How do I get a blog?
If you are a DelphiPlus member, log in to your account and go to http://blogs.delphiforums.com and
click on the blog creation link. Each DelphiPlus member gets one blog as
part of the DelphiPlus package.
How much do blogs cost?
One blog comes free with your DelphiPlus subscription. If you don't have
DelphiPlus, you can subscribe for $4.95 per month (even less if you pay
annually). Find out more about DelphiPlus.
How do I find blogs maintained by other Delphi members?
Check out the Delphi Blogs home
page, where you can search for blogs, see new blog entries, and check
out the Delphi staff's picks of the best new blog entries.
Is there an RSS feed of my blog?
Yes, there's an XML button near the bottom of your blog pages pointing
to the RSS feed of your blog.
Can I edit my blog entries?
Yes.
Can I add images to my blog entries?
Yes. You can upload images as you create your entry, or copy and paste
images from other Web pages (presuming you have permission to do so).
What's my blog address?
It's http://blogs.delphiforums.com/SOMETHING, and the SOMETHING is selected
when you set up your blog. Those familiar with Forums on Delphi know
the SOMETHING as a 'webtag.' You can't select a webtag for a blog that's
already in use by a Forum.
Who can post blog entries?
These are personal blogs, so only the blog owner can post entries.
Can I customize the way my blog looks?
Yes. Delphi blogs include tools that allow you to change the layout of
your blog, decide what content you want to appear, and how blog entries
and comments are displayed. You can choose from more than two dozen blog
themes. You can even personalize the theme you choose with our custom
style controls.
Can I restrict who can see my blog?
You can opt to make your blog private. Doing so means that only those Delphi
members you choose will see your blog.
Can I restrict who can post comments in my blog?
By default, anybody can post comments. You can opt to turn off comments,
or limit them to logged-in Delphi members (with the option of preventing
certain members from posting comments).
Can I review comments before they appear in my blog?
Yes. You can opt to review all comments, or certain comments based on criteria
you choose.
Do Delphi blogs support tags for services like Technorati?
You can add category tags to your posts, and register them with Technorati
manually. You can find out more about Technorati tags here.
I have a question that wasn't answered here, where can
I go for more help?
There is a help section in the blog control center that may have the information
you're looking for. If you're still not finding the information you seek,
go to the DelphiPlus
Members' Forum and post a question in the Delphi Blogs folder.
