.. warning:: Starting from version 0.3 the length of the meta_description and
|
|
meta_title fields has been changed according to the most common
|
|
defaults for search engines. Existing data will not be affected,
|
|
but widgets that enforce the length for new data is now being used.
|
|
|
|
.. warning:: Starting from 0.3 BlogLatestEntriesPlugin and BlogAuthorPostsPlugin
|
|
the plugin API has changed: ``BlogLatestEntriesPlugin.get_posts``,
|
|
``BlogAuthorPostsPlugin.get_authors`` requires the ``request``
|
|
argument. Templates has been changed to use a context variable
|
|
instead. Please update your plugin templates accordingly.
|
|
|
|
.. warning:: To ease migration to version 0.3, djangocms-blog depends on south
|
|
even on Django 1.7; while this is unnecessary for Dajngo 1.7, it
|
|
makes transition to version 0.3 painless. Hard dependency will be
|
|
removed in 0.5.
|
|
|
|
|
|

Quick hint
|
|
++++++++++
|
|
|
|
The following are minimal defaults to get the blog running; they may not be
|
|
suited for your deployment.
|
|
|
|
* Add the following settings to your project::
|
|
|
|
SOUTH_MIGRATION_MODULES = {
|
|
'easy_thumbnails': 'easy_thumbnails.south_migrations',
|
|
'taggit': 'taggit.south_migrations',
|
|
}
|
|
THUMBNAIL_PROCESSORS = (
|
|
'easy_thumbnails.processors.colorspace',
|
|
'easy_thumbnails.processors.autocrop',
|
|
'filer.thumbnail_processors.scale_and_crop_with_subject_location',
|
|
'easy_thumbnails.processors.filters',
|
|
)
|
|
META_SITE_PROTOCOL = 'http'
|
|
META_USE_SITES = True
|
|
|
|
* If you are using Django 1.7, be aware than ``filer`` < 0.9.10, ``cmsplugin_filer``
|
|
and ``django-cms`` < 3.1 currently requires you to setup ``MIGRATION_MODULES`` in settings::
|
|
|
|
MIGRATION_MODULES = {
|
|
'cms': 'cms.migrations_django', # only for django CMS 3.0
|
|
'menus': 'menus.migrations_django', # only for django CMS 3.0
|
|
'filer': 'filer.migrations_django', # only for django filer 0.9.9 and below
|
|
'cmsplugin_filer_image': 'cmsplugin_filer_image.migrations_django',
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
Please check
|
|
`django CMS installation <http://django-cms.readthedocs.org/en/support-3.0.x/how_to/integrate.html#installing-and-configuring-django-cms-in-your-django-project>`_,
|
|
`cmsplugin-filer README <https://github.com/stefanfoulis/cmsplugin-filer#installation>`_
|
|
for detailed information.
|
|
|
|
* Configure parler according to your languages::
|
|
|
|
PARLER_LANGUAGES = {
|
|
1: (
|
|
{'code': 'en',},
|
|
{'code': 'it',},
|
|
{'code': 'fr',},
|
|
),
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
* Add the following to your ``urls.py``::
|
|
|
|
url(r'^taggit_autosuggest/', include('taggit_autosuggest.urls')),
|
|
|
|
* To start your blog you need to use `AppHooks from django CMS <http://django-cms.readthedocs.org/en/support-3.0.x/how_to/apphooks.html>`_
|
|
to add the blog to a django CMS page:
|
|
|
|
* Create a new django CMS page
|
|
* Go to Advanced settings and select Blog from the Application selector;
|
|
* Eventually customise the Application instance name;
|
|
* Restart the project instance to properly load blog urls.
|
|
|
|
* Add and edit blog by creating them in the admin or using the toolbar,
|
|
and the use the `django CMS frontend editor <http://django-cms.readthedocs.org/en/support-3.0.x/user/reference/page_admin.html#the-interface>`_
|
|
to edit the blog content:
|
|
|
|
* Create a new blog entry in django admin backend or from the toolbar
|
|
* Click on "view on site" button to view the post detail page
|
|
* Edit the post via djangocms frontend by adding / editing plugins
|
|
* Publish the blog post by flagging the "Publish" switch in the blog post admin
|
|
|
|
Templates
|
|
+++++++++
|
|
|
|
To ease the template customisations a ``djangocms_blog/base.html`` template is used by all the blog templates;
|
|
the templates itself extends a ``base.html`` template; content is pulled in the ``content`` block.
|
|
If you need to define a different base template, or if your base template does not defines a ``content`` block,
|
|
copy in your template directory ``djangocms_blog/base.html`` and customise it according to your
|
|
needs; the other application templates will use the newly created template and will ignore the bundled one.
|
|
|
