Forum:Blog category

How can you change the default category added by the bot when a new blog is created? And about the blog listing pages, can be edited other than using Special:CreateBlogListingPage? (I wish to personalize more the code) 16:33, July 21, 2011 (UTC)


 * What bot is adding a default blog category? And you should be able to click "generate code" to modify the code of a blog page. You can also create one at Special:CreatePage by adding  to the title.

Usually when you make a blog, you don't have to add a category do you? So how can I change the default category added? About the blog lists, can I simply create a page with the namespace "blog"? But if I try to modify an existing blog list, it redirects me to Special:CreateBlogListingPage, then I have to delete the page and recreate it? 16:46, July 21, 2011 (UTC)


 * It looks like the auto-added category on new blog posts is controlled by the text at MediaWiki:Create-blog-post-category. You can create a blog list by creating a page with the Blog: prefix. Yes, the redirect prevents you from editing an existing blog list page, which is extremely annoying. You could express your annoyance to Wikia (Special:Contact) if you want them to fix that.
