Hi, I am currently evaluating community server and I haven't done much in customizations. However one thing I wanted to change was how the blog box on the welcome page (first page that anonymous users see). My issue is that the posts all kind of seem part of the same blog. Is there a way I can make it more obvious to the user that the posts might be from a couple different blogs?
Here is a way that I went about it.
First I didn't want any comments to the blogs, just posts and articles.
Find the section <QueryOverrides BlogPostType="Article,Post..." in your home.aspx page
BlogPostType controls what will be shown.
I removed Comments.
I then added the following in the ItemTemplate section:
Posted in: <CSBlog:WeblogData Property="Name" LinkTo="HomePage" runat="server" /><br />
This displays a link to the forum where the post can be found.
I did a similar thing for forums. The current setup gets confusing as to whether or not a post pertains to your version and such.
Hope this helps.
Randy
