Blogs with Unique Sidebars

Featured Replies

Posted

Is there a way to make each blog have a unique sidebar. I change the sidebar content on one blog and it changes the sidebar for all of the blogs I have!

Unfortunately the sidebar blocks are tied to the template.  So any pages that use the same template will have the same sidebar block: for example, blog listing, blog postings, blog categories, etc.

Hmm, that sucks. Is there a way to make the embedded blog widget for pages look more like the actual blog feed?

Sure, but you would need to develop a custom block template.  This is obviously not available in IPS vanilla.

Alright, well I've edited the entryRow to not truncate at 2 lines to match my blog settings (which I also increased). Text appears just fine but embedded media such as YouTube videos don't come through. Any tips on how to get the full post to come through?

I got it to come through. Apparently, the entryRow function for the embedded blog entry will only grab the first paragraph. I simply combined my blog post within the same <p> </p> and it comes through.
