Help/WikiBlogPlugin

This simple plugin allows blog-style entries on a page. Try making a few entries, and then look at RecentChanges to get an idea of how things work.

This plugin shows 'blogs' (comments/news) associated with a particular page and provides an input form for adding a new blog.

Usage

Add <<WikiBlog>> at your PersonalPage and BlogArchives and BlogJournal will find the Blog entries automatically.

Now it is also the base class for all attachable pagetypes: "wikiblog", "comment" and "wikiforum"

Hints/comments

To have the blog show up on a separate page:

On TopPage, use <<WikiBlog mode=add>> Create TopPage/Blog with this page as actionpage: <<WikiBlog pagename=TopPage mode=show>>

To have the main ADMIN_USER Blog appear under Blog and not under WikiBlog/Blog or UserName/Blog as for other users blogs, define BLOG_DEFAULT_EMPTY_PREFIX=true use the page Blog as basepage and user="" (as default for ADMIN or current user) and pagename="Blog" in the various blog plugins (BlogArchives, BlogJournal)

Example

You must be logged in to add blog entries.
