I am trying to allow users to create blogs on my page but i am having trouble figuring out how to allow them to create a title, a description, choose a category and then have everything save when they press the button “Post Blog”
I have figured out how to do it but how do i allow users to create hastags
You can’t do hashtags on input at the moment. It has been requested.
It is possible there is a Blockspring block that would extract them for you.
I ended up using user defined categories in place of hashtags.
I don’t really understand what you mean by user defined categories
So instead of …
Whoa awesome #pizza here.
I had a category called “pizza” that the user could tag the entry with. Not ideal, but it was the best I could do.
@NigelG … your solution to the #problem was to use categories, in the same way that Blogger does, by the looks of it. But how about adding images to the blog. I can see from the Rich Text Input you can add images by URL, but that’s not very user friendly. Did you come up with any other ideas??
I started to look at multi image upload, but struggled, so decided it wasn’t needed for now.
Aha, so you build up text (assume rich text) and images as you go along ?
Yea I originally had a multiline input with a rich text popup to edit the text which looked better, but this was easier.
