Unpack the archive so that index.php3 is in a directory that your web
|
|
server can see, and you preserve the directory structure of the archive.
|
|
Rename dong.conf.default to dong.conf. How's that? Oh, I'm assuming you've
|
|
got PHP working (version 3 is fine, should work with 4) first.
|
|
|
|
Edit the files in mindong/content - these are the blog entries. Read the
|
|
ones that are there first, they form the majority of the documentation right
|
|
now.
|
|
|
|
Edit mindong/sidebar/links - These are the links down the right-hand side
|
|
of the page. Just look at the file. It should be obvious.
|
|
|
|
Now turn your attention to dong.conf - the fields there should be pretty
|
|
obvious. Make your changes.
|
|
|
|
One non-obvious part of dong.conf may be the fields of the <weblog> tag.
|
|
I'm going to have to write a full DTD one day, but for now ...
|
|
|
|
<weblog name="froglog" main="true">
|
|
|
|
"name" and "main" are the only supported fields right now.
|
|
|
|
"name" is a short name for your blog content. This is used as the name of the
|
|
directory to look in for your content. In this case, 'blog entries will be
|
|
searched for in froglog/content, sidebar stuff in froglog/sidebar.
|
|
|
|
"main" indicates that this entry is the default. If you only have one
|
|
<weblog> section, you can safely omit it. If you have multiple <weblog>
|
|
sections, one of them should be nominated as default. If no entries are
|
|
default, the first entry in the file will be used when no specific content
|
|
is requested via the URL.
|
|
|
|
To specify a particular set of content, use the "name" field from the
|
|
<weblog> section in the request URL like so;
|
|
|
|
http://www.grouse.net.au/~mike/index.php3?page=personal
|
|
|
|
The above URL will look for a weblog definition with the name "personal"
|
|
and content directories as subdirectories of a "personal" directory.
|
|
|
|
That's really badly described, isn't it? Play around with it. I don't
|
|
think I've been TOO obscure.
