Feature Request

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. For large blog systems (> 100 blog posts) treating each blog post as a separate page in the page tree can become cumbersome.

Describe the solution you'd like It would be great if adding, editing and deleting blog posts could be done using the blog module. Additionally we could also add Tags, Categories and Authors to the blog module (add, edit and delete).

Describe alternatives you've considered Using typo3-blogmaster which does not seem to be maintained anymore.

It would be great if we managed the blog posts exclusively through the list module. We have the great "Hide child pages in page tree" feature. Now all you need is a button called "Display blog post" next to "Edit record" and "View webpage". What do you think?

The feature "Hide child pages in page tree" could definitely be useful! I would however prefer editing the blog post in the page view instead of the list view. Because it is closer to what is displayed in the frontend and more convenient for nested and complicated structures (e.g. gridelements, drag and drop).

For me adding and editing a new blog post should direct you to the page view and there should be a button to get back to the posts view of the blog module.

I think you misunderstood: "Display (or Edit) blog post" could be a link in the list module to the page view. How you create blog articles is up to you anyway.

Ah sure, that would be great!

Ah sure, that would be great!

I have now created a small extension that adds a "Page Content" item to the context menu. So if you use "Hide child pages in page tree", you can manage the posts completely in the list view. Now it would be nice if we expand the recordlist accordingly (it was easier for the context menu at first). https://github.com/cogtail/context_items
