Hi Michael Thanks for the response. I now realise that I didn't explain it very well :-) so will try again.
A standard Roller blog entry looks like this https://blogs.apache.org/maven/entry/apache-maven-3-8-5 It's plain text etc and the Roller interface allows you to simply write it, preview it and post it. My question is how can Cloudstack create a Roller blog that looks like this https://blogs.apache.org/cloudstack/entry/meet-the-community-slavka-peleva It's not plain text at all. And the reason I asking the question is that Cassandra doesn't currently have Roller blog but they have been publishing regular blog updates on their website. Since they are so active it could be good for their blog entries to be incorporated into the overall Apache ones. If a Roller blog was created for Cassandra could we create entries that point to the existing blog entries on the website. For example https://cassandra.apache.org/_/blog/Inside-Cassandra-an-interview-with-Project-Contributor-Lorina-Poland.html Perhaps it has nothing to do with re-direction and I hope my question is clearer this time around :-) Thanks Sharan On 2022/03/27 20:14:46 Michael Bien wrote: > Hi Sharan, > > On 26.03.22 16:24, sharanf wrote: > > Hi > > > > I have a question. > > Is it possible to have a blog setup on blogs.apache.org but have the > > entries redirected to the blog entries that have been already > > published on the project website? > > I am not quite sure if I understand the question.
