chilipie 0 Report post Posted November 30, 2004 Anyone here used WordPress for a blog? I'm interested in seeing the code that people have used for the templates - I'm not really sure how to put it all together. Just in case you don't know what WordPress is - it's basically a PHP/MySQL blogging program that helps you build your own weblog. https://wordpress.org/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jcguy 0 Report post Posted December 1, 2004 Here's a simply definition of blogs from marketingterms.com Quote blog A frequent, chronological publication of personal thoughts and Web links.InformationA blog is often a mixture of what is happening in a person's life and what is happening on the Web, a kind of hybrid diary/guide site, although there are as many unique types of blogs as there are people.People maintained blogs long before the term was coined, but the trend gained momentum with the introduction of automated published systems, most notably Blogger at blogger.com. Thousands of people use services such as Blogger to simplify and accelerate the publishing process.Blogs are alternatively called web logs or weblogs. However, "blog" seems less likely to cause confusion, as "web log" can also mean a server's log files.http://www.marketingterms.com/dictionary/blog/ Wordpress (not Webpress) is a software or tool that allows you to set up a blog and blog on it.I personally have not tried Wordpress because I think Movable Type is the best blogging tool out there but I've seen blogs based on Wordpress that look damn cool Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The design team is constantly doing it better and better and there are also quite promising mod scene starting up. I particularly like the PN gallery mod which allows you to easily include images from Coppermine photo gallery to your blog posts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jcguy 0 Report post Posted December 17, 2004 I think one important factor you have to consider when deciding which blog system is good is the number of third-party developers working on plugins for the system. What makes Firefix a great browser is the large number of free useful plugins developed by third parties which anyone can use.As for blogs, there are many many developers writing plugins for Movable Type. That's why MT is popular and highly functional Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
