BlogHoster 2.40
BlogHoster is a PHP-based software product which allows you to provide a blog hosting service on your website. The blog hosting that you give your users with BlogHoster is comparable to popular third-party blog hosting services like Blogger, Livejournal, and Typepad. As the admin of your blog hosting service, you can control how users will signup, write in their blogs, and interact with each other. The entire visual frontend of the software is generic, so you can easily give it your website's look and feel. You can even have ads automatically inserted on your users' weblogs. BlogHoster also includes a variety of social-networking features, including interactive rofiles, photo albums, friendships, blog categories, and more.
Features Overview
BlogHoster is the first true multi-user blog hosting platform. In developing the product, we focused on creating a system that would host numerous blogs while connecting their authors with profiles, friendships, and other social networking features. This capacity for "viral growth" is what makes BlogHoster stand far above other blog hosting platforms. Customizability - Unencoded Source - BlogHoster's source code is completely unencoded. This means that you, the administrator, have the ability to modify every aspect of your system. Many BlogHoster administrators have customized their installation to match the unique themes of their websites.
Easy Website Integration - Unlike other blog hosting systems, BlogHoster is exceptionally easy to integrate into your existing website design. With the BlogHoster admin panel, you can easily insert an HTML header and footer to wrap around the BlogHoster content. You can also specify a different HTML header and footer for the internal BlogHoster pages (including the users' blog manager). The CSS styles are also included in the HTML template, so changing the look and feel of your blog hosting service is simple!
Example Portal Pages - Several example portal pages are included with BlogHoster to help you build your own blog community from the ground up. Custom Profile Fields - As the admin, you can create custom profile fields that match the theme of your blog network. For example, if you are running a dating-themed service and want users to describe themselves, you can create fields such as height, weight, hair color, etc.
