Its great that you are working on a major update.
Its not very useful that I cant reply to closed bug reports: http://xfaddons.com/threads/duplicate-entry-1087-for-key-primary.211/

Did you ever get anywhere with the restyling that was discussed?

Still just wondering this. I think you should let @Sheldon loose on it ;-)

From the feedback here - http://xenforo.com/community/threads/better-blogs-vs-xi-blogs.59986/#post-638480

I have pending to apply the Profile Page changes so the latest entries look like the rest of the tab elements. A lot of the rest (sidebar, category strip, xenforo styles, etc) was applied progressively in previous update.

Take a look at the most recent
Home Page - http://xfaddons.com/blog-home/

Can we loose the round Date blob and have a nicer way to display blog date? It doesn't fit in XenForo styling and the date text is not centered correctly. Its weird to have the time separated from the date.
Tags do not use XenForo colors yet.

Yeah this was the main thing I meant. It just looks ugly and doesn't fit with the other styling.

You can add this to your extra.css to hide it

.xfa_blog_home .datetime
{
display: none;
}

Apologies for not having the time to read through the previous 61 pages to see if this has been asked already, if it has been, please disregard.

Is there an image slider that can be incorporated into this? With some operational functionality that makes it versatile?

What is an image slider? What purpose would it serve?

The purpose is to bring latest or featured blog entries under the attention of the reader in an appealing way. The blog entry requirements are that a main image needs to be defined and that it needs to have a minimum size/quality.

Optional integration with the XenPorta slider would make this a killer option. That way, if there's a well-written blog post, a mod can add the blogpost to show up on the frontpage slider.

Minus a reported error with the attachments that I had, the vBulletin 3.8 importer should work, could you try that on a test installation to see if it works for you?

So you are saying you can use vbulletin 3.8 importer for vbulletin 4.x. I will try and write.

I did. I copied items in "library\XfAddOns\Blogs\Importer" to "library\XenForo\Importer". vBulletin 3.8 importer works for vBulletin 4.x

You don't need to do that, it should find the files in the XfAddOns\Blogs\Importer location

Not sure if this has been reported yet but when I created a published entry to be published a day later.. it was published immediately. All it did was display the future date as the date that it was posted.

All this will be done with @Daniel Hood addon called Promoted Content. Also here's the Suggestion I made long before I asked Daniel Hood to make promoted content for Better Blogs. Like the first post and reply please.
