wow, I didn't even see this thread until just now..
> BlogCFM: Has a way to go, but can probably catch up.
Please submit as many feature requests as possible!
These are the reasons why I wrote my own blog app as opposed to using
Ray's or buying Jake's:
- Multiple blogs in a single database / file structure
- I like free =) BlogCFC is free, but BlogFusion is not.
- I wanted more search engine friendly URLS. You know, URL's
that don't contain UUIDs =)
- Integrated HTML editor for posting
- Integrated file manager for uploading images and stuff.
- More security options to prevent comment spam.
(options to requireCAPTCHA for commenting and/or
user registration)
- photo blogs
- support multiple CFML engines *AND* multiple databases.
Like Ray's blog, BlogCFM is also pretty much entirely CFC based, with no
database queries outside of the CFC files.. so you could also build your
own front end.
Now, BlogCFM 1.01 covers pretty much all of those things fully although
automating the multiple-blog functionality will take a little more work.
So I've achieved my goals.
Now I need to make it prettier and a little bit easier. I'm going to
try to entirely remove the need for a coldfusion mapping, which would
make installation a lot easier for most people. I also want to add a
few new features, like disabling commenting on entries after X days,
changing the date of entries, hidden entries (ie, entries that don't
show up on the index but do appear in archives, etc)...
And so on.
BlogCFM is open-source under the BSD license (ie, you can do almost
anything you want with it), and I'm using CFOPEN for project tracking..
bug tracking, feature requests, etc...
