Silverstripe Blog Front End Module
==================================

[](#silverstripe-blog-front-end-module)

Module that adds a front end editing form to the blog module, allowing users who have the correct permissions to write and edit blog posts without logging into the admin interface.

Dependancies
------------

[](#dependancies)

- [SilverStripe Framework 3.1.x](https://github.com/silverstripe/silverstripe-framework)
- [SilverStripe CMS 3.1.x](https://github.com/silverstripe/silverstripe-cms)
- [SilverStripe Blog](https://github.com/silverstripe/silverstripe-blog)
- [Silverstripe Trumbowyg HTMLeditor](https://github.com/i-lateral/silverstripe-trumbowyg-htmleditor)

Via composer
------------

[](#via-composer)

The default way to do this is to use composer. If you are doing this you need to add:

```
"i-lateral/silverstripe-blog-frontend":"*"

```

To your project's composer.json.

At the moment this module is still in heavy development. Once this cycle stabalises we will look into adding stable releases.

From source / manuallly
-----------------------

[](#from-source--manuallly)

You can download this module either direct from the Silverstripe addons directory or Github.

If you do, then follow this process:

- Download a Zip or Tarball of this module
- Extract the module into a directory callled "blog-frontend" in your project
- Run

The management widget
---------------------

[](#the-management-widget)

This module includes a management widget. You will need to install the Widgets module for this to work, but when installed will allow you to add a widget to your sidebar that adds links for creting and editing posts and moderating comments.

Templates
---------

[](#templates)

By default the front end post form uses Page.ss but also supports a "Blog\_post.ss" template (incase you want to customise the page that loads the blog post form).
