Insert blog post by blogpost id

Hi everyone,
I'm using the following BC module tag to insert the latest blog post into an html element and have limited the output to 1:
{module_blogsitepost,1,}
This only allows for the latest post but I want to specify exactly which blog post I want to insert, ie. by its blog post id.
Can anyone tell me if it's possible to do this either with the above module tag or with another one?
Really appreciate any help.

While putting CSS into the body tag seems to work without issue I would prefer to put it into the head in its proper place.
I am using this Javascript to do that:
var ele = document.createElement("style");
ele.type = "text/css";
ele.innerHTML = "CSS CODE"; // Replace with CSS code.
document.head.appendChild(ele);
It works in all but IE8 and below (go figure). For IE8 I just left it in the body using IE conditional comments.
Now if only we could come up with a bit of sorcery for the meta tags!

I could not agree more. While I can see restricting this to some level there is much more I wish we could have access to and edit.
Thanks for the Wizardly advice. =>

Change color of blog post title

Hello, I'm trying to change the color of the post title (REGLAS DE ACENTUACIÓN. Palabras agudas), but not working.
Here is the link:
http://ivink.com/confundidos-entre-letras
And here is the code that I have insert:
.blog-post h2.post-title {
color: #CC0000;
font-size: 22px;
font-weight: bold;
font-family: droid-sans, sans-serif;
line-height: 1.2;
Title is not getting the red color.
Thanks very much for any help.

You should always use inspect tools like firebug or the inbuilt ones in browsers. You would see the titles have an anchor inside which has its style.
Change that to - .post-title > a

Hello,
There is 2 ways to insert an image:
1. You can select the picture icon on the tool bar
and then the foolowing screen will allow you to upload your picture from your computer:
2. You can also drug and drop the image directly from your computer to the text, this is the way I use.
Hope it is helpful,

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:

How to insert a "Recent Blog Posts" section on your website.

I constantly see on other websites a section of "Recent Blog Posts". And this is not just limited to blog hosting sites (like wordpress and blogger). Check out this picture:
http://www.premiumwptools.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/BVD-Wordpress-Theme.jpg
At the bottom of the page there is a section that says: "Latest Blog Entries". How do I get this on my home page? Do I do this in Dreamweaver, or is it something I add later when I actually host the site?

Check out the URL of the picture you referenced:
premiumwptools.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/BVD-Wordpress -Theme.jpg
premiumwptools = premium Wordpress tools
wp-content = Wordpress content
Wordpress-Theme = Wordpress Theme
Three hints in the URL suggest that you can achieve the function by using wordpress. To do it outside of wordpress you simply edit latest blogs manually if static or use server side scripting language with database if dynamic.
best,
Shocker

How to change the blog posts view when navigating through categories?

Hello, currently I've been struggling for a while with the following problem:
In my SharePoint blog site I have the following default view of posts:
http://s16.postimg.org/yvmu0j51x/Default_site.jpg
When I click on a category, I get the following view of posts:
http://s29.postimg.org/58lm8p993/Category_site.jpg
Is there any possibility to get the same way of showing post as how it looks on the default site? So with Image, with body etc. But then only filtered based on category.
Any help would be highly appreciated!
Regards,
Danny

Hi Danny,
No, my result is like:
You can do as the followings:
Edit the page
Insert the Categories list into the page
Insert the Posts list into the page
Edit the Posts web part, and switch the current view to Summary view, click OK
Click Connections->Get Filter Values from->Categories, like the screenshot below:
Provide Field Name:Title, Consumer Field Name: Category
Click Finish
Then you can filter posts based on a category by clicking Select in the first screenshot.
I hope this helps.
Thanks,
Wendy

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.

Changing the Order of Blog Post

Is there a way to have the latest blog entries appear at the top of the blog instead of the bottom?
Thanks!

Cyclosaurus posted a html snippet that you can insert in your iweb page (insert-->widget-->html snippet). The snippet is in this tread but it didn't work for me:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=7602984&#7602984
There are at least a half dozen posts on this very thing and you would think changing the order of a blog post from chronological to reverse chronological would be easy, but apparently not.
Anyone else have any ideas?

Blog Post HEAD Content

I have posted and submitted support request about this issue before but when will we be able to insert content into the head tag of a blog post?
While majority of the time this is not an issue there are times when this is necessary.
Here is an example:
     <style type="text/css">
      .slideshow img { display: none }
      .slideshow img.first { display: block }
     </style>
The above code may or may not work inside a body tag it is invalid code. I can use inline styles but this is not always desirable.
Here is another example that will never work in the body tag:
<meta property="og:title" content="Title Text" />
<meta property="og:type" content="article" />
<meta property="og:url" content="URL Link" />
<meta property="og:image" content="Image Path" />
<meta property="og:image:type" content="image/jpeg" />
<meta property="og:image:width" content="620" />
<meta property="og:image:height" content="541" />
<meta property="og:site_name" content="My Site Name" />
I have asked support about this two separate times, the first response was this:
We have confirmed it is an issue, and have created a ticket with our development team to investigate and resolve this.
The ticket number is 3014970 for your reference.
We will let you know once this issue has been resolved.
Then I asked again several months later thinking I may have missed an update etc. and this was the response:
Currently the only META that can be added to a blog is by creating a separate template that you will apply only to that blog (from Blog Details tab), that will apply to the whole blog and not to individual blog posts.
So creating the structure as:
<html>
<head><title></title>
...meta data tags...
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html> will not work, as you already concluded, because the <head></head> section you put in the blog post will be rendered in the body.
We have logged an issue for this with our development team to investigate and resolve.
The ticket number is #bug=3014970 for your reference.
Unfortunately I cannot provide you a clear ETA here on when this will be fixed, however what I suggest here is to keep an eye on our blog http://businesscatalyst.com/_blog/bc_blog – that’s where the releases and the planned work is being announced.
While I do not know what it takes to add this functionality to the system and I make this following comment with that in mind it seems like this should be a necessary feature to implement into BC.
Is there any ETA on this issue?
Note: Creating a template for every blog post does not work. This would mean creating a template and a new blog for every post.

While putting CSS into the body tag seems to work without issue I would prefer to put it into the head in its proper place.
I am using this Javascript to do that:
var ele = document.createElement("style");
ele.type = "text/css";
ele.innerHTML = "CSS CODE"; // Replace with CSS code.
document.head.appendChild(ele);

Wrapping text around an image in a blog post

Hi,
I want my client to have the choice to wrap text around an image they have inserted into a blog post. How is this possible? I have tried to create a class that would would appear in the 'apply a class' section of the editor but it doesnt work, the class doesnt even appear in the editor.
Any advice?
Thanks,
Dean

Hi Liam.
Thanks for the reply. Yes I have added it in the partner portal and it just says clear class.
I have only added a small bit of css so I dont think that is the problem. I just the below applied to the image so the text will float round it.
.wraptext {
float:left;
I think the problem is that it is in the wrong css file. I have tried it on few different css files and it does the appear in the editor for some of the webpages. No matter what css file I put it in, it still doesnt appear as an option when adding a blog post.
The blog post is referencing a few stylesheets, how can I identify which one the code should be in?

How to post multiple images in one blog post using iweb

Hi
I would like to post multiple images in a single blog post. When ever I add a second or third image in the "entry" section of iweb, it does not show up in the blog post on the homepage of the blog. does anyone know if it is even possible to have multiple, separate images in one post, and if so, how.
Here is a link to my blog: http://www.hoopography.com. You can see how there is only one image. I I want to talk about multiple items, I need to create an image in Pages and put them all together. I would really like to break out of the one box (placeholder) mold. I feel so constrained in iweb right now. I think I have done a lot with my blog, but I am always looking to learn more about iweb and improve my blog. Thanks for any help!!!

what's the url of your blog? I'd like to check it out. I'm always interested in learning more about iWeb to improve my blogs. Mine are: http://www.hoopography.com and http://www.wnysportscards.com

How do I link to a .pdf file in a blog post?

I have a created a new blog post and want to link to a .pdf file. I have the file loaded to the file manager but when I click on the link icon in the editor the only files that show up are web pages.
Is there a way to link to a file other than setting up the link other than writing the HTML by hand?

I totally agree with you on the confusion of that form for the literature module. Even after I have used it a lot I still find myself trying to upload the file at the same time. As you say - it only makes sense. But you'll get used to it. ;-)
As far as the module way of doing it instead of coding it in, there is so much more flexibility this way. In your example you have one document which isn't bad ... but what if you had to list 100 documents in your page that are located in several different locations on the server? Now it's a simple task of adding one tag and your done.
Other advantages:
1: Your documents can be found in the site search
2: Recods and displays file type and size to the viewer so they can choose to download it or not.
There is more but after years of the individual code way, I so love this Literature Module and the flexibility it gives.

Blog post : "Bug in Create/Edit View Criteria Wizard (JDeveloper 11g)"

hi
Using steps 1 to 13 from the blog post "Bug in Create/Edit View Criteria Wizard (JDeveloper 11g)" by Andrejus Baranovskis, I have been able to reproduce the issue he describes.
see http://andrejusb.blogspot.com/2008/12/bug-in-createedit-view-criteria-wizard.html
I the blog post comments he writes "... there was no time for me to fill bug in Metalink ...".
Maybe someone from Oracle can pick it up from this forum post and file it as a bug if it is one (and if possible post the bug number here).
many thanks
Jan Vervecken

The mechanism is to create a reproduceable test case, create a Service Request in metalink.oracle.com, post the test case, and convince the analyst to file it as a bug.
It may be not efficient at some time, but this the way it is handled.

Customize blog post display in Share Point 2013 in Cloud

Hi,
I am trying to modify look of the blog post (single post entry), but running into issues.
This is the full scenario I am trying to accomplish:
I have custom content type that extends post with few fields that I need in order to pull specific post entries on different pages(this is not an issue).
I have Yes/No field for post in the blog to allow or disallow comments.
If the check box is set to No I don't want to display anything that would have to do with the comments.
Idea is to use overrideCtx but in order to be able to check the value of the Yes/No column I need to add it to the Current View, this is where the problem starts.
Any time I modify the current view and add a field the title and body of the post entry are no longer displayed on the page and there is no way for me to change it back.
Anybody has any ideas why is this happening, or was trying to do something simillar?
Thanks
Brano

Unfortunately the javascript (example above) didn't work for me.
What I end up doing is (separate js so the code can be changed and reused for multiple blog sites) and reference it in the Content Editor:
(function () {
var overrideCtx = {};
overrideCtx.Templates = {};
overrideCtx.Templates.Fields = {'Body':{'View': CBody}};
SPClientTemplates.TemplateManager.RegisterTemplateOverrides(overrideCtx);
function CBody(ctx) {
var items = ctx.CurrentItem;
var ret = ctx.CurrentItem.Body;
if(ctx.CurrentItem['AllowPost'] == 'Yes'){
_spBodyOnLoadFunctionNames.push("hideComments");
return ret;
function hideComments(){
//look for elements with specific IDs and Classes to hide
I am wondering if there is shorter way so I don't have to call _spBodyOnLoad so it doesn't add too much overhead
If anyone know better way let me know?
Thanks
Brano
