COREBloggin'
Filed Under:
taking this blog to the next level ;-)
After much debate I've finally managed to carve out a Sunday afternoon (thanks Mascha!) and convert this blog from CMFWeblog to COREBlog.
This was quite important to me: COREBlog has got features such as Categories, Trackbacks and - most importantly - Comments.
Actually, it was the Categories that won me over, in the end. (Eventhough SimpleBlog has got those, too...)
Now I can write ahead, whatever comes to my mind without worrying,whether it's "important" enough, or not. I simply assign the relevantcategory and (in theory) it should be then clear for anyone,that whatever I just wrote is perhaps not the biggest current issuein my life, just because it shows up first on my hompeage... ;-)
Another reason, of course, is that Jörg a.ka.a. Der Schockwellenreiter has switched to COREBlog already a while ago and is rather happy with it.
Technically, COREBlog isn't integrated into Plone,so I simply recreated this site's look by creating an additionalskin. Not very elegant, but from the outside you can hardly tellthe difference...
I haven't been able to import more than the last three entriesand currently, the old blog isn't available either... I'm hopingto fix that during the next days, though...
