!!! Home Blog (main blog)

The Home Blog will have the following properties:
* If not selected it will default to the first blog created.
* It's where you go if you click on blogs in the main menu (without expanding the menu).
* It's where you go as the home page if you select the home page to be a blog (in the general settings).

!!! Blog features

Enable/disable rankings/comments and you can select which is the Home Blog. 

!!! Blog listings configuration

!!! Blog comments settings

!!! Blog Archives
You can see the blog archives using the module __months_links__, which will also allow you to see links for other years posts. 
{CENTER()}|| ^{img fileId="286" alt="" rel="box[g]"}^ | ^{img fileId="288" alt="" rel="box[g]"} ^ | ^{img fileId="287" alt="" rel="box[g]" }^
Module shown when __English__ %%% is selected as language | Module shown when __French__ %%% is selected as language | Module shown when __Russian__ %%% is selected as language 
::Note that the number of blog posts per year can vary depending on the language::
||{CENTER} 

In order to have this module configured, you have to add some paramters as in the screenshot below:

{CENTER()}{img fileId="285" alt="" rel="box[g]"}{CENTER} 

So this way, each language can have a module specific for that language, showing the posts of that blog (one blog per language), for a given time frame, specified in the parameters of the module definition.

In addition, you can show blog posts between two dates in a wiki page using the ((PluginBlogList|Blog list)) plugin, with the parameters for start date and end date.
