How can you allow anyone to comment on your blog without requiring them to register? can't seem to find the option anywhere. cheers Granville.

I'm also having this problem. In my case, the blog folders are created on the server at /blogs/username, but they're not visible on the Blogs page.

Nope. But it should be fairly easy to setup. Arraylist blogs = Weblogs.GetWeblogs(); //returns a list of blogs //assumes a dropdown list named ddl ddl.DataSource = blogs; ddl.DataTextField = "Name"; ddl.DataValueField = "Url"; ddl.DataBind(); ddl.Items.Add(new ListItem("--Select a Blog--")); Then...

Is it possible to create a blog entry in a desktop application, like Word, preferably, with embedded images, and the publish the entry, with images in tact to Community Server.

I am planning several topic-specific communities published under different URL's. I want to have a topic-specific blog on each, all written by the same individual blogger. In addition, I want everything written by this individual to appear in a blog (or blogs) on their own personal website. The goal...

Thanks. I'd really like to learn more about how this is working. For example, how are the tags applied? Manually by a site admin? Or are they being read from the RSS? Also, can mirrored items be deleted on an item-by-item basis? Can they be published on an item-by-item basis, so that a blog moderator...

I'm using CS for a single blog, which will be linked to from a website. The Luxinterior skin I'm using has a HOME link under the header image, which currently produces a complete listing of posts. My question is, how can I change the HOME link URL to the other website address? Cheers

nayyeri: Don't forget to give your users "Owner" role in Role manager. In most cases, you should NOT add a user directly to the owners role. To give a user admin access to a specific blog you can do one of two things: Add the user as an owner. To do this, go into the blog admin view...

But in this way, every anonymous user that post a comment will be displayed with a link to his profile. But the user is anonymous! Why the anonymous user get a link to profile.aspx...

Hi There, I hope someone can help. We can add pictures to CS2 blogs, but the email link is not correctly putting in the full URL to the picture on the RSS Feed. Therefore, subscribers do not see the pictures. Can this be resolved? Thanks Nick

I'm working on a blogs only site and have changed the SiteURLs.config file so my blogs are accessed via the root directory rather than /blogs/ director. I've set the physicalPath="/blogs/" so I don't have to change the physical folders around. It's working great as long as you have a "default.aspx...

Is there anyway to change the order of the list of bloggers? I would like to have them listed in alphabetical order according to their blog title.

If I understand you correctly, that's something I've been thinking/yammering about- ..To have an 'parent' blog that aggregates 'children' blogs, like the default aggregate view, but is adding all the features/advantages of an actual blog. I hope to be able to do, too, and use nav "breadcrumb/path...

I'm in the process of creating an online community and I'm evaluating products. So.. 1. I want to be able to offer multiple blog skins to users . Is this an out of the box solution in CS? If not, is it something that could be developed easily? 2. I've been reading a lot of posts about CS 2.0 and...

Hi, Is there anyway in which a link list could be shown on the blog page, preferably on the default theme. Also any idea on how to show popular tags of posts on a blog site like whats done here http://weblogs.asp.net Would appreciate any advice, Thanks, Taz

The Front Page News area of my CS installation has a LOT of blogs on it. I've limited the blogs appearing there to our key blogs. However, some get more traffic than others.

ok - I figured it out. I guess either I'm dumb -couldn't find it in faq/docs - and no one wanted to help point me in the right direction or this is not desired by the cs population. If you want to see wmv's inline easily in your blogs do this - 1) on your post tab - type in your text if you want above...

I am new to CS, and working through some customization issues. In this case, I would like to have certain blogs whose contents are not aggregated for the home page, but which still show post summaries under their particular group listing (ie. blogs/default.aspx?groupid=2). How would one go about that...
