Pillaging The Pip

So, you've finally decided to give it a try . It's funny that I answer you in English when we both know Romanian but... what a heck... this way we'll both improve our English

 

For the categories I will solve the problem this night. It's a bug in the blog software but the people who are responsible for this bug have just released a new version that will fix this problem. So, I will install it today.

 

Now, about the blocks from the side panels... As you've probably noticed, you can move them (by dragging) and position them to the left or the right sidebars. You can also close them from the big "X" or add new blocks from the "content blocks" menu on the top of your page. Each block provide aditional informations to you or to your readers. If you want additional informations for a particular block, you can ask me. Also, you can create new blocks with any content you wish to be visible anywhere on your blog.

 

About the entries... As you mentioned, they should be published before anyone beside you (and me... because I'm the almighty Administrator ) can see them. On the bottom of every entry you have some buttons for editing, deleting, locking or drafting (make them visible only by you) the articles. Also, you have links for viewing the comments, trackbacks and the permalink (not very important) of the entry. The trackbacks are links to other blogs from the internet who write about YOUR blog. When someone on the internet talks about one of your articles and links to it, the system will automatically inform your blog about this and your blog will add a link in trackbacks. To activate this behavior, go in "your blog settings > interfaces" and check "Allow Blog entry Trackbacks". Is more easy to explain in Romanian so if you didn't understood the English version, contact me .

 

The "your blog settings" button opens the... yes, the settings window . If you don't understand a setting, don't hesitate to ask.

 

 

[edit] Now the categories should work

Hi Stefan and thanks a lot for the reply. If I'll have any requests I would ask you directly on PM. Anyhow, the offer to explain the settings is warm welcomed. Maybe you can find some free time and write a small (Romanian is ok too) description of the " blog settings" page on the forum. At least you would get some curious guys looking around and maybe some of them would try to open blogs, just to check if your description of the settings is right And maybe some of them will stay...

 

For me at least, such description could be very useful...

 

Related to my blog, please give me some time. Up to now, I have no idea what should I start with, and what people are interested to hear. I am still preparing some materials.
