CB Blogs menu link was created by wolfsauge
Hi,
Is it possible to have a CB Blogs link in the main menu? And how would I do that? Does anybody know?
Best wishes
Dirk

CB Blogs doesn't have or need a menu link. It's completely managed from your profile on the Blogs tab. You can have a tab opened by default by adding &tab=TAB_NAMEorTAB_IDorTAB_CLASS to the CB profile URL.

I am afraid I disagree. I need a blog-page that is visible for all visitors, not just registered users after having logged in.
Still hesitating if I should install Easyblog, but why should I have two different blogs? A simple CB Blog link in the main menu would be perfect and make such considerations obsolete.
Best wishes

CB Blogs stores blogs to the CMS (Joomla) so any link to your Joomla content category that you store blogs to will work fine. You need to be more detailed about what you want to link to.

Thanks for replying.
I created a category weblogs, added a link to the menu and got nowhere (empty page). Then I wrote a testblog, checking again - nothing. The module latest blog however does show it.
Went to the backend checking the configuration: Select the external CMS content section where blogs will be stored as well as blog categories used - looks alright category Weblogs). But the backend's blog administration tells me There currently are no blogs, although the testblog should be there. Very confusing.
Right now clicking the entries in the latest blogs module seems the only way to see the blogs but in order to read them one has to log in.
Is there another solution?
Best wishes
Dirk
