Posts by Author - A tool I absolutely love

Maybe you've noticed that in most of my posts I add links to my previous writings. This is not because I indulge in giving myself more work, but because a little while ago my friend @odrau gave me a tool of his making that made the task a three second job.



Last time I spoke to him he had moved on to other endeavors and I wish him the absolute best of course, but I think him not sharing this tool with the world is a bit of a crime. Hence the reason for this short post today. In case you are wondering, I will be transferring the SBD's generated from this post to him, because he absolutely deserves the credit for the coding of this little tool.

I've taken the liberty of modifying the code a tiny bit and setting up a working webpage to demo how it works for anyone who wants to use it. It's currently hosted in of my websites in a subfolder, but that is sure to change in the near future.

It's very easy to use, and it should require a few clicks for anyone to get results. That being said if you are lost, or need some guidance, do not hesitate to leave me a comment and I will try to help you out.

Simply said, after you chose all the options and hit submit, the app will output the html code you would need to add to the bottom of your posts. Copy/Paste and you are home free. Does it get any easier than that? I sincerely doubt it.

This might be a feature a competitor of Steemit might consider adding to their html editor. In the context of blog creation it makes perfect sense to use it, and it will allow some organization to the chaotic page with resteems burying the original content of an author. I'm sure I'm not the only one that shares the frustration.

On the off chance that @odrau shows up to this post, I will say. I'm sorry bud, but sharing your work is the right thing to do, and this is my way of showing you I care.
