Blog - Adds a blog section to your community

Darkle

DarkXero I think this behaviour is done on purpose, and in my opinion it makes perfect sense. Home is the only tag there, the rest are subtags of Home, so you need to go into Home to see the subtags. Exactly the same happens in flarum navigation, here is a graphic example:

When you enter https://discuss.flarum.org/t/support the subtags appear, when you enter https://discuss.flarum.org/ they don't. Imagine a forum with dozens of subcategories per category how crazy it would be to show all the subcategories in the root.

Just turn the subtags into primary tags (if that's what you want them to be) and add them all to the blog.

DarkXero

Darkle if it is the case how was it working the way I want on older site? Whatever how can I make sub categories show on home page? This is a blog not forum so I need to show categories on root...

askvortsov

DarkXero Because with the v1.0 release, we started lazy-loading secondary tags for scalability and performance purposes

DarkXero

askvortsov ok so how to show categories on root? No way?

Darkle

DarkXero As I said before you have the option to convert the subcategories into categories in this way they would always be displayed.

askvortsov

Darkle Or this extension would need to proactively load children of primary categories.

DarkXero

Darkle how? Please for the love of everything that is Holy tell me how? I am going bonkers hehe

Darkle

askvortsov Yeah, in that case I think an issue has to be opened about it, if I remember correctly nothing related to it has been posted.

DarkXero Well first you have to go to the Tags extension, I guess your Home tag should have a structure similar to this:

Drag the subtags out of there to turn them into primary tags.

Then go to the blog extension, and in the select blog categories button, activate the switch for each of the tags.

Hey,

I have installed this awesome extension, thank you to the author.

I have a request for improvement if possible: add a "Save as draft" button.
I would have to write some articles but not all at once. And as I'm the administrator, I have to post without moderation (because I'm the moderator!)
Would this be possible?

murdocklawless

llohoz yes this is a must. also blog users should only be able to select blog categories. All categories can be selected while creating a blog.

another thing, if some users publish blog and waiting to be approved, a notification should come to the admins.

Stereosushi

It would be cool to add the ability to specify the time of reading the article.

This value would be displayed in the list of all articles and when viewing the article.

thank you to the author for this awesome extension

Is there a way that I can change post dates? I’ve tried to in the database and nothing happens.

hrvoje_hr

Fait yes, you can do that with Discussion and post author and date change extension.

Hello All,

Thank you for great extension first of all. And my i ask you any possiblity to add new feature to extension. I think read time feature will be perfectly match with blog extension. Is it possible ? if yes how can i do it ?

murdocklawless

very nice extension but writing window is a little small, I think it should be flexible.

edit:

forum menu do not show up correctly on mobile;

NightDriller

Very nice extension. However I've run into a problem where if you hide a blog and go back to it later you'll get a ReferenceError: buttons is not defined JS error, the manage blog buttons will be missing as a result. Unfortunately this makes it difficult to draft a blog.

I also have this bug: murdocklawless

And when viewing a blog on mobile the top navigation has no label, it's just an up and down arrow. It should say Blog.

Jishnu

murdocklawless yes , i previously pointed this one . This is a must have feature

murdocklawless

the red frame is too wide, it will be better to narrow this block, so the blog part can be wider.

into your CSS
@media (min-width: 768px) { #app .FlarumBlogItem .FlarumBlog-Article .FlarumBlog-Article-Sidebar { width: 250px; /* the width you need */ }

UI Bug:

A blog post pending approval.

HasanMerkit

Another bug:
If user refresing "/all" page, blog posts not shows in list. That's okey but,
If user click to "All Discoussions" link again, blog posts listing.
