[XI] Blog [Paid] [Deleted]

I have replied there.

One thing that I would also like to see is a secondary but very popular use for blogs: Newsblog.
I would like to use the blog to provide a news page, with blog roll, similar to www.techcrunch.com
Basically this means having a category with a newblog layout, that only selected usergroups can submit to. News blogs need to be approved before publication.

Is this something you would like to offer?

That would be great

I edited my post above while you where posting. Please read the updated version.

Whoops! Onimua got you tho.

Without the need to repeat myself, and for the benefit of others reading, I'll link to my reply here: http://xenfluence.com/threads/category-management.115/#post-793
It doesn't beyond basic parent/child relationship at the moment.
Psst. You really need to play with the blog more closely. :p

Yes, I do. I was also on my phone or I would have played before answering. hahaha.

There's something along the lines of this but it's too early to give concrete details.

The concept comes quite close to an article system.

Easter is in 2 weeks. Onimua is good, but he won't rush the blog to completion. There is going to be at least one more beta before an RC stage.

And where is screen to acp etc ...?

And where is screen to acp etc ...?

There is a notice that tells you how to access the ACP:

To use this demo, you can create an account or use one of the following login pairs: Admin/Admin, Mod/Mod, User/User.

 

[Onimua]

And where is screen to acp etc ...?

Log into the demo, though there isn't much to look at (only that the demo doesn't have access to is the general blog options). I haven't taken new screenshots for the blog yet.

I checked out the demo - it is deceptively simple, which I guess is a good thing!

Nothing much to it (except behind the scenes). It just creates entries which are like posts, and others can add comments.

I'm not sure I need it for anything yet, but who knows?

 

[craigiri]

Uh, you guys better look at and remove the recent entry....not me!

Were you upgrading from LNBlog or XIBlog 1.0? If so, did you run the import step? If you check the database, you should still see lnblog_* tables in the database, which should be untouched.

How do I fix? Import step?

How do I fix? Import step?

When you're in the ACP, point the browser to: admin.php?blog-import and follow the on-screen steps.

 

[onthefly]

Awesome, found it and fixed, cheers. Thanks Onimua.

Any plans to add xfrocks widgets for latest, most popular etc. blog entries? xfrocks says it should very easy to add widgets in the framework.

Third-party support is the last thing to come into the picture when the code is stable. I wouldn't expect them before the RC stages.

Hi. I haven't received the latest update. Do you distribute it via email?
