Videos 0.18.0 is now available for Geeklog.

This release goes far beyond adding YouTube videos to a website. It turns video into a real content layer that can help a Geeklog site become more active, more engaging and easier to explore.

For a site built around a specific topic, this opens an interesting opportunity: use relevant videos to reconnect visitors with your existing content, highlight useful creators, surface remarkable resources and encourage people to stay longer on the site.

The new version is available from the Geeklog Plugins repository:

IndexNow 1.2.0: Opening Indexing Notifications to Geeklog Plugins

The IndexNow plugin for Geeklog is evolving with version 1.2.0. This release goes beyond submitting articles and static pages: it introduces a generic interoperability mechanism that allows other Geeklog plugins to notify search engines when their own public content is created, updated, or deleted.

The goal is simple: if a Geeklog plugin knows that one of its public items has changed, it should be able to announce that change without the IndexNow plugin needing to understand its database structure, internal tables, or routing logic.

This creates a cleaner and more extensible way for Geeklog plugins to cooperate.

IndexNow 1.2.0 is available from the Geeklog Plugins repository:
