RE: SV: [xwiki-users] How to make a new blog

Not sure if you're using the Panels app for your wiki, but if you are it's quite easy. Here's a snippet from my own "Add Topic" panel: ##==== #set($sDocWeb=$doc.web) ##Only show the panel if it is logged in. #if(false == $xwiki.getUserName($context.user, false).equals("XWikiGuest")) #panelheader('Add Topic') #if("Meetings" == $sDocWeb) #set($g_sParentForTopics="Meetings.WebHome") #set($g_sTemplateForTopics="Meetings.ArticleClassTemplate") #set($g_sWebNameForTopics="Meetings") #elseif("Sales" == $sDocWeb) #set($g_sParentForTopics="Sales.WebHome") #set($g_sTemplateForTopics="Sales.ArticleClassTemplate") #set($g_sWebNameForTopics="Sales") #else #set($g_sParentForTopics="Main.WebHome") #set($g_sTemplateForTopics="XWiki.ArticleClassTemplate") #set($g_sWebNameForTopics="Main") #end #includeTopic("XWiki.XWikiCommonJavascript") <form action="" id="newdoc"> <div class="padded centered"> <input type="hidden" name="parent" value="${g_sParentForTopics}" /> <input type="hidden" name="template" value="${g_sTemplateForTopics}" /> <input type="hidden" name="sheet" value="1" /> <input type="hidden" name="webname" value="${g_sWebNameForTopics}"/> <input type="hidden" name="name" value=""/> <input type="text" name="title" value="Title" class="panelinput" style="width:100px" onfocus="if(this.value=='Title') this.value=''" onblur="if(this.value=='') this.value='Title'"/> <input type="button" class="button" value="$msg.get("create")" onclick='if (updateName(this.form.title,this.form.name)) { action="../../inline/" + this.form.webname.value + "/" + this.form.name.value; this.form.submit(); }' /> </div> </form> #panelfooter() #end" panel: ##==== notes: Nope it's not perfect. It was thrown together in a rush, so there are bound to be far better ways of doing this. Note that you can use a similar concept for a navigation panel so you retain the ability to add categories, etc; as well as the Blog.Macro document so that you have only one file to update to cahnge listing layout. -----Original Message----- From: Karin Wiklund [mailto:karin.wiklund@idainfront.se] Sent: 11 July 2007 14:39 To: xwiki-users(a)objectweb.org Subject: SV: SV: [xwiki-users] How to make a new blog Thank you so much, both Erin and Vincent. I have managed to get different spaces to display blog post of only their own space, however I can't make blog entries in any other spaces than the original blog space. (lucky me there are entries in Main so I can know the filtering works...) Could someone please be a little more detailed about the how, where and what should be changed? Any code snippets to be had? It would be great!

Just adjust the "Add news" form to include a space/web as input (or copy the "Add news" to the space you want, and fill in the space/web value), and as Vincent said, filter display of news from within those spaces.. that is, make a "NewSpace.News" or "NewSpace.Blog" page that lists only those entries belonging to the space, and you're done.
