blogging from org-mode

blogging from org-mode

[Cezar Halmagean]

Hey list,

  I am trying to set up a blog page on my website and I would prefer to
  use org-mode for that. I wonder what are the features provided by
  blorg and org-blog.el and which is better and actively maintained.

  I have tried both
  http://www.cognition.ens.fr/~guerry/org-blogging.html and
  http://dto.freeshell.org/e/org-blog.el but they seem to be down.

Thank you !
Cezar

This page is outdated.

Check blorg on this page instead:

  http://www.cognition.ens.fr/~guerry/blorg.php

I know some people are using blorg successfully.  
I can't compare with org-blog.el since I've never used it.

In any case, a blog engine for Org is really *hot* on the to-do list.   
This week is a bit crazy for me since I'm moving out (from London to
Paris) but I've not given up the work on this.

HTH,

Hey Bastien, I am trying to set up blorg but I cannot find where to set
the host (where to upload the files) or doesn't it handle the uploads ?

Also I think the link from org-mode homepage to blorg is broken too.

It does.  Look at the section about the header in the documentation:

  http://lumiere.ens.fr/~guerry/u/blorg.html#The-header

The directives you need to know about are #+PUBLISH_DIR and
#+UPLOAD_DIR.  Hope you can find your way through this...

You mean the link in org-mode documentation?  I have created a symbolic
link to the right one:

  http://www.cognition.ens.fr/~guerry/blorg.php

Thanks,

The docs don't say anything about uploading to a server, ssh/ftp !?

,----[ (info "(blorg)The header") ]
| #+TITLE, #+BLOG_URL*, #+PUBLISH_DIR*
| 
|     These keywords are mandatory. They respectively define the title of
|     the blog, the full URL of the blog (as publicly available from the
|     web) and the server directory where to upload files.
`----

#+PUBLISH_DIR: /ftp:you@server.org:/home/you/public_html/
#+PUBLISH_DIR: /ssh:you@server.org:/home/you/public_html/

Thank you ! For some reason I couldn't see that.
