Journal (Community Blog)
 

Ryangel's Journal hack is in need of porting/improving for vB3.

Please check with admin of .org before attempting this to see if this public permission will suffice as Ryangel is hard to contact.

Currently, no one (that I am aware of) is working on this. Kurafire is developing a Journal System totally separate from this...not a port of this hack.
There have been a couple of attempts but either the person has decided to keep their coding for their own purposes...or else their hack just didn't work.

Should anyone decide to attempt this, there is a hack posted at evB that might provide a head-start on it. The hack does not work...but it comes darn close to it!

======
UPDATE: 3/31/04 This hack still needs to be ported...as Gary has decided to join forces with Kurafire in developing a system totally apart from this original hack.
======

So, once again, is anyone willing to attempt to port this hack from vB2?
Thanks!

Sounds interesting I might give this a go; I'll reply back if I have something going :)

Sweet! Thanks for your potential interest.

Anyone else?

If this hack could be made to allow different types of journals to exist on the same board, then you can get kind of "blown away" by the potential!

The same user could keep a journal about "my life in Idaho" and "my experiments with Polymonial Doomerflitchies" and "my short stories" or more commercial applications like "news from the head honcho" or "field reports from our top sales people"...

Some hacks accomplish small but important things...this hack seems limited only by the admin's imagination!

Shinra employees released the vB3 port for this over at EvB is that helps.

What's the link to thread? I don't see it.

Yep I'm already there just didn't know that was Shinra.

I'm just wondering if you could make a blog hack like people can customize their page, change the header, etc with their images etc etc... is that possible?

So its like users have their own blog without forums' interface (header and footer), just like php Blog software (for example: b2/pLog) out there, only its integrated with vbulletin and each users can get their costumized blogs.

Is that possible...? Thanks

It was done and released for vB2. Ask Shinra if he'll port it - he seems like a very helpful and determined guy.

Yep Shinra already released one at EvB but it's really broken, doesn't work too well yet. I was fixing it up, then talked to Kura and how it stands now is that me and Kura are currently developing the EvB JS (EverythingvB Journal System.)
