Blogs - Questions and Feedback

[LiliMcDonald]

Are you a blog author with questions about the new blogging system? First, we recommend reading the following topic:

• Using Blogs in the NI Community
  

If you're wondering what has changed with the migration, a summary can be found in the post here: Changes to Community Functionality

• Blogs do not exist within user groups. Blogs can be found in their own area of the community.
• Blog post creation is limited to the authors assigned to a blog.
• Blog posts can have pre-defined labels added to act as a type of sub-categorization.
• New blog creation is limited to Community Managers. Requests for a new blog will go through an approval process to ensure that the available blogs will be regularly contributed to by dedicated authors.

You may also want to check the Known Issues with Migration list if you suspect you have encountered a bug.

If your question regarding blogs is not covered above, or if you have any feedback to provide, please post below.

Hi Lili,

Getting used to my new home now,

Is there any chance of getting KUDOS on blog comments, some of my commenters write significantly better responses than my original article and I'd like to offer some reward (not that I really know what Kudos are for, can I cash them in at NIWeek?)

Many thanks for your efforts!

Steve

Hi Steve - we are looking into enabling kudos on blog comments. I'll let you know when we have an update.

[LiliMcDonald]

Update: We should have the kudos button enabled on blog comments in our next release.

[swatts]

sweet! I really appreciate your efforts

[LiliMcDonald]

Update: The kudos button on blog comments is now live.

[swatts]

Woohoo, I'll Kudos you for that!

[swatts]

And as a bonus the old Kudos are saved,

Kudos for EVERYONE!!!!!!

Well done team

Would it be possible to allow attachments on comments of blog posts? It doesn't always make sense to post something on the original blog post and I know if I send something through a PM, someone is going to ask me to send it to them as well years later when it's long lost to the big recycle bin in the cloud.
