Re: A blog from scratch?

Hi Lawson, I'm trying to start a blog from scratch, but I can't get it to use the Not sure I understand what you're asking. Is it how do I create a new blog entry? If so: login using admin/pier (login link bottom left) navigate to /pier/blog click on commands:add (link bottom left) click on the add button on the next form fill in "source title" "contents" and press the "current" button for the "publication" field then press "save" button If instead your question is how do I define my own site which incorporates a blog? Then look at PRDistribution>>root as a starting point for your site's structure. Experiment by removing and adding components until you end up with a structure that works for you. In particular you might find the following lines within PRDistribution>>root a useful starting place for understanding how to customise the look and feel of your site: self rootPage localEnvironment: self mainEnvironmentPage. self blog localEnvironment: self blogEnvironmentPage. which will lead you into examining: PRDistribution>> mainEnvironmentPage PRDistribution>> blogEnvironmentPage Hope that helps Nick
