Blog Post List layout - images missing

My developer is saying that it is not possible to include post images in the blog post list layout.
Can you confirm if this is correct?
Here is my current blog post list layout http://www.onlineiq.biz/_blog/onlineiq_blog
and images only display when clicking on Post Detail view.
I know this can be acheived with web apps, but just needed to confirm that he is not missing something or that there is a trick we need to be aware of.
thanks

Just add an image into the paragraph of text.
http://www.fueldesign.co.nz/_blog/Fuel_Design_Blog
I think what your developer is doing is using the tag for the layout to show a number of characters rather then the one to show the first paragraph. The latter will allow you to have html such as images but you need to ensure your first paragraph is short and sweet - and intro and the css styles for the image work.
But as you can see, it is defiantly possible.

Having some issues tweaking the Blog Post List Layout to output to adobe Muse

Please see my question progression here from Muse side:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/5109260
So basically, I have watched the videos on BC Gurus and have posed the question on modifying the blog module in muse to get output I want. when I use module {module_blogsitepost} it does not show all the information I want, but when I click a url to a blog post, it jumps to another page that shows the "BLOG TITLE", "BLOG DESCRIPTION", "RECENT POST", TAGS, and "ARCHIVE" which I think would be helpful on the main {module_blogsitepost} module.
So, i took the tags from the "OVERALL BLOG LIST MODULE" which does have that information and pasted into the module {module_blogsitepost} which in BC under modules is Blog Post List Layout. However the output just turns to the image below:
I really do not know what I am doing wrong, if anything at all. Is this a limit of the cooperation between adobe MUSE and BC? Should not make a difference if I am copying all the HTML and passing it into the HTML view of the Module I want. Why is there not a bracket { } module for "OVERALL BLOG LIST MODULE" on the http://kb.worldsecuresystems.com/134/bc_1345.html ?
It is strange that there are modules in BC that do not show code strings to generate the output shown on this list? Is it because this capability is limited? It is strange. Please jump over to my site ( http://furnitureassemblyservice.com/blog.html ) to see what I mean. BTW, I added the Tags Module to the site so that at least shows.
One other question.. And maybe this is a Muse question, I try to add text or objects to the side of the blog entry but they are pushed to the bottom? Not sure if I need to add this into an object with the Module and mark it up in html with a table to make that work? I ask because I am trying to monitize the blog and add banners to the side or top.
Thank you for the time.

The recommended practice is to call preventDefault on the dragStart event.

Can I change the word "permalink" in "Blog Post List Layout"

What I actually am trying to achieve is a "read more" button that I can style.
The only tag I found is the {tag_permalink}. I can put this in a div for styling.
But it results in a button with the word "Permalink" which is confusing.
Now I am looking for a way to make BC print "Read more" instead.
Or did I miss a tag?
I found {tag_blogpostbodypreview,Text} this I can change to {tag_blogpostbodypreview,Read more} but, can I put a div in there?
Or, do you have another suggestion to create a standard read more button (automatically...)

IconItemRenderer doesn't have a generic spark layout like other spark containers. Instead it manually sizes and positions its elements for best performance.
If you want to customize how these elements are positioned you will want to subclass IconItemRenderer and override the measure() and layoutContents() methods.

Template breaks when viewing Blog Post Details Layout

I've made a new ECommerce site with my own template (HTML en CSS). On the Blog Post List is my new template. But when I click on the title or permalink, Then my template breaks and all I see is the text from my template and the blog post detail. What can I do?
Regards,
A.H. Bakker

Yes, just as I suspected. A lot of your CSS, JS and IMAGE assets are referenced incorrectly in your page template or page.
Right now, in your page template you are referecing IMG elements with a "relative URL":
<img src="images/myimage.jpg"/>
That will work fine on the homepage and first-level pages like "/" and "/blog" because the browser will attempt to load:
http://yoursite.com/images.myimage.jpg
But, if like on your blog detail pages which are located deeper in the websites folder structure "/blog/nog-maar-eentje" since this URL places you on the "nag-maareetje" page inside the "blog" folder, your relative URL will lead the browser to try and load
http://yoursite.com/blog/myimage.jpg
That is not the correct location for our images folder which is directory in the site's root folder. To avoid this issue, you need to update your references to all images that's SRC attribute start with "images/" and change it to a "site relative URL" simply by prepending a "/" at the beginnging of the SRC attribute:
<img src="/images/myimage.jpg"/>
You'lll need to replicate this process for your CSS and Javascript references too. CSS references will look like:
<link href="css/style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
Becomes:
<link href="/css/style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
And javascript:
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/lib.js"></script>
Becomes
<script type="text/javascript" src="/js/lib.js"></script>
Anywhere that a reference to a javascript, stylesheet or image starts without a slash, "/" and just begins with the folder or asset ("images/...", "myimage.jpg") are relative URLs. You'll also see URLs that are absolute and those are URLs in your code that start with "http://yoursite.com" or "http://yoursite.businesscatalyst.com". Those you don't have to worry about since they are absolute and won't get mucked up when you are trying to load those from page within your site.
After you edit your page templates you might need to fix the same problem in your pages that are in a subfolder of your site.

Append to a Blog Posts List

I've noticed various ways to bulk-append to a List in SharePoint 2010 - some seemingly better than others - using Excel and Access. Do y'all suppose it's possible to bulk-append to a SharePoint Blog "Posts" list? There appear to be
some read-only columns that might make this difficult.

Hi ,
According to your description, my understanding is that you need to import bulk
blogs into SharePoint blog site’s posts library .
For your issue, here is a blog import tool which is available for SharePoint 2010
http://www.blackbladeinc.com/en-us/products/blogimport/Documents/BlackBlade.BlogImport.UI.zip
For more information, you can have a look at the blog:

Adding blog / news list layout small image

Is it possible to generate a small image of the image attached to a news or blog and include it in the list layout?
I'm trying to accomplish something similar that is available for the product, in the blog or news module.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
thank you,

Hi mfj102,
Please see this thread which discusses this topic: http://forums.adobe.com/message/5853967. As mentioned, the best method would be to re-create a blog using the web app functionality.
Cheers.

Inserting latest blog posts list in Adobe Muse

How can I insert a list of the latest blog posts when working from Adobe Muse? And is it possible to style the blog directly in Muse?
At the moment I have styled the blog in Dreamweaver and syncronized it with Business Catalyst, but I'm not going to update the pages in Dreamweaver, so I was hoping it is possible to use Adobe Muse for this purpose instead.
But the main thing is that I want my front page to display a list of the 3 latest blog post titles.

CMS features, including blogging, will not be part of the Muse 1.0 release. We intend to add CMS features to Muse in the future, that will work with Adobe's Business Catalyst platform. BC already has CMS features (see http://www.businesscatalyst.com/product-tour/overview for more info), but Muse isn't yet able to take advantage of them natively.
In the meantime, others have had success embedding blogs into their Muse sites. Take a look at the Jam Session Dani hosted for more info on this:

Blog Post List - same date posts under one date listing (javascript?)

Hello,
I have six blogs set up for a website. I have the blogs summaries appearing on the home page and in the individual blog index sections.
I would like all blog summaries (with the same date) to appear under one date entry and not repeat the same date for each item. Tech Support says this is possible with javascript (as is most things it seems), but I do not know javascript.
Please see example of Oct 15 on link below
Can anyone help me out with some code or other recommendation for this?

Thanks for your help!

Just checking again to see if anyone has any ideas for my issue with blog post dates.
Thanks in advance for your help!

Blog Post Layout issue

I am creating a blog for a new website. I am currently using the default layouts. When I add a post as a test it shows up perfectly when I use the preview mode. When I check it via the website the blog post list is fine but when you open the blog post page it just the text etc with no CSS. What would be causing this? Is this something I have inadvertently done or is a system issue. I have not had this problem before with BC Blogs. As far as I can see the relevant CSS links etc are on the page.
Any suggestions??
Thanks

Hi Cordie,
Sounds like there's no template assigne to the blog. Make sure you check that http://alexpavelescu.worldsecuresystems.com/Jing/2013-05-29_1520.png

How to add a Facebook send button to blog post

I am not able to get the Facebook Send button to pull the blog post's unique url to share. It pulls the main blog url.
I added the Facebook plugin code to a content holder I created because I cannot find the container.html, so I decided to make my own Facebook module.
Then I pulled the module into my blog post list module. I want the share buttons to appear after each blog post.
What am I missing? What is the tag to pull the specific URL for the post to share it? Do I change the URL in the Facebook code: <div class="fb-share-button" data-href="https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/" data-layout="icon_link"></div> ?
I think this link pulls the button itself from Facebook?
When I call up my module in the blog list it looks like this:
<div id="SocialMediaShare">
{module_contentholder,3272408, url="{tag_blogposturl}"} 
</div>

thanks!

I don't have an answer for you, but I do have a question. You said the FB code works. What did you do? What did you put in your html page? I tried the FB code above and it gives me an ID error. Appreciate it if you can elaborate more. I just posted the ff in the forum "Customizing FB Share in Edge Animate"
Thank you!

Show first paragraph of blog post using liquid

The legacy tag {tag_blogpostbodypreview,Text} allows to have a preview of the blog post. There is no similar possibility in the new liquid markup except for the | truncate filter. But this thing is very dangerous, for if you insert code which tags are then truncated before being closed it can detroy the whole layout of a page. Take a table for
example or an a-tag truncated right in the middle. How can I have only my first paragraph or a short teaser being shown in a blog post list? Any help would be appreciated!
P.S. in the liquid markup there is a | truncatewords filter, but this one seems to not be included to BC liquid yet?
Dennis

That is a bad idea because it will remove any images and formatting that you will want to keep from your content.
Original tags will and do still work in your layouts. If you want the preview of the first paragraph just still use the tag
There are several liquid filters not working in BC, not sure if they will be implemented at the moment. BC have been on the quite front as they have been doing the migration.

Blog post comments not working

Hi there,
I have a couple of sites, both set up with a blog:
http://cyberworkshop.co.nz/blog/video-blog
http://www.sjorakei.school.nz/blog/lorem_ipsum_dolor_3
For some reason when you add a comment to either blog post this message appears:
ERROR: An error occurred. Image verification failed. If you believe this is incorrect, please contact your system administrator or go back and re-submit the form.
I definitely had comments working on the School site at one point and I cant figure out how to correct this.
Any pointers on how to fix this would be most appreciated.
Thanks, Ben

Hi Ben,
For the first site, it looks like captcha is commented out on the Blog Post Detail layout: http://screencasteu.worldsecuresystems.com/Florin/2013-10-20_1259.png
On the second site, you also had a problem in the javascript on the blog post detail layout.
I've corrected the Javascript now, and you get an error message pop-up when trying to submit a comment without filling in the captcha.
Thanks,
Florin

Images Missing in Detail Layout? Please Help!

So for some reason the details section of my web apps will not show images, and I cannot figure out why.
Images were showing up before, but when I imported the items from a spreadsheet, the images went missing! The image files (.jpg) are still in the images folder, and they display correctly on my list layout. Ive tried using my {tag_photo} tag without any HTML, and even deleted the web app and started over, but the problem still persists.
This is the code I used for the details layout:
<table>
    <tbody>
        <tr style="width:1280px;height:442px;">
            <td valign="top">
                <img src="{tag_photo_value}?Action=thumbnail&Width=700&Height=432&algorithm=fill_p roportional">
            </td>
            <td style="font-family:bebas neue;color:#0C3551;font-size:50px;text-align:left;padding:0px 0px 0px 25px;"
            valign="center">
                <p>Product:</p>
                <br>

                <p>Product #:</p>

                <br>
                <p>{tag_make}</p>
                <br>
                <br>
                <p>{tag_horsepower}HP</p>
                <br>
                <br>
                <p>{tag_voltage} Volts</p>
            </td>
        </tr>

                <br>{tag_description}</td>
        </tr>
    </tbody>
</table>

Just for anyone that wants to know the issue:
On import through spreadsheet Arielr190 missed the required / before the image folder for the custom image field. This is needed to tell BC to read from the root.
What was happening was the image path thought it was inside the web app folder, which it was not.
This is now fixed.

SharePoint 2013 Add Author image in default view of blog post

Hi,
How to add Author Image in the Default view of SharePoint 2013 blog site.
Thanks
ram

Hi Ram,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to display author picture in SharePoint blog.
In my test, we can achieve the demand as following steps:
Go to the blog site ->Site Actions -> View All Site Content ->Posts.
In the Posts list, go to List Settings-> click Created By column in the Columns section.
In Additional Column Settings, select
Name (with picture) or Name (with picture and details) for Show field.
