Very basic blogging is possible in Wagn as is (see Common Wagn patterns and improve basic blogging), but it could be much, much better. Here is some early exploration of that:

Blog entries:

any card (of any type) can be a blog entry

card name is title of entry

{ {+blogged to} } (Pointer checkboxes to blogs i have edit permission for), *options={"type":"blog"} (permissions just works?)

Want a one-click thing in sidebar/footer "Blog to: { {_main+blogged to|view:checkboxes} }" ? (_main is page's main card))



Blogs:

there's a blog Cardtype

Card name is title of blog


View mode:

main column:
search for X recently created cards w { {+blogged to} } this blog
|items:summary
page icons are permalinks
date/time created/posted visible - in card footer? card name hover?
comments (if allowed)

in page sidebar or footer:

Link/button to add new entry
(just an included +new blog entry card? Basic w link/URL that creates relative cards?)

Link to earlier entries (human-readable URL)

+blogroll

??


Edit mode:

How many items for front page

Allow comments? (if yes, can create/add to +discussion by each entry - not just yes, but usual permissions menu?)

Use created or modified date? (in latter case, don't include automated page name updates?)

(Look at WordPress; RSS for other likely stuff)

====

Features wanted for it (tag blogging):
generate feeds

(add pinging)
implement summary inclusion view
HTML from +cards (+taglist items -> Technorati tags)
card-specific sidebar/footer
URLs that not only create new cards but relative cards from them
_main refers to page's main card

============

Issues:

If i blog a card to a blog i have create permission on, then lose that permission, can i still edit the card later?
