  • #224: blog: introduction/teaser function...

    Fri, 29 Aug 2008 12:31:18 GMT

    Blog articles can be long. It's good if we have a introduction/teaser function witch only display the first lines of a blog article and has a "continue..." link to the full text version.

    This should be configurable like this: Display the first 3 blog entries in full text, after this display only the first 2 lines, after 10 entries, display only the headline...

    IMHO there is a Problem how to cut the blog article, idea: Display only until the first </p> tag?

    We collected from all users the email address. So we can send notify emails to alls these users.

    We can insert a notifier, if the user want this.

    If the user send a new blog entry or a new comment, then he should get first a preview of the input. After this he can submit it.
