Blog CFC

coldfusion (This post is more than 2 years old.)

The source code behind the CFC (well, the meat of it), can now be downloaded here: blog.zip

This zip includes just the CFC, not the admin or the display here - however most of the work is done in the CFC.

If you have any suggestions, comments, or find any bugs, please drop me a line.

Wow...
I have been looking for a ColdFusion based Blog. Thanks for releasing the code Ray. I am trying to learn all about CFC''s, so your code will be a great help to me.

Do you have any further info regarding database structure etc? I suppose I could sort through the code and work it out myself:-)

Any guidance on how to best implement the CFBLOG would be welcome.

Thanks again Ray.

Hilary

The next time I post the code, I''ll post the db schema as well. I also plan on posting the code to the client and admin apps, although it''s kind of ugly. The blog I knew I was going to share, the rest I just threw together. ;)

Pretty good throwing!...

Can you please post a comment when you have updated the code?

Thanks again Ray..

Hi Ray

I am pretty new at this blogging thing and at the point where my imagination is bigger than my skills.
The language is new and the learning curve very steep.
I realy want to post a mpeg video onto my blog but can not seem to figure out how to do it.
I was hoping you could give me some very basic advice and very simple instructions if you have some spare time.

Yolanda: YOu would need to upload the mpeg video to your server. Let's sayou put it in the same folder as your blog. You would then simply make a normal link to it in your blog posting. i.e.: a href="mympeg.mpg". When someone clicks on the link, the browser should hand off the video to the right application on the person's computer.

Ray,

I just installed your blog and started messing around with it. However, I am receiving an error (the same error) whenever i click on any of the RSS feeds. Any suggestions:

XML Parsing Error: not well-formed

Jeff, can you confirm you are running the very latest? Also, can you email me a dump of the RSS? Ie, view the RSS, save as html, and email it to me.
