Hello Everyone,

After much anticipation, hard work and dedication (from this extraordinary team of professionals) I am pleased to announce that we are "code-complete" and that the Blog module was submitted to the release tracker just moments ago.

I would also like to take a few moments to thank each and every team member without whom this would not have been such a memorable release:

  • Don Worthley
  • Dario Rossa
  • Rip Rowan
  • Jim Bonnie
  • Eoghan O'Neill

We will now take a short but needed break, as we ponder over the next release. which among other things will entail a complete re-write with the promise to make the Blog module the best ever DNN module yet!

Please refer to the release notes below for a list of new features and bug fixes, and do not forget to visit http://support.dotnetnuke.com to report any issues, or submit request for new features:

Antonio since you are rewriting and you have Jim Bonnie on your team, (hes on mine too) you reckon I could convince your team and train them how to do the rewrite using my TDD template? Id really like to see all of teh modules rewritten with a full suite of unit tests and automation tests. Jim is writing the automation tests for the help module.

Many thanks to the blog team. I'm definitely looking forward to the SEO enhancements as that's one area that DNN's core blog module has been very weak. Thanks for all the hard work and congrats on getting code complete.

Hi, I am making a comparison of features between blog tools. Unfortunately, I cannot find a list of features for this blog module? Have I overlooked a page?
Thanks

@salturki 3.5 has not been release yet... it is in the tracker and will be released when all tests have passed. It should not be long now.

By AntonioChagoury on   8/14/2008 9:58 AM

Re: Blog 03.05.00 in Release Tracker... we're close can you taste it?

@blondie63 You should be able to get the recent entries rss by using 0 as the RSSID

Re: Blog 03.05.00 in Release Tracker... we're close can you taste it?

@nblakley We do not have a full list of features at the moment, but it would good get that compiled. If you ever get around to it, would you share it with us? We will pill publish it here.

Thanks!

Re: Blog 03.05.00 in Release Tracker... we're close can you taste it?

What happened?!!

I see it failed because of "other" issues but can you get us a blog update on either why or an estimate of when the new update may be available?

Thanks

Re: Blog 03.05.00 in Release Tracker... we're close can you taste it?

I would love to try out RC 3.5 on my staging server. Where can we download it?

Re: Blog 03.05.00 in Release Tracker... we're close can you taste it?

@subodh: Yep, you're the first! ... and as you can see we are dogfooding the module on DNN, which is a good sign ;)

Update for anyone using the iFinity Friendly URL Provider - individual blog entry URLs don't work with it (although I love the SEO-friendly URLs, and MetaWebLog functionality!! Big thumbs up).
