Blogs Upgraded - PLEASE READ
 

Blogs have been upgraded with the following features:
* Blog Customization - users may customize their blogs in the same manner that they can customize their user profiles.
* Group Blogs - users may allow other users to post to their blog.
* Sidebar Blocks - users may create custom blocks to display in their sidebar. These blocks can be rearranged by drag and drop.
* Custom Pages - users may create custom pages to be displayed in their blog.
* Tags - tag support has been included.
* Private Entries - users may set specific entries to be private while leaving their blog open.

In addition, you now have the ability to deny access to your blog from the outside. There are 3 levels: Everyone, Members, Friends. So, you can set your blog to be viewable by anyone and everyone who visits the site (even Google) or you can limit it to ONLY registered members of the site, or you can limit it to just the members on your friends list.

In a week or so, I am going to be changing the global permissions setting to allow all users (even unregistered guests) to view the blogs, so it will be up to YOU to limit access to your blog how you see fit.

Thank you.

Sweet. Thanks for the hard work.

The Google-searchable option could be good for traffic.

Is the visibility setting (everyone/members/friends) blog-wide, or can it be applied on a post-by-post basis?

:)

unlike before which was a blog wide solution, this is post by bost.

both

post by bost..... woah. what in the world was I trying to say???

oh that.

Hawt. Even if it's post by bost.

from what I can tell it's either, OPEN to the community, or CONTACTS (friends) I really don't know why they chose different words for it.

You can select it for each entry.

TFP: Soopa HAWT Options Galore!

Thanks for all of your hard work on updating the blogs! I appreciate it. In case you couldn't tell, they're one of my favorite things about TFP.

was wondering why they weren't working last night..

thanks for the upgrades!!

much appreciated. i really enjoy the blog feature..

Is there any way to export these blogs like we could our journals?

I don't see a simple ready way just yet, but I'm still monkeying around with all the new features. I will keep an eye out for something that does this function.
