Wassup peeps and peepettes?!?!
Just wanted to drop in and say hey and ramble a bit.
@Damien50 has rounded up a team of afn peeps to tackle the new blog system and we’ve been lucky enough to have the chance to get involved.
I myself luv the blogs, there’s a lot of neat options that give the creator types out there a bit more control over how everything is recorded and presented.
they can be a bit intimidating tho and that’s been one of the groups missions, help create a guide to get people going with their own blogs if they so desire.
getting started creating organized simple blogs doesn’t have to be complicated at all, tho there are lots of options to explore.
the purpose of this little intro quick start up I want to share is to help other peeps get started creating blogs in an organized, simple fashion.
I don’t go into many details about peripheral options, we just get straight to cranking out blogs.
Check it out if you have the time and inclination, this is about the simplest approach and definitely has helped me keep track of a few different blogs and lots of entries and pages.
as a bonus there should be a link at the end of that intro that leads to the blog we actually created during the guide! So meta, blogception!
Intro to the afn blogs

man, since we are here might as well kick back and start decorating this little space.
I’ll periodically add pages to spruce up this blog entry, I’ll drop in random grow pics, tips and tricks, etc.

I do hope that other peeps will try and enjoy the blogs as much as we do.
I myself prefer them hands down to journals now, the organization options and presentation is just way cooler imo.

teamwork makes the dream work.

Is there any way to change the order of entries? I'd like to move #1 to the top
Blog
Ya know I’m not rightly sure!
The way I use blog entries I’ve never really considered their “order”. Each blog entry is basically its own contained entity and then pages is where I would be more concerned about order.
now I do think there might be an option to “pin” your blog entry, that could put the one you want up top maybe
 
I'm looking at the "entries" as chapters in a book- thus the desire for Chronological order. Worst case I can delete that one then add it in new.
 
I think that’s pribs how they’re intended.
after looking back thru em real quick it looks like there’s no real option to index the Blog series like you can index the Pages.
there is the Pin option and another option to Change Dates on the Blog Entry which might be a workaround as well!

It’s not the answer you’re looking for but I’ll offer up this alternative approach to the entire blog system.
the Blog itself isn’t the book, it’s more like the Library where the books are going to reside.
Blog Entries then become the actual books and Pages are both The chapters and pages of that book.
with the ability to index the pages you can set up some pretty visually neat page layouts.
unfortunately it doesn’t appear that you have the same capability on the Blog level tho.
 
Have you seen the bigger comprehensive blog guide?
there might be something in there that will work as well!
