Blog Server for .NET Features


ASP.NET: ASP.NET 1.1 and ASP.NET 2.0 compliant with compiler conditionals.

MSSQL Database: Store all blog information on either a Microsoft SQL 2000 or 2005 database server.

Source Code Available: Completely modifiable source code.

IIS Integration: Easily install into any Microsoft IIS server with ASP.NET installed by creating a virtual folder within an existing web site.

Customize the Look and Feel: Blog Server for .NET uses CSS and XHTML and has been designed from the ground up for easy customization and integration.

Anti-Spam: With a CAPTCHA anti-spam control requiring a user to enter a string of random digits with every new blog post, automated comment spam is eliminated. For regular users the administrator can limit the number of posts made within a timeframe.

Intuitive Administration: Administrative functions are built into the same interface that users interact with. Edit and delete posts or comments as you read them. IP addresses of users are posted next to their name.

Comments: Allow or close comments on a per-post or global basis.

Syndication: RSS 2.0 and ATOM 1.0 feeds are automatically generated.

Permalinks: Every post has a permanent URL, ensuring that your content is always available.

Trackback and Pingback: Automatically send trackbacks and pingbacks when you create a link in a new post.

Help: User help files to flatten the learning curve.

Module Based: Extra modules (Search, What's Recent, Blogroll, Pictures, Calendar) can be enabled or disabled and easily placed anywhere within a blog. Everything in a sidebar? Everything in a footer? Turn it all off and have posts only? No problem.

Search: Users can search titles or the complete text of posts.

What’s Recent: Display a summarized list of the most recent posts and comments anywhere within a blog.

Blogroll: Easily add and manage links to other blogs or web pages and display them anywhere within a blog.

Pictures: Display a random graphic such as a personal photo or a map from a rotating collection -- or just display a single one of your choice. Then, place the graphic anywhere in a blog.

Calendar: Allow users to visually browse your archives with the built in AJAX Calendar. Customize the look and feel of your calendar using CSS and place the graphic anywhere in a blog.
