Okay, against my better judgment I upgraded the blog after my 4.5.5 upgrade (which went pretty good; thanks for all the info in the forums, John). Now I have a few minor issues that I am too drained to search (I won't get up on my soapbox about the DNN search tonight; ibid), to post in the forums, and wait for replies. Therefore, I was wondering if you guys actually use the blog for projects or use a 3rd party solution? I did try Scott's news articles, but there are a few little stylistic things I can't change (like people have to click on the article to view standalone before they can rate the post, though the post doesn't consume more that the details will hold, etc). I'm still playing with it, as I think it's way more powerful and has some sweet features, but just wondering what the industry standard is nowadays. :) I still think this is one big open beta test and a conspiracy to get me to buy 3rd party modules, which I am now doing at the drop of a proverbial dime the next time something bundled with the core breaks. Blogs acting funny after the upgrade? Gone. I am too drained. :) Forums acting up? Gone. :) I guess the old adage still holds. |
