Hopefully the changes to the home page are done.
It was only originally supposed to be one change but after thinking about Amit's post and 'Thought for the day' I added another.
The first change is that if a post is more than 500 characters it will only be partly shown on the home page, the rest will be behind a drop down. I felt that the home page was getting too long when there was a long post.
The second change is that I've reintroduced the 'Thought for the day' feature. Now, if I choose to write a 'thought' it will show on the homepage until midnight. It's just another fun little experiment with ephemerality.
Update 1 Er, okay, so the long post thing didn't work. Hard to test without a long post. 😊 I'll have another look.
Update 2 Fixed. Stupid mistake – I had a check in the wrong place so some javascript was looking for an element that didn't exist yet.
