Blog

The Blog blueprint allows for the creation of a simple blog, with posts and comments. In order to make use of the commenting feature, you need an Akismet key (link to desc. in FAQ).

It's a great candidate for inheritance.

The Model

There are three key models associated with the Blog blueprint: posts, comments and commentators.

(is this stuff worth going on with? Is it worth describing this stuff when it's readily available in the Blueprint code?)

Actions

The key actions for the Blog blueprint are:

index: An array of the ten most recently-published posts, plus basic page information (title and settings).

post: The post title and content, plus assets and settings (if any) and comments (if any).

archive: An array of all posts for this blog. The default template for this action uses the helper method xyz, which shows all posts from most recent to least recent, grouped by month.

feed: An RSS feed (format?) of the ten most recent posts.
