It will be nice to have custom fields for the blogs, so we can customize it a little more.... and a better way to upload images for moods, and maybe some easy way to let user (and the admin) to customize the templates... like colors, and tables order and that stuff.

I decided to install this into my test site. I have to admit I like it but there is one thing I need it to be able to do that others may not need. I need to be able to be put in a date order. Let me explain and maybe someone can help me find a way around it.

My site is set up for people hiking in the USA on the Appalachian Trail from Georgia to Maine. What the hikers do is send home journals while they are doing their hike for a friend to post. This is usually a six or seven month hike so there could be as many as 300 entris to type in. But sometimes the journals do not come in order. Sometimes they get lost in the mail. So if the person on the end getting the journals is missing the first week of the hike but gets the second weeks journals in the mail and types the whole second weeks hike in the journal on the web site and then the first weeks journals come in the mail at a later date and the person types in the first week journals. Now they are not in the order that they were written in from the trail. So I need a way to make them go in the proper order if some of the journals come at a later date.

Is there a way to make this work for me. If there is then this would be exactly what I can use.

OK I found a new glitch when you post characters like & " " and some others it changes into

& &
" "

Any way to fix this?

Where is this zip file? I downloaded the zip file in this thread from the first post and saw nothing about that.

Assuming OK = Oblivion Knight

This is what he is mentioning: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=326

[attroll]

Yes I found that post and that was what he was refering to.

But this still does not work the way I want. You can only sort by the date that the post was made.

What I am saying is if I start typing a journal for myself and I type one every day of the week, which is Monday through Sunday. If I type the whole week and forget to type Wednesday's journal. Then there is no what to go back and type in Wednesday's journal and have it show up in order.

This is fixed in my Alpha 5 release, which should be available by Monday.

So you're basically requesting a feature whereby you can set the entry date and time?

This can be done..

I think just and entry date would work. That would be awesome. How hard would that be to do?

I do have some other request and suggestions. Should I post them here or send them to you in a PM first?

I'll aim to make it an option for Alpha 5.
