I 've created a few Blogs and want to assign a Blog to one of my users. But I can't seem to find the Blog Owner field anywhere? Can anyone point me in the right direction?

I want a registered users to be able to contribute to Everyone's Blog, but i don't want them to be able to edit, delete (This Blog or other blog post in the blog) everyone else's post when they are done. Currently, people have the option to "Post to this Blog", write their post...

Hello all -- I have been trying to find a way to skin a user profile page in the context of the blog where the information displays (such as on a post or comment) and I cannot find a way to do this. Help would be much appreciated! Here is the scenario: Our site has 3 blogs, each with a unique...

Just upgraded to 2008. I have an alphabetized 1500 entry glossary that I want to upload into one of my blogs. Does it make more sense to create a page where I manually code the whole thing, or to upload multiple entries? Or is there a feature in CS 2008 that might make this easier to create/manage?

Hi We are hoping to upgrade to Community Server 2008 soon, and wonder if it is possible to order comments to blogs in this version? We would prefer to have comments ordered so that the most recent is at the top.

We've had our community running now for a week but the forums and blogs graphs within the Control Panel show no data (0 views). Do these need to be configured independently from the main application? If so, any tips on how to do it?

I was wondering if one of you might be able to shine a light on an issue which has been going around the office for a few days. A number of us have editorial access to the Blogs section of our new community and even though we all agree on the "theoretical" difference between a page and a...

I created a new group in CS 2008 SP1 and called it "Dexter" Since I had a Blog already created in CS that was called "Dexter" CS automatically made this blog the group's blog. That was OK, but, what if I don't want this? Where can I change that? Is it possible to...

Is there a way to enable any registered user who joins a group to post to the group blog?

Hi All, I'd like to create groups where everyone has the ability to blog, and it seem that the group manager role has too much power to hand out to everyone. In a future release, would it be possible to have an additional role, perhaps called "Blogger", that could be assigned to group...

So I ran into the problem I was noticing before with data caching and the REST API. If I add a new blog post using the API with the default cache factor setting of 5, and then get the Blog that I posted to with the API, it should return the Blog with the new post in it but it doesn't. If I set...

Hello to all, I would like to add an internal RSS feed to the Welcome Page of our blog site. More specifically, I would like to add a "Recent Posts" feed that displays excerpts from the most recent blogs and another feed that serves recent posts from a single blog. I have been searching...

Has anyone modified the 'Blog Recent Posts' widget so you could specify a single Blog to show the posts from? We would like to use Blogs to contain lists of events and if we could configure Blog widgets to display only the titles from a single Blog it would give lots of flexibility. Thanks...

I am trying to find an easy way to ensure that individual blog settings on our development, test and production installations of CS2008 are identical. Can we export individual blog settings from CS2008? I found the tables for Site wide and general blog settings, just not the settings for an individual...

For anyone who is interested, I am starting up my CS Tidbits series over on my site again, and will try to do a couple posts a week going over new CS 2008.5 tips. Category link , and my first post for 2008.5 . Enjoy!

I see it as a critical feature for bringing the blogs alive. Regarding the visitors, just give them an option to write their email address to get alerts, that should be a 10 min job :-)

kostis standard problem with tags is that if you leave to the consumers of the site, then you get a very inconsistent approach. e.g. you didnt tag up your original question at all, whilst i included "Moderation", "tags", "changing" as tags in my reply. But that means...

Hi, I am planning to move my blog from Blogger to the express version of Community Server, now I want to maintain accesibility of the old urls which are in a different format. The main and sub domain will remain the same. Is there an elegant way of solving this? -Mark

cnsanford I see in a Blog home page there is a Syndication box where you can turn on ("Go") email subscription to that blog. But after turning it on, I don't see anywhere to turn it off After two weeks I guess this deserves a bump. How do you turn off Blog email subscriptions once you...

Does anyone have sample markup for displaying a Blog Roll in CS2008? I have seen an example of an earlier Blog Roll implementation in CS2007 but did not have any success, did the blog component name change in CS2008. I must be missing something. From what I have read the eralier implementation used used...

I have gone through all the settings in CS2008.5 SP1 and have not been able to figure out why I can not post by Email. Anyone have any thoughts? I get the following error: Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE ...

Just to include more details: I've found that the Archives feature does work for the individual Blogs but not for the /Blogs directory. For example, if you visit the " Market Commentary " blog it does display the Archive list, but when you visit the /Blogs directory nothing appears (not...

Hi there, Is it possible to automatically include a link in the navigation or sidebar of every blog in Community Server (2008.5 SP1 Enterprise) that points to the blog owner's media gallery? I'm imagining that the answer is "no" due to complications with multi-author blogs but thought...
