CF Blog App with pinging and linkbacks
Are there any open source CF Blogs that enable services like Ping-O-Matic and or linkbacks? Terry Troxel ~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?

Re: CF Blog App with pinging and linkbacks
Have you checked RIAForge? Not sure what you mean by Ping-O-Matic. BlogCFC supports pinging N services on blog entry writing. As for linkbacks - if you mean trackbacks, BlogCFC supports it, but no one uses it. TBs just become spam baits.

Re: multiuser CF blog app?
Pretty much the only customization a blog owner can do without having access to the template and css files themselves is override the default CSS with their own CSS (it's an option in the admin). But you'd really have to be a CSS guru to make changes like that. Ok, thanks for the info. I've been hoping to find CF based blog software that is easy to upgrade, but I'm not sure if there are any out there. I'm on BlogCFC right now, and it's cool but upgrading to new versions takes a while. If you want, take a look at AVBlog. It does not still support multiuser blogs but it's full featured, easy to upgrade, all XHTML + CSS driven (and skinnable) and near to the 1.5 release (with some imports wizards too).

Re: multiuser CF blog app?
BlogCFM was designed to allow multiple blogs in a single database. Every table has a blog_id field, and the blog_id can be set in the application.cfm in a variety of ways. There's only one installation, one database, one file structure. Each instance has its own directory for files and such but the main blog files are only in one location. The way you would set it up would be to install the blog .. for example, at blog.foobar.com. And then set up a wildcard DNS record for *.foobar.com so it'll respond to anything.foobar.com And then in the application.cfm you can look at the host headers to determine what to set the blog_id to. Ultimately, it's not an out of the box system... because you'd probably want to build some sort of external app to allow people to sign up and choose their own hostname like rick.footbar.com, and it would store that hostname in a table along with the blog_id and such.. you get the idea. there are also a few bugs in the current version of blogcfm that I haven't had a lot of time to work on.. maybe I'll work on it today :) www.blogcfm.org There's a demo there so you can see how the interface works and everything.

How hard is it to customize the layout? An initial customization isn't a big deal, but I'd have to do it for each new BlogCFM release as well, unless you've got some cool templating going on. That's what I liked about Blogger, when I was still using it.

Re: multiuser CF blog app?
One of the updates to BlogCFC5 was a CSS based layout. (Thanks to Scott Stroz.) This should reduce that amount of mods you would do and therefore making updating easier.

Re: multiuser CF blog app?
Ray's blog is good and used by most of us cf coder types... But blogfusion is also an excellent product. Unfortunately the client has already purchased BlogFusion and is dropping it cuz it doesn't support multiple users. I set it up for them and I have to say it wasn't a good experience. Variables being set in /Application.cfm without being inside of a cfif isdefined() or something similar, which is forgivable I suppose, but a bad sign. The database installer is built so that if it detects tables that it wants already exist... it drops them and creates its own under the assumption that they must belong to BF I guess ... and it uses simple table names like 'users'. So if you try and use it on an existing dsn and a table name collides you are royally screwed if you just run the installer without reading over it and finding this little bomb. This also essentially requires that you put BF into its own dsn given the method of naming tables. Plus it doesn't support username and password in cfquery, so you have to put those into the dsn in cf admin or revise all of the queries, which I did.

Re: multiuser CF blog app?
When I built BlogCFM, I did so because Ray's blogCFC was missing a lot of features that I wanted. Friendly URLs, captcha, CSS-based design, etc. Over the years, blogCFC has added most of those features, and while it still lacks some features that I wanted, and still does some things that I don't like (like the popup window for commenting), it's a damn fine blog tool, more robust than mine, and has a much much larger userbase for development. blogCFM 1.11 was buggy and it took me 10 months to release fixes =) BlogCFM 1.12 may be the last release, as I'm far more interested in CFMBB and CFOpenChat these days.

Re: Blog app
Actually, and I dont mean to trash Oracle here as I'm quite fond it. But MSSQL is a bit faster than Oracle on smaller data sets. Oracle doesn't beat MSSQL in performance until you hit 10ks of rows. So technically it's underkill. :-P -Adam On Fri, 4 Feb 2005 12:57:42 -0500, Daniel Kessler [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: At 12:01 PM -0500 2/3/05, CF-Talk wrote: Y'know, I use Oracle as the DBMS for my blog.

I didn't figure there'd be a whole lot of demand for running a blog app on Oracle =) Actually it shouldn't be too hard to convert. There are three issues with converting to Oracle #1 - Oracle can't group by clob fields, which I do in one query. but neither can SQL Server so I'm gonna solve that with the next release anyway. #2 - COMMENT isn't a valid column name in Oracle. So I'll have to go through and change that fieldname to something like COMMENT_TEXT ... I'll probably do that in the next release too.. #3 - Apparently there are no Month() and Year() functions, which is fine, neither does postgres... so I'll have to figure out how to create those functions too.

RE: Blog app
Rick, I'd like to put a blog on our University's web site for all students and faculty. Will your blog app handle a situation like that? The web site is secured by Active Directory authentication meaning I have a username for everyone. Is there a way to have the blog automatically know the currently-logged on user and allow them to only modify their own blog?

RE: Blog app
I did something like that for TikiWiki two years ago. My technique was to use the database as a cache of the LDAP information. I would query the LDAP server first, if the member was found then either update the database or create a new account for them using the LDAP information. If the account was not found in the LDAP server then I would query the database per usual. I also added a part to create the LDAP user if it wasn't found, but that's probably a bit more than you want. -- Damien McKenna - Web Developer - [EMAIL PROTECTED] The Limu Company - http://www.thelimucompany.com/ - 407-804-1014 #include stdjoke.h -Original Message- From: Rick Root [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] It would take quite a lot of customization at this point to integrate with activedirectory authentication, a shared user database, etc...

New CF Blog App
If anyone is interested, I'm making excellent progress on my new coldfusion blogging tool which I will release under open source. It's called BlogCFM. Currently only running under CFMX 6.1 with MySQL, I plan to test it with BlueDragon too, eventually. Two big features that I like about it (hey I like the whole thing) 1. Option to generate individual files for each blog entry and use those links (1.cfm) instead of entry.cfm?entry_id=1. 2. Optionally require users to authenticate before posting comments. 3. Optionally use an HTML editor for posting entries. It also gives you the ability to edit existing entries and delete comments. Please take a look at http://www.webworksllc.com/blogcfm I hope to release a beta version in the next week or so.

My CFOpen username is hereticmessiah, if you want to add me to the project. If you want, I could let you have a peek at my own weblogging software. (FusionBlog) It's more sophisticated than yours in some ways, and less so in others. I've been dragging my feet on some features such as categories, and I purposely kept the comments system completely seperate from the blogging software 'cause I wanted to use it on some of the pages on my site that weren't part of the weblog. It's also got sweet URLs like: http://talideon.com/weblog/2004/12/spammers-are-scum.cfm And it generates nice, clean RSS 2.0. I've been dragging my heels on implementing Atom, but it'd be trivial to add. I haven't implemented categories yet 'cause I've yet to think of a way that doesn't suck a little. It was all hacked together, on paper, over the course of a night. Surprisingly, it somehow managed to work first time!

RE: ColdFusion Blog App from Macromedia DevNet Resource Kit V5
So, Heidi, I think you asked for feedback, but instead you got caught in a crossfire of insults between developers. None of which I am willing to bet has even used Blogman. I have used it and have some feedback... 1. There is no spot in the config.XML doc to specify a mail server, so it relies on the default (if there is one). I added an option to include one per blog. 2. Multiple people can contribute to the same blog, and they all have equal control. While I'm not sure that any two people will need to contribute to the same blog, if they did... there is no reason for them to be able to step on each others toes. Also, makes the multi-accounts feature useless. 3. There is no mention of securing your XML files. Some of which (config, users, emailsub, commentsub) if browsed to will reveal all user accounts and other sensitive info. 4. It is not immediately intuitive that you must create a category to begin blogging. I'm not sure that a category should be required, as most Blogs are general. 5. Without re-engineering it, It was difficult to set up blogs for multiple people without making duplicates of the entire app. A better architecture would be: -Blogman - App Files (CFCs) - Master Admin - Blogger Admin ? blogger_id = xxx - Blogs -Blog1 -Blog2 -Blog3 To give my opinion. I love the apps that come with DRK because they are current and relevant... And when some Senior Manager withno clue about technology says Hey, can you build me one of those blog applications I can say Sure without telling him what I really feel. They also provide me with a (usually) well architechted platform to build on top of... and are a great resource to beginner developers. Anyone threatened by MM creating software should re-think their career choice, because by putting out these applications they are both creating a market for us, and giving us the code to add to our entourage. -Igor -cccfug.org -Original Message- From: Heidi Voltmer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, December 16, 2003 2:31 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: ColdFusion Blog App from Macromedia DevNet Resource Kit V5 The Macromedia DevNet Resource Kit team is looking for suggestions on how to improve or enhance the ColdFusion Blog App (a.k.a.

Re:ColdFusion Blog App from Macromedia DevNet Resource Kit V5
Perhaps a better investment of Macromedia's resources would be to create applications with a bigger potential user base. A blogging application is kind of useless to most people. We frequently come across them (blogs) because of the nature of our work, but something like a Newletter Manager, an Events Manager, a Web Photo Album would appeal to a wider audience. Sorry I can't offer a specific answer to your question! (I have a DevNet subscription, but -like most people- have no use for a blog).

Re:ColdFusion Blog App from Macromedia DevNet Resource Kit V5
Hey, Matt: thanks for the personal attack, but I must inform you that I don't need any cheap applications. My guess is that you were probably trying to sell some of the ones you produce (real cheap in your case - using the Milonic DHTML menu beast, for example). Aren't you chopping down some sort of base? In any case, all those applications in the DevNet subscription are bare bones applications that need further development time and effort before they are sold to most non-developer clients. They don't undermine anything. I wouldn't feel threatened by them, but it's your right to feel different, of course. irv Irvin Gomez wrote: Perhaps a better investment of Macromedia's resources would be to create applications with a bigger potential user base Macromedia chopping down their developer base by starting to build end-user applications?As a developer I'd call that a pretty bad idea...
