I would like to ask a few questions of how to build a blog, I've think I've managed to figure out most of the things but I would like to have some advise of how to create an archive page (or pages).
First some background: I've currently implemented the blog with one entry per page, each page is named according to this format: Blog.YYYYMMDDHHMMSS for example Blog.20080506235832s Each page has the following format ---------------------------------------------------------------------- (:title Some clever title :) (:bdate:2008-05-06 23:58:32:) (:btags:one|two|three:) Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit. Integer mi dui, varius non, fermentum eget, adipiscing in, odio. Cum ---------------------------------------------------------------------- I'm trying to figure out what is the best way to create some archive pages for a blog. I want to have a page with a listing similar to this (but I'm open for other suggestions): 2008 06 - June 05 - May 04 - April 02 - February 01 - January 2007 12 - December 11 - November ... Note that there is no listing for March 2008 since there were no entries made during that month.Each entry would link to a page that contained the entries for that month. A month listing would look like this 2008-05 May 2008-05-01 11:56 kasjh dsaoij dasjd dsajdsjkds jdks 2008-05-01 15:23 jlkj fdsiojrew jdsalj dasljd alskdjas dsalj ... 2008-05-06 23.58 Some clever title 2008-05-07 12:13 daslj dsaöljd sdakj dsalkdj asdlkj I've been trying to figure out how I should create these archive listings. I could probably come up with some way of creating static pages, that is I create the main index page manually and then create an archive page for each month using pagelists for creating the actual listing. But it would be *much* nicer if everything was created dynamically ... unfortunately I don't have an idea if this is possible and if it's practical (and efficient) to do it this way. I would appreciate any comments/suggestions you have. jem -- Jan Erik Moström, www.mostrom.pp.se _______________________________________________ pmwiki-users mailing list pmwiki-users@pmichaud.com http://www.pmichaud.com/mailman/listinfo/pmwiki-users
