I've started a "WebDev Demos" section on my site, which you may find useful. It's a section for HTML/CSS/JS demos, ideas and widgets - hopefully useful stuff you can use on your own site! Just the two recent ones at the moment, but I already have the next one in the works and plan to add to it over time. There's also a blank editor where you can test out your own ideas. https://scott.itsasite.uk/webdev-demos.html

On YouTube embeds, the overlay can get in the way of "important" visual elements. This JS uses your own thumb, and as a bonus is responsive+more privacy-friendly - doesn't create the iframe unless visitor clicks! Figure'd some of y'all might appreciate! https://scott.itsasite.uk/website-building-tutorials/tryout/?docid=better-youtube-embeds

Notice: I will be deleting Plant from https://scott2.neocities.org/plant/ soon in favour of its new location https://scott.itsasite.uk/plant/ in the next few weeks. Be sure to visit the link in the old one to transfer your progress! A new version with a better, mobile-friendly UI is also planned eventually, but it's low priority. *notice complete*

Demo of responsive columns without a column container. AKA a header, 2 columns, footer with 4 divs. Thought some of y'all might find this useful/interesting: https://scott.itsasite.uk/website-building-tutorials/tryout/?docid=flex-divs

This is a test of my in-development iframe comment system. Not a bad start! Couple more days work and I should be rolling out comments on my site. Since it uses iframes, I'll be adding them to my old site here on NC as well :D! I am also looking into releasing this as something others could use. However you'll need a PHP host (and I'll be recommending free and paid options).

If anyone's interested (probably not to be fair xD), I'm keeping a progress log of moving and changing my static HTML site/blog to a custom PHP powered one at: https://scott.itsasite.uk/blog/2025-05-20-to-scott-itsasite-uk.html.

Hey Scott! For some reason, I couldn't reply to your comment on the Wordpress help page for Static Ultra. I can confirm nesting works for navigation functionality; I actually tried that before reaching out. The breadcrumb is what's not working. I tried editing the JS file (both nested, and unnested) and couldn't get it to work. It doesn't populate any breadcrumbs past the first/2nd level.

I also don't know much JS at all, so I can only assume from my previous knowledge.

Alrighty, I've done some tests and it should be working! I've tested locally and live, and updated the test-folder section with 3 levels of nesting, and added some sample code. Let us know if you have further issues! https://scott2.neocities.org/static-ultra/test-folder/
Wohooo! The first version of my new comments system is live!
I am looking at developing this into something others can use. Check the post for (some) details!
