hrvoje_hr i will definitely support when my forum gets into a decent hosting environment. 😀 saving funds for it.

    User24 I think @luceos crowdfunding idea he teased would be perfect here and really promote the development of this extension as well as many others. I've donated the past few months to v17 using their donation site, but I would much rather "donate" in the form of crowdfunding/bounty for features and continued development.

      hrvoje_hr I see I haven't joined the Discord server yet and the join link is expired 🙁 Can you update it? 😃

      I also want to update everyone here. I am currently really busy with finishing my study at this moment. Unfortunately, it now takes most of my time as the end is (finally) nearby. This is the reason there weren't any updates and replies last few weeks. So just to be clear, we haven't forgotten Flarum, we're still thrilled to build more!

      Next month I should (hopefully) finish my study forever, so in July we'll start working on a lot of updates and improvements again!

        We are forever grateful for your continuous support for this extension. The Crowdfunding idea is very interesting. We love working on Flarum Blogs. The community support for this extension is great!

        It would be great to get this continue.
        We will try to contribute, a small donation is always welcomed I believe.

        i wish to get a custom feature (something different 😅 and exclusive to my forum) and wish to hear out from dev about its cost. So where can i ask it?

        Edit: I want those feature in blog extention

          Exciting stuff everyone. @Darkle came up with concept of Blog Components on our Discord server. In short, it's inspired by @SychO Widgets Core extension. The idea is to separate all Blog elements into the Components and move them freely between Layout positions. @askvortsov explained how it should be done on technical side with some innovative solutions and @PascalBoschma basically gave his blessing with "I'm in" reply. Hype went above 9000.

          Some concept images:

          Front page by Darkle

          More refined concept by me

          Composer complete redesign

          Front page redesign

          More concepts, 2

          You can find all stuff expected in Blog 1.0 extension here on our newly launched Trello board:
          https://trello.com/b/zr2xtYKZ/flarum-blog-road-to-10

          In next days we will try to make a deal with guys from V17 development (I hope @askvortsov will join them too), discuss what can and can't be done and how much it will cost. After we get a quote I will try to organize a funding pot and get it crowdfunded.

          With everything planned for 1.0, Flarum Blog will become fantastic alternative to Wordpress and other CMS systems. Faster, lightweight, robust, expandable and beautiful. Just like Flarum 😍 Potential is huge, I'm sure other developers will see opportunity in all of this and jump on board too.

          I invite you all to share your ideas here, come on our Discord server, follow us on Trello and let's get this train going.

            hrvoje_hr This looks amazing, well done to everyone who has taken part in getting the idea to this stage,

            hrvoje_hr related posts? Schema support? (Add to wishlist)

            Somone said if I have 5k fof/ pages flarum will get slow 🤔

            Like Gatsby once we create a Page can you store it as a static file is that possible? 😍

              Hari related posts?

              You can find on our Trello board that we suggested compatibility with @Justoverclock related discussions extension. If done, that would be basic extension with generated list of related post just like it is now.

              For more complex solution (with thumbnails like my concept bellow) I think someone will develop a premium extension. I'm interested in it too.

              Hari Somone said if I have 5k fof/ pages flarum will get slow

              Idk that will be an issue with Blog. Blog posts are basically modified discussions, and I have more then 8k of them on Flarum site I manage. At one point we had over 15k discussions and everything was fine.

              Hari Schema support?

              Can you explain more? I think Flarum SEO already support it. But yes, it's currently not compatible during some issue with extenders. It should be fixed for 1.0 too.
