Blog Privacy Settings
This controls the privacy options on all blogs. This feature is only available to users who subscribe as sitewide supporters.
Default is Allow all visitors to all blogs and Allow blog administrators to modify privacy settings for their blog
NOTE:
When you make changes to blog privacy settings you have the option to apply these changes to all blogs on the site or only to new blogs being created.
- Select ‘Update All Blogs’ to update blogs existing blogs created and apply to all new blogs being created.
- Don’t select ‘Update All Blogs’ if you only want these new changes to apply to all new blogs being created
Updating all blogs can take time depending on number of blogs hosted.
Admin Panel Footer Setting
Footer text can be used to place a message at the bottom of the admin panel of every blog. For example, Edublogs uses this to brand the bottom of their blog dashboards.
Help Content
The help content can be used to place helpful information and links which appears in the dropdown help box that your users can click at the top of the screen.
Here is the text that was used to create this help content:
Default blogroll
The default blogroll allows you to create links to websites that appear in the blogroll that is automatically added when new blogs are created in your community.
Theme Settings
Theme settings give you the ability to change this default theme for all new blogs created in your community to your preferred theme.
For example, Edublogs default theme was created by customizing Cutline by Chris Pearson and original header by Thomas Hawk. Here’s what a new blog on Edublogs looks like:
