*******************************

|
Attaching blog to the home page
|
|
*******************************
|
|
|
|
If you want to attach the blog to the home page you have to adapt settings a bit otherwise the
|
|
"Just slug" permalink will swallow any CMS page you create.
|
|
|
|
To avoid this add the following settings to you project::
|
|
|
|
BLOG_AVAILABLE_PERMALINK_STYLES = (
|
|
('full_date', _('Full date')),
|
|
('short_date', _('Year / Month')),
|
|
('category', _('Category')),
|
|
)
|
|
BLOG_PERMALINK_URLS = {
|
|
'full_date': r'^(?P<year>\d{4})/(?P<month>\d{1,2})/(?P<day>\d{1,2})/(?P<slug>\w[-\w]*)/$',
|
|
'short_date': r'^(?P<year>\d{4})/(?P<month>\d{1,2})/(?P<slug>\w[-\w]*)/$',
|
|
'category': r'^(?P<category>\w[-\w]*)/(?P<slug>\w[-\w]*)/$',
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
Notice that the last permalink type is no longer present.
|
|
|
|
Then, pick any of the three remaining permalink types in the layout section of the apphooks config
|
|
linked ot the home page (see http://yoursite.com/admin/djangocms_blog/blogconfig/).'

Multisite
|
|
*********
|
|
|
|
django CMS blog provides full support for multisite setups.
|
|
|
|
Basic multisite
|
|
===============
|
|
|
|
To enabled basic multisite add ``BLOG_MULTISITE = True`` to the project settings.
|
|
|
|
Each blog post can be assigned to none, one or more sites: if no site is selected, then
|
|
it's visible on all sites. All users with permission on the blog can manage all the blog
|
|
posts, whichever the sites are.
|
|
|
|
Multisite permissions
|
|
=====================
|
|
|
|
Multisite permissions allow to restrict users to only manage the blog posts for the
|
|
sites they are enabled to
|
|
|
|
To implement the multisite permissions API, you must add a ``get_sites`` method on
|
|
the user model which returns a queryset of sites the user is allowed to add posts to.
|
|
|
|
Example::
|
|
|
|
class CustomUser(AbstractUser):
|
|
sites = models.ManyToManyField('sites.Site')
|
|
|
|
def get_sites(self):
|
|
return self.sites
|

django CMS 3.2+ Wizard
|
|
**********************
|
|
|
|
django CMS 3.2+ provides a content creation wizard that allows to quickly created supported
|
|
content types, such as blog posts.
|
|
|
|
For each configured Apphook, a content type is added to the wizard.
|
|
|
|
Some issues with multiple registrations raising django CMS ``AlreadyRegisteredException``
|
|
hae been reported; to handle these cases gracefully, the exception is swallowed
|
|
when Django ``DEBUG == True`` avoiding breaking production websites. In these cases they
|
|
wizard may not show up, but the rest will work as intended.
|
|
|
|
.. _permalinks:
|
|
|
|
***********************
|
|
Configurable permalinks
|
|
***********************
|
|
|
|
Blog comes with four different styles of permalinks styles:
|
|
|
|
* Full date: ``YYYY/MM/DD/SLUG``
|
|
* Year / Month: ``YYYY/MM/SLUG``
|
|
* Category: ``CATEGORY/SLUG``
|
|
* Just slug: ``SLUG``
|
|
|
|
As all the styles are loaded in the urlconf, the latter two does not allow
|
|
to have CMS pages beneath the page the blog is attached to. If you want to
|
|
do this, you have to override the default urlconfs by setting something
|
|
like the following in the project settings::
|
|
|
|
BLOG_PERMALINK_URLS = {
|
|
'full_date': r'^(?P<year>\d{4})/(?P<month>\d{1,2})/(?P<day>\d{1,2})/(?P<slug>\w[-\w]*)/$',
|
|
'short_date': r'^(?P<year>\d{4})/(?P<month>\d{1,2})/(?P<slug>\w[-\w]*)/$',
|
|
'category': r'^post/(?P<category>\w[-\w]*)/(?P<slug>\w[-\w]*)/$',
|
|
'slug': r'^post/(?P<slug>\w[-\w]*)/$',
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
And change ``post/`` with the desired prefix.
|
|
|
|
.. _menu:
|
|
|
|
****
|
|
Menu
|
|
****
|
|
|
|
``djangocms_blog`` provides support for django CMS menu framework.
|
|
|
|
By default all the categories and posts are added to the menu, in a hierarchical structure.
|
|
|
|
It is possibile to configure per Apphook, whether the menu includes post and categories
|
|
(the default), only categories, only posts or no item.
|
|
|
|
If "post and categories" or "only categories" are set, all the posts not associated with a
|
|
category are not added to the menu.
|
|
|
|
.. _templates:
|
|
|
|
*********
|
|
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 base template and
|
|
will ignore the bundled one.
|
|
|
|
*************
|
|
Templates set
|
|
*************
|
|
|
|
By using **Apphook configuration** you can define a different templates set.
|
|
To use this feature provide a directory name in **Template prefix** field in
|
|
the **Apphook configuration** admin (in *Layout* section): it will be the
|
|
root of your custom templates set.
|
|
|
|
****************
|
|
Plugin Templates
|
|
****************
|
|
|
|
Plugin templates live in the ``plugins`` folder of the folder specified by the **Template prefix**,
|
|
or by default ``djangocms_blog``.
|
|
|
|
By defining the setting ``BLOG_PLUGIN_TEMPLATE_FOLDERS`` you can allow multiple sets of
|
|
plugin templates allowing for different views per plugin instance. You could, for example,
|
|
have a plugin displaying latest posts as a list, a table or in masonry style.
|
|
|
|
To use this feature define ``BLOG_PLUGIN_TEMPLATE_FOLDERS`` as a list of available templates.
|
|
Each item of this list itself is a list of the form ``('[folder_name]', '[verbose name]')``.
|
|
|
|
Example:::
|
|
|
|
BLOG_PLUGIN_TEMPLATE_FOLDERS = (
|
|
('plugins', _('Default template')), # reads from templates/djangocms_blog/plugins/
|
|
('timeline', _('Vertical timeline')), # reads from templates/djangocms_blog/vertical/
|
|
('masonry', _('Masonry style')), # reads from templates/djangocms_blog/masonry/
|
|
)
|
|
|
|
Once defined, the plugin admin interface will allow content managers to select which template the plugin will use.
|
|
|
|
.. _sitemap:
|
|
|
|
*******
|
|
Sitemap
|
|
*******
|
|
|
|
``djangocms_blog`` provides a sitemap for improved SEO indexing.
|
|
Sitemap returns all the published posts in all the languages each post is available.
|
|
|
|
The changefreq and priority is configurable per-apphook (see ``BLOG_SITEMAP_*`` in
|
|
`Global settings <settings>`_).
|
|
|
|
To add the blog Sitemap, add the following code to the project ``urls.py``::
|
|
|
|
|
|
from cms.sitemaps import CMSSitemap
|
|
from djangocms_blog.sitemaps import BlogSitemap
|
|
|
|
|
|
urlpatterns = patterns(
|
|
'',
|
|
...
|
|
url(r'^sitemap\.xml$', 'django.contrib.sitemaps.views.sitemap',
|
|
{'sitemaps': {
|
|
'cmspages': CMSSitemap, 'blog': BlogSitemap,
|
|
}
|
|
}),
|
|
)
