Hi all,
This weekend I was envolved with adding capabilities for the lars-blogger package that I think it is very usefull:
- integrate ratings so a member could evaluate a blog item, access the average rating for each item and access other members ratings. I was very surprised when I saw ratings package from jeff davis in cvs. I never used this package but I found it is very usefull and contains almost all features I thought to integrate with blogger (unless UI). Thanks Jeff!
- add capability to a member forwards a blog item to other members by email like we can do in forums
- add capability to a member post a blog item with images (i think the way I did it is not very good but it seems to work. i use photo-album and htmlarea to do it - users can access a photo-album instance with htmlarea insert image buttom)
Anyone interested could log in at http://novo.lei9840.org.br (not a permanent url) with email mailto:testuser@lei9840.org.br and pass test. Go to "Noticias" link.
Comments are wellcome.
I wonder if we could enhance lars-blogger with new RSS feeds with enclosure like http://www.itconversations.com/rss.html. Also maybe we could develop UI for rating to enhance lars-blogger to offer facilities like itconversations program queue http://www.itconversations.com/help/help-queue.html. Anyone doing something in this directions (maybe AndrewG?)? I would love to help.
