Depends on what needs to be done/built

3) FEATURE REQUEST: Instead of having ALL topics in a "marked blog board" post to the blog site, it'd be amazing if you could tick a box when starting a new thread "make this a blog post" so you can choose which new threads actually become blogs. Then, you could give people titles like "Content Contributor" and they'd have the access to tick the box or not, in addition to moderators/admins/etc. Is anyone willing to step up and make that happen?

Does anyone have a demo of this in action?

[vbgamer45]

I don't recommend this mod need to redo it at some point.

I installed this mod to SMF 1.1.16. Everything went well... I even manually review all the file to make sure they're all correct but I get this error went clicking into a blog.

Fatal error: Call to undefined function ssi_topic() in home\public_html\xxx\xxxx\Sources\Blog.php on line 250

I look up line 250 in Blog.php
$context['blog_post'] = ssi_topic($_GET['id'], $modSettings['blog_comments_perpage'], null, 'array');

Can someone please help?

[vbgamer45]

Requires another mod for SMF 1.1.x check mod page for details.

Is there any update for smf 2.0 ?

Is there any update for smf 2.0 ?

The SMFBlog Mod page shows that it is compatible with SMF versions 2.0, 2.0.1, 2.0.2 so it may well work OK with 2.0 RC3.

I've installed it with SMF 2.0.2. I've followed the usage instructions but Blog entries did not show up when clicking a Blog Board title from the Blogs Index page (from the Blog link in the main menu bar). I still haven't figured out why yet.

UPDATE: My problem was way too simple. I found the solution posted here in this thread in Reply #92, page 5, July 13, 2007. The solution should be added to the Mod Page for this mod in the Useage instructions.

While creating a new Forum Board to be used as Blogs Board, and you have checked all of the Member Groups the Board will be visible to, you'll find that Blog Threads are not visible from the Blog-name page (from Blogs Index page). Go back into "Modify" for that Board and be sure to also check the "Guests" Member Group. "Guests" MUST be checked for Blog threads to display properly from the Blog Board links.

While SMFBlog is definitely a simple mod, it is also quite flexible once you learn how to make use of it. I am happy with it. Now to play with the styling a bit.

I'm surprised an actual blog mod hasn't been made yet. All major forum software has a functional mod where members can keep track of their own blogs, etc.

Yes, I joined yesterday and I was really looking forward to adding a blog mod to my 2.0.2 SMF forum but it seems there isn't a suitable one. This one is not recommended.

[littlenicki]

I'd throw in USD 75.00 for an up to date rewrite of this mod including image Upload, Calendar etc.

What exactly does a blog for SMF need?

Thanks for the translation!

[BFS010]

I installed on my SMF 2.0.5 without errors.  It gave me a "blog" button in the main menu and as advertised, fields in the the Board creation area to indicate if a board was a blog.  However, when I clicked on the "blog" button in the main menu, I would get an error -- page not found. 

Did I forget to do something?  Or, is this a known issue I can fix if someone could advise?

[Biology Forums]

When will this mod become the full version and get out of Beta testing?

[vbgamer45]

No time soon have other projects I am working on more than likely this will be scrapped and rebuilt.

Any update yet???
