I've really liked the blogging system of SMF, I've asked it in the "how this blog was created" topic, but I couldn't get an answer.
Does someone know how the Simple Machines Blog is created? I think it's possible with SSI, but I couldn't create the comment system.
I've got some PHP knowledge.
Is something like the Simple Machines Blog possible to create? It would be very useful..
Excuse me for my bad English.
MPT.
Take a look at the code and look at some more of the code. ;) I can't tell you exactly how it was done as I don't know. (I like it too.) But it is more permission based and theme based as near as I can see. Starting with that - run... I don't think there is a direct answer at this time in other words, give it a few and you can/will figure it out I think. If I had to make a GUESS it would be that those sections can force a theme, and, from there it is all permissions based. Hopefully that hint is enough.
It's all simple. But the comment system is difficult. I don't have enough knowledge to code that..
Anyone?
you could force the wikistyle theme on the forums for bloging, then from there set the permissions, that way any reply it a comment. ;)
The blogs are actually a board in here (check the bottom of the board index).
The blogs system uses a "friendly URL" mod, I believe. The comments are pulled using SMF functions, and are just replies to the topics in the board.
I use Tinyportal without sidebars for my blog (http://eldacar.com).
It's all simple with SSI, but the comment system is the difficult part. I want to know how the comment system's made.
i use MKPortal for extra stuff like this
I'll see if I can work on a similar (very simple) blogging system later :D. The comments shouldn't be
too hard, but I'll take a look when I have more spare time :)

You are the prof, it's not difficult for you :P

I've released a "SSI Topic and Replies" mod at http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=751... If you know PHP, you can use this mod to grab all the comments. Use ssi_boardNews for the main blog page, ssi_topic (that mod) for the "Read More" and comments page, and you have a simple blog system :D
For the people that don't know PHP, I'll try to (eventually) work on a simple blog system (similar to the one here). With that mod done, a fairly large portion of the blog is already done :)
^You're great! Thank you!!

No problem ;)
I actually started coding my one a few days ago. Please see http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=169915.0... I'll probably have a public beta soon :D
