Forum:How do you get the blogs to work like they do here?

On this wiki, how is it set up so only staff and sysops can create blog posts? Is it a MediaWiki page? Whatever it is, I could use it on my wiki. -- Mr. Starfleet Command (Talk &bull; Contributions &bull; Social Activity) 22:59, 8 August 2022 (UTC)

Hello Mr. Starfleet Command! I think the issue is that Blog posts are a Wiki Feature that Administrators could turn on/off, which means that the Wiki you are talking about most likely has the Blog post feature set to off! I would recommend contacting an Admin on the Wiki you're talking about and ask if they could reenable it! I am guessing that the Wiki might have had problems with users using Blog posts for destructive means and they might not interested in reenabling this feature, but it won't hurt to ask the Admin and see what they have to say! :) - PinkSquid5 (talk)


 * Thanks for your reply, PinkSquid5, but I know how the blog feature works as I am the currently active admin on my wiki. On normal wikis, while the feature is enabled, all users can make blog posts. However, on Community Central, you must have a higher rank, such as staff, in order to make a blog post. Again, thank you for your reply, but do you also know how you can restrict who can make blog posts, like on Community Central? -- Mr. Starfleet Command (Talk &bull; Contributions &bull; Social Activity) 12:36, 9 August 2022 (UTC)


 * Hello! I suggest you post new topics on Discussions, since forums aren't used anymore.
 * Anyway, i don't think such a blog posting restriction can be set by default - or even is allowed by Fandom. Here is the help page about blogs. Go to the bottom of the article in order to contact Fandom. Muchos (talk) 13:12, 9 August 2022 (UTC)


 * Have a good day, this wiki is an exception, I doubt you'd be able to do it for you, but you can check your chances at asking Fandom Staff. 13:15, 9 August 2022 (UTC)
