    I was wondering if it was possible for members to create their own blog posts. They don’t seem to be able to.

    If not, how can I credit the blog post to the member? For example, if I add their blog post, how can I change the author to them and not me? i want to give them credit so they can use their Google+ profile and all. No author field is showing for me.

    Thanks!

    Sorry, but Connections doesn’t have any method to allow posting. it almost sounds like this Authored Extension would be close to meeting your needs … That is if I understood correctly.

    That’s pretty close. Just wish it could have “by whoever” on the actual blog post. I have their profile under the post already but it doesn’t tie to their actual USER profile.

    When you expect this extension to be completed?

    Oh, I understand … on [under] the actual blog post if the author is in Connections, it should show their entry. Correct?

    Actually, no. I love what the new extension will do. I’ll definitely use it. I was just looking for some way to add their name under the blog post title like most are automatically.
