InkType: Call for Features

Yes, but it's something that I don't understand. It's so easy to adapt ANY html template to WP (or drupal, EE, etc.).

@Neovive:

Wordpress has support for file and image uploading out of the box for the back end.

Regarding templates, unfortunately I don't plan to make Wordpress templates compatible with InkType. As Rick says, it's easy... and in my opinion, it's even easier with CI views. InkType will have 5-10 templates to start, and I have a total of 50 that I'll be implementing for the initial production release.

I do, however, have the capability in place to import your Wordpress database (users, categories, posts, comments, etc) into InkType.

@walesmd - Yeah, I didn't really post the core features -- all of which your suggestions were. Anyhow, I've added them to the list above. Thanks!

[quote author="mahuti" date="1196542805"]Word press only supports 1 blog. I'd like to see support for as many blogs as a user wants to create. This basically allows the blog to function as a pseudo CMS. Which is often all most people need.[/quote]

ExpressionEngine is a terrific model, here -- everything is a weblog in EE parlance, which you can adapt to fit your needs. Infinitely flexible.

@D13 Are you following the other thread 'Wishlist'?

[eluser]Developer13[/eluser]
@maadmac Yes, that particular thread gave me the idea to start this one. I was ready to initiate community involvement with InkType and thought this would be a great idea to start.

I made a very quick and dirty Akismet library for my CI app, but I'm not quite sure if it's good enough to be released for public use. If you're interested I could try porting it to PHP 4 (it's coded in 5 now) then releasing it, and you could build upon it for your application.

In any case, good luck on your project!

[eluser]Developer13[/eluser]
Actually if you'd like, just send the code as it is. I can make my way through and backport if needed. Email it to: [email protected].

Thanks!

[eluser]BoltClock[/eluser]
I've sent the library and config file to you. Do check your inbox and let me know if you have anything to say/ask.

@BoltClock - Got it, thanks!

Anybody else care to add to the community feature list?
