Which version to install

fitogo...@gmail.com (Fito) — Fri, 13 Nov 2009 15:31:44 UT

Hello,

I was just wondering which version or branch I should install for a
new project I am starting. The reason I ask is that there seems to
have been some activity from different collaborators (looking at the
project in Github) since the 0.8.2 release and I would like to start
with the most up-to-date version available. Another thing is that I

site setup found here

I have a need now to strip out one blog from this setup, and set it up

Hi Semantosoph,

Sections and Pagination in Mephisto 0.8.2

sven.windi...@gmail.com (semantosoph) — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 23:11:01 UT

Hei.

There was some discussion on getting pagination to work in blogs with
multiple sections. I found a rather easy solution for that. First, use
the original [1] article to set pagination up properly. Afterwards,
look at the description and apply my little patch [2].

Re: mephisto xmlrpc plugin for mephisto 0.8.2

Awesome! I thought about updating the old xmlrpc plugin a while back
to get it working. I'm glad you put in the time. Also, somebody
should notify the Blogo guys ([link]).
They were wanting to get their blog editor working with Mephisto about
a year ago - but the xmlrpc was broken.

archive mod to skip months without posts

skan.gryp...@gmail.com (M Graff) — Mon, 19 Oct 2009 23:08:29 UT

I've added a new feature others might be interested in using.

I tend to be very hit-or-miss when I post to my blog. Unfortunately,
this means some months actually go by without a single post. Even
many months in a row.

Re: mephisto + community engine?

flesh...@gmail.com (craayzie) — Wed, 14 Oct 2009 00:35:13 UT

Thanks Bryan, I'm not clear if lovd supports a multi-domain/site
configuration i.e. user1.domain.com, user2.domain.com etc. What about
using Tog for the social networking features but Mephisto as the
core? Any other suggestions?

Thanks again.

Re: mephisto + community engine?

flesh...@gmail.com (craayzie) — Mon, 12 Oct 2009 22:02:48 UT

Thanks Bryan - I don't believe lovedbyless can support a multi-site
configuration where anyone can create their own social network/blog.
Does Mephisto's multi-site configuration function as a blog host where
anyone can create their own blog through it?

Thanks,
Fima

Mephisto mulit-site serves multiple single sites from one application
instance. It is good for running several blogs from one server/vps,
but doesn't have the community features(groups, user blogs, newsfeeds)
that buddy press has. It would probably be easier to add content
managment to a social networking app. You might want to take a look

mephisto + community engine?

flesh...@gmail.com (craayzie) — Thu, 08 Oct 2009 05:07:34 UT

I'm interested in building a site similar to WPMU + Buddypress but w/
Rails. I understand Mephisto can be set up in a multi-site
configuration but as anyone plugged in Community Engine w/ Mephisto as
well? Is Mephisto the right platform for me to go with? Does anyone
have a live multi-site implementation they can point me to so I can

How do you use DESC with sort_by- Reverse comment collection order

haccont...@yahoo.com (Bryan) — Thu, 08 Oct 2009 01:42:12 UT

How do you pass :descending to the sort_by filter?

Example usage:
{% for comment in article.comments sort_by:id :descending %}

Test for article update

I am trying to test for an update date. I tried using variations of
the null/empty examples in this doc.

Updated:<abbr class="updated" title="{{ article.updated_at | date: '%Y-
