Hello,

While logged in as admin, I can see and use the "My Blog" link on the front page of my site. When not logged in, the link is not available. I checked the permissions but the blog module doesn't have an option for setting permissions for the link. I'm sure that the permissions need to be set someplace but I can't seem to figure out where.

Thanks for your help.

My blog is specific to an authenticated user. If you aren't logged in, you don't have a blog, and you don't see the link.

If you just want anonymous users to be able to view the blogs, you can create a link to www.example.com/blog;, or promote the blog entries to the front page; or create a view to display the entries you want. There's a lot of possibilities.

aahhh.....okay. Maybe creating the link is the best way to go. I would like someone that is visiting my page be able to click on a link that takes them to my blog entries only. Well, I do promote the entries to the front page so maybe I won't have to really worry about it.

Thanks for the help!

you can create a menu link listing to your blog teaser list. administer -> menu items, use the path to your blog for the path in the menu item

Once I'm in menu items, how would I create the link? I just created a new page and titled it "About Me". I would like to do the same with this new page, create a Navigation link on the front page.

Thanks for all the help!

first you create the page
then you assign it a path
then you link to it

with your blog, you want blog/1 unless you've altered that path in some way with a url alias

Thanks. I'll see if i can get a path assigned and then link it.
