Hello Everyone,
We've been a little silent lately, but I assure you, a LOT has been going on.
First of all, we have been "recruiting" like crazy, and we have put together an awesome team that I am proud to be part of, more on this on another blog entry.
We have also been busy wrapping up development of the next version of the Blog module (3.4.1). I know I have said this before, but I mean it this time when I say that this will be last version of the current Blog module. We will be re-writing the entire thing from scratch as soon as this is released, but meanwhile we wanted to get some of the most pressing features included with this release.
This blog entry is the first one of a series of entries that I will be posting to talk about the new stuff that you will find in 3.4.1.
We finally added social bookmarks! To enable social bookmarks on your blogs, simply go to the "Module Options" screen and enable the social bookmarks. Once you have done this you will not the social bookmarks appear at the bottom of your blog entries (as show in the screen capture below).
There currently is no control over "which" bookmarks to display. We have left this admin feature out of this release but will be included in the new and improved version of the blog module.
The supported bookmarks sites are as follows:
- Del.icio.us
- Facebook (Share function)
- Digg
- Google
- Live
- Newsvine
- StumbleUpon
- Technorati
- Yahoo
- DotNetKick (For the geeks amongst us)
As usual, please let me know your thoughts and make sure to enter your suggestions for improving this feature at http://support.dotnetnuke.com
