Blog Categories

[NoName]

Can we turn on the ability to create blog categories? I want to be able to save my daily rants from my gaming blogs.

(I read about blog categories in the FAQ, I should see something about them in the blog control panel but I don't)

How do you even create a blog? I am so lost.

You can also add categories in your blog control panel.

You should have enough posts to see them now. Check up top to the right of the "User CP" link. If it doesn't say "Blogs" try doing a hard refresh in your browser.

Ah ha. Either you just turned it on or I've been blind. I'm leaning towards I was blind, I didn't notice the links on the left change when you're in the blog control panel.

Ah, it took a FireFox crash and restart to get the option to show up. And there has been a blog.

Isn't everyone allowed to post blogs? I seem to lack that option...

To blog: You will need 25 posts.

Blog categories: click on blogs, click on blog control panel, click blog categories. When you make a blog post, check the boxes near the bottom of the page to pick categories.

25 posts seems high to me, at least atm, but maybe this is me just padding my count. ;)

I think that should be put in the FAQ.

It looks like you also need 25 posts to comment on others' Cogblogs.

Cogblogs? They should be called Clogs!

I second this ridiculous idea with a padded post!
