Default label for blog posts?

[ITops123]

Is it possible to set a default label for blog posts in a particular space? We are concerned that our users will contribute to the blog but not remember to add the correct label (which helps us render the updates on other pages).

You might have found this by now, but in case you haven't, here is a user macro that should do the trick:

It sounds like you'd want a custom plugin that uses an EventListener to listen for BlogPostCreateEvents and automatically adds the relevent labels. This plugin would allow you to specify default labels on a per space basis

Thanks for the advice!

I don't know about any approach to set such powerful information as mark. <a href="https://s3.amazonaws.com/riocodes/lightninglabels-coupons.html">Lightning Labels Promo Codes</a> Anyway you can include names "consequently" by characterizing a format and add those marks to the layout. Each page in light of the layout will "acquire" the concurring names.

Hi,

Just a follow up question whether you found a solution for this problem or not? Apparently there are no means of creating blog post global templates?

Best regards,

The add-on "Templates for Blog Posts", by bitvoodoo, works for creating blog posts templates and assigning each one or several labels.

You can use the add-label macro in a page template. That would be easy!

That's true, but I don't think you can suggest page templates for blog posts. At least, I can't figure out how to set a template for a blog entry. If you have suggestions around that, the add-label macro would be a good solution.
