tools.php<\/p>\n

I can see the “press this” bookmarklet.<\/p>\n

Installing that.<\/p>\n

Now loading a personal blog entry I want to “press.”<\/p>\n

Test 4: Network Visualization with NESCENT GeoPhyloBuilder<\/a><\/p>\n

I highlighted the text that I want to press (essentially the text of the blog entry) and the wordpress bookmarklet pulled in the content, used the title, and added something of a citation “Test 4: Network Visualization with NESCENT GeoPhyloBuilder | TannerJessel.info<\/a>.”<\/p>\n

This is not the ideal solution, but I think it could work.<\/p>\n

And, I think it leaves less room for “transcription error” than the other approaches I’ve described (e.g., manually downloading e-mail).<\/p>\n

However I do regret that it involves an extra step. For now, perhaps I can just use this as a “case study” for how entries might be posted. \u00a0I can go through and assign tags later – I don’t see it as critical that they match whatever tags I generate on the source material (my personal e-portfolio site, tannerjessel.info).<\/p>\n

What is critical is that the content from the e-mail to the personal blog to the research notebook is not changed.<\/p>\n

Also, I am curious to see how the images might be reblogged.<\/p>\n

In a moment, I will publish the “reblogged” content and link to it here.<\/p>\n

Test 4: Network Visualization with NESCENT GeoPhyloBuilder | TannerJessel.info<\/a><\/p>\n

One gripe: hyperlinks are not preserved.<\/p>\n

The original blog entry from my e-portfolio site:<\/p>\n

Test 4: Network Visualization with NESCENT GeoPhyloBuilder<\/a><\/p>\n

However, I do not know that hyperlinks were ever generated via e-mail in the original post.<\/p>\n

Note: I would like to test this out e.g., have an e-mail that contains hyperlinks; send them to the personal blog; determine if the hyperlinks are preserved.<\/p>\n

These types of minutae can be frustrating but I think it’s worth being able to easily re-trace my steps as research progresses, and also so that others can re-trace steps and perhaps see things I might have missed.<\/p>\n
