Coolest pLog implementation ever
17. Sep. 2005What do you get if you link an Asterisk PBX to a pLog blog? The answer is Classcaster.org!
Even though Classcaster is not a public service (it is restricted to members of the CALI schools) we think it's really worth mentioning it here because of its potential for other applications. Users can call a certain phone number and posts are automatically published to a pLog blog via the XMLRPC interface, and there's even a demo blog for you to test.
YEAH!!!
That is exaclty what I want to do with my blog. The sign in area, the latest blog post from the blogs on the system, a list of most read articles and a list of most commented.
How do you do all of that? I wish I knew PHP more... back to the drawing board!
*goes back into his blog service and tries to do the same thing that Cali Class did*
You may notice, each blog is on a sub domain.
This is in the pLog admin section...
You can do either that, or change the "URLs" option in the admin page for custom formats.
e.g. /blog/{blogname}
Into /blog_{blogname}.php etc..
This will work best if you have Apache's mod_rewrite
" How do you do all of that? I wish I knew PHP more "
You don't have to know PHP ;)
That's the beauty of templates...
Just visit your "summary.php" page and you'll see why.
Users can register or you can take out the register link in the /templates/summary/header.template file and enter users in manually.
Everything is there right in the summary page for you to do this.
