Advanced Blog
Due to recent engagements, I'm unable to make commits as often as I'd like. I would very much like to bring someone on as co-maintainer. If you are interested, please post in the issue queue. I would prefer someone who already has CVS access and has already created patches for the project.
Advanced blog is designed to expand on the features provided by the core blog module. It also acts as a replacement for the following modules:
Advanced Blog integrates and expands on the features of the above modules in order to provide better navigation of site blogs, allow more options for community blogs, and display blogs in a unique fashion.
Features
- Provides customizable block to display site bloggers.
- Allows users to give their blog a title and description.
- Creates a page of site bloggers that includes author and blog information.
- Enables advanced blog navigation by author, post date, etc.
Dependencies
Requires the Drupal core blog module, and PHP5.
Roadmap
Please test the current beta release. After any bugs have been eliminated, work will begin on the addition of new features.
The 1.x series is very much a Franken-module as it contains a good deal of legacy code from past blog modules (cleaned-up, secured, and made D6 compatible). The 2.x series will be a complete re-work of the module to include new features, cleaner code, and better administrative interface. I've been extremely busy with work, so work on 2.x will likely be targeted for D7. Thank you to everyone who has submitted patches. I will be reviewing that code and integrating it as soon as I get a breather.
My dev versions ARE NOT STABLE. Do not use dev unless you're willing to submit patches/fixes. As I've seen on another developers module page: dev versions will kill a kitten and eat your baby.
Thanks
Initial funding for this project provided by Emergent Behavior for MrsRiley.com.
Also, thanks to the maintainers and contributors of past blog modules.
