[SOLVED] How can I display the blogs created by different users in one place?

9 years 3 months ago - 9 years 3 months ago #257948 by szoloroz
Hi,

I would like blogs created and published by users to appear in certain categories, based on the blog category (I've changed the music, sport, etc to my needs) and the menu item (of type category blog) with the latest entry on the top.

I have attached a screenshot that can help clarify what I am asking.

For example if users Anita Jump, Heidi Carrot and Matt Bello (they are all fictional) create a Notice (a blog) and they all pick Contract in the dropdown box, write their stuff, make it public, save it and then I click on the Contracts menu item in the main menu, I'd like to see the items in descending chronological order on one page.

How can I achieve this?

Thank you in advance,
Babi

Assuming you're using CB Blogs with Joomla or K2 model you'd just create a Joomla menu item to those content categories. If you're using Internal model then you can't as it has no category view. You can change the model within CB > Plugin Management > CB Blogs > Parameters > Blogs then set "Model" to Joomla. Typically for this you'll want to create a top level Joomla content category to store all your blogs in, which you can select from the "Category" parameter after changing the Model.
