This looks like this extension would be the perfect for my project.
Before I install it (assuming I can figure that part out) I just
wanted to know if anyone here has tried it out.

Sadly I haven't even seen it yet (so many new extensions these days.)
Paul is a core member and his stuff is good (besides knowing Spree
well.) So I imagine it will be worth your while (even if its not up
to date with the edge.)

Installed it, works perfect. I put the snippet on my home page by
adding this bit:

<%= render :partial => "shared/blog_snippet" %>

and tweaked the file : vender/extensions/blog/shared/
_blog_snippet.html.erb

- all no problem.


Thanks Paul -
Thanks Sean.

I installed it too.
And try to do the localization.
Adding the zh-TW file, but it seems not i18n ready. :)

There's a few translations in the extensions, but more would be
useful. Note that some of the phrases should maybe be pulled out as
configuration options, eg the blog tiitle and subtitle.

I'm glad someone is getting some use out of it. I am afraid I don't
use this extension much at the moment, so I can't promise any updates
soon.

Paul
