Blog

If you want to maintain an online diary on your site, or regularly
publish articles on a subject and automatically present them in a
chronological order, then you need a blog.

A blog module can be added only to the first-level pages that do not
have subpages. Within blog posts, you can use text, images, embedded
videos and scripts. Each blog post can have its distinctive page
description and meta information to be used by search engines. Note that
blog posts are not listed on the Pages tab.

To let your visitors comment on your blog posts, you need to register
with Disqus, a free third-party service that provides commenting
functions for your sites and keeps all comments.

To add a blog to your webpage:

1. Go to the Modules tab, select Blog, and drag the module to
   the page.
2. In the module properties, specify the following:
   • Number of blog posts to show on the page.
   • Specify whether the site visitors will be able to leave their
     comments.
3. Click OK.
4. To enable commenting, click the link Click here to add each new
   blog post.
5. Click within the gray information box at the bottom of the blank blog
   post.
6. To register with Disqus, click the Register button. A
   registration form will open in a new browser window or tab.
7. Specify the following:
   • Your site’s URL, desired name and shortname (unique ID). You will
     need to specify this site ID (shortname) later in the Blog module
     settings to enable commenting.
   • Comment moderator’s username, password, and email address. A
     confirmation message will be sent to this email address, so be
     sure that it is valid.
8. Click Continue.
9. Specify your language and other settings, and click Continue.
10. On the last step of the registration form, no further action is
    required. Just log out of the Disqus site.
11. Check your email inbox for the confirmation message from Disqus. In
    this message, click the link to verify your address.
12. Return to the browser window where you have the Presence Builder
    editor with the Blog module properties opened.
13. In the box titled Apply here the website ID (shortname) received
    during registration, type or paste the site ID that you specified
    during registration with Disqus in step 7.
14. Click Apply.
15. Click OK.

Now your blog can accept comments from visitors, and you can make the
first post.
