Hello,

first iam new to Drupal and i never testet it bevor. Yet i will be able the next days to test it by myself.

Here is my question:

Is it possible to let each user to creat his own blog? I think yes?!.. alright

1. But is there a way to let some users get startet with one blog? That two or more users can work on only one blog?
2. Is there a function like in wordpress etc. to handel with rpc pings from other blogs?

Thank you very much!

Greetings

Michael

You can enable blogging for users by default. You can probably set permissions to let certain users access the same blog.

Also, there might be a plug-in for pings but I haven't come across one.

okay, i tested drupal 6 RC2 and 5.x but i cant finger out how to set the permissions, that some users can write to only one blog...

of course every user can write posts for his own blog now.

any ideas?

If you want only 1 blog, you should consider not using the 'blog' module, as it's intended for multi-user blogs.
You could just use an easy content type, like 'Story', and give some users rights to create Story nodes.
Then make sure the posts of this content type get promoted to the frontpage, and you've got yourself a basic blog.

And for the rpc pings: do you mean trackback? If so, have a look at http://drupal.org/project/trackback
