Set Up

  1. Configure your blogsettings.xml to match your requirements. At a minimum you MUST set the <hostname> properties to match your current setup. Read the [Configuration] section for more information.

  2. The file called /blog/_site.xconf should have the following content:

    <?xml version="1.0"?>
    <page>
    
	<property name="fallbackdirectory">/WEB-INF/base/blog</property>
    
	<property name="bloghome">/blog</property>
    </page>

*note - if you are using a directory other than /blog (example: /news), replace /blog with your folder name. This is important for sites that have more than one blog module installed.

Related files:

/blog/ - Blogs should be stored in a directory that is one level deep. Another common name for a corporate web site is /community or /news

/blog/description.html - This is an optional header text for the top of the blog

/blog/links.xml - This will be created and holds a list of all the links on your blog
