[Charles Hill]

In the blog control panel.. in the Admin-only blog options sub menu... "Hide blog boards on the board index"

[runebergen]

is it compatible with Simple Portal yet? 

Tried looking for the change log, about it

[Charles Hill]

Yes 2.0.2 Beta is compatible with Simple Portal and Tiny Portal.  I will be releasing the install and upgrade packages for this new version later today.

[Charles Hill]

Just updated to 2.0.2 Beta

*fixed* pngfix.js now included
*fixed* Install error in /index.php for users with TinyPortal or Simple Portal already installed
*fixed* Undefined index: scripturl error in Who.php
*fixed* Renamed getArticles function to getBlogArticles to make Blog Community compatible with Simple Portal
*fixed* Mysql error when converting boards to blogs
*new* Admin option to hide all portal blocks on blog pages (tiny portal AND simple portal)
*new* Blog Index side windows (two optional windows: Global Tags and Most Recent)
*new* Added more "share" options (and now you can pick and choose which options to use for each blog)
*new* Three new side windows for blogs: Most Commented, Recent Comments, and Polls
*new* Added plug-in "slots" for future add-ons/plug-ins.  One slot is below the "share" and "options" in the width="60" column next to the article's body text.  The other is below the "options" in the width="60" column next to the comment's body text.  This will make it a lot easier to install/uninstall add-ons/plug-ins for these two areas.  Plug-ins/Add-ons that could go here: Moods, Article Ratings, etc.  Five other plug-in slots in various locations in the other blog sources files.
*new* Plug-ins submenu in Main area of blog control panel (for admin only)
*changed* prepareDefaultBlogSettings function moved to its own file: BlogSettings.php (this will make upgrading a lot easier and cleaner for future versions)
*changed* removed text censoring for editing/adding custom windows, links, and categories (everything should be censored before it is displayed anywhere except the blog control panel, though)
*changed* created a function just for tag font sizes (tag windows).  Should more accurately resize tags based on how many articles in which a specific tag is used as well as how many total instances of tags there are.
*changed* added admin options for guest CAPTCHA posting verification (can now disable entirely or disable for non-blog boards only)
*changed* got rid of unnecessary redirect changes in several SMF sources file... Display and MessageIndex handle most blog page redirects anyways

Can I upgrade to this from 1.11 or should I uninstall 1.11 and install fresh?

[Nibogo]

NICE!!!!

I love it , thanks

Have to uninstall 1.11

[mediabob]

Got it working, looks great, it shows how much work you put in to this blog, this is easily one of the most awesome mods I have ever seen.

Also another cool side note, on my Tint Portal main page I had a block (experimental) on the main page that pulled all the recent blogs by checking for the most recent posts in the forum designated for blogs. Before with 1.11 it would link to the blog, but when you clicked the link that way it took you to the standard forum view, now it takes it straight to the blog just like it should, so I don't know what you did different there but I like it

Hello,

Is there any metode to disable all blog post to recent topic (Main Forum) ?

Thanks

[Charles Hill]

In your blog control panel..... Main ... Admin-Only Blog Options...

Don't count articles and comments in forum topic/post totals

Hide blog boards on the board index

Hide all articles and comments from your forum's recent posts (Be sure to Recount all forum totals and statistics after changing this setting)

Hello,

I already tried your instruction, but the post still appears on recent topic (Main Forum)

[Charles Hill]

You're using what mod?  Tiny portal?  If that's tiny portal, you can hide the portal blocks on all blog pages with "Hide portal blocks on all blog pages"

I haven't made any portal specific add-ons for Blog Community yet.

[jkrlvgn]

....so you're using portal system, which pulls the recent posts in a different way.  remember that it's important to document what you're actually referring to when posting an issue.  If you look in the recent posts from the SMF part, it won't be there.

This might be something that you want to talk to the people at the portal system about, since it's part of their system of how they pull it up.  This mod was made for SMF, and the additions to the mod to make it work with TP and Simple Portal don't modify those mods at all.

[Furqon]

oww .. ok then .. thanks a lot for your reply ..

[djrem]

Charles Hill for gold!

Many thanks buddy for such an awesome update

will be fully live on our site soon

anybody can make block code snippet for tp for the latest image in mgallery?

[mediabob]

@ Furgon, the standard TP recent post block will pull all recent forums posts, since the blog uses modified forum posts it will still pull those as well, you will have to code your own recent post block that excludes the forums that you use for blogs. I use this in a PHP block

Code Select Expand


global $context, $scripturl;
$bullet = '<img src="'.$settings['images_url'].'/TPdivider.gif" alt="" border="0" style="margin:0 2px 0 0;" />';
// 10 is the number of posts to return, 2,3 are the boards that I want to exclude (blog boards)
$result=ssi_recentTopics(10,array(2,3),'return');
foreach($result as $my){
  echo "$bullet";
  echo '<span class="smalltext">'.$my['link'];
  // is this topic new? (assume they are logged in)
if (!$my['new'] && $context['user']['is_logged'])
echo '
<a href="', $scripturl, '?topic=', $my['topic'], '.from', $my['newtime'], '#new"><img src="', $settings['images_url'], '/', $context['user']['language'], '/new.gif" alt="', $txt[302], '" border="0" /></a>';
echo '<br>';
}
echo '</span>';

Hi!

Well, I finally got a chance to install the new version and I have a few questions. 

Is there any way possible to put the blog index in the Main Menu Bar (i.e., home | Help | Search | Profile | ...) such as you have in the degreesofzero site?  How would I do that?

Thanks for the mod-- it looks great otherwise.
