steerCMSBlogPlugin

A relatively simple blogging plugin at its core, the steerCMSBlogPlugin comes with a number of features added from other plugins.

Some key points:

More than one blog can be maintained, and is represented by an steerCMSBlogInstance object.
Each steerCMSBlogPost object is attached to a single steerCMSBlogInstance object.
Both steerCMSBlogInstance and steerCMSBlogPost objects are i18n.
and... on the topic of i18n, culture is automatically set when either of these objects are instantiated - see the __construct() methods

Extended Features

By default, base steerCMSBlogPlugin is extended by the following plugins:

Search on steerCMSBlogPost objects by steerCMSSearchPlugin - from which columns title, excerpt and body are scanned.
Tagging on steerCMSBlogPost objects by sfPropelActAsTaggableBehaviorPlugin
RSS and Atom feeds by sfFeed2Plugin
Comments on steerCMSBlogPost objects by steerCMSCommentPlugin
Cache Contracts by steerCMSCachedBehaviorPlugin
Properties by steerCMSPropertiesBehaviorPlugin
Versioning by sfPropelVersionableBehaviorPlugin

Three modules make up this plugin: steerCMSBlogPost, steerCMSBlogInstance and Fontend - all fairly self explanatory.

This plugin adds its own routing rules via its config/config.php file. These include (in order):

@steerCMSBlog_base_feed → /:feed/news/:instance
@steerCMSBlog_base → /news/:instance
@steerCMSBlog_pagination → /news/:instance/page/:page
@steerCMSBlog_archive_year → /news/:instance/:year
@steerCMSBlog_archive_month → /news/:instance/:year/:month
@steerCMSBlog_archive_day → /news/:instance/:year/:month/:day
@steerCMSBlog_post_permalink_feed → /:feed/news/:instance/:year/:month/:day/:slug
@steerCMSBlog_post_permalink → /news/:instance/:year/:month/:day/:slug
