A WordPress-like blog app implemented in Wagtail.

After reimplimenting WordPress-like blogs over and over again in Wagtail I decided to just make this. Feel free to use as is or copy it as a starting point. It's based on the Wagtail demo blog but is closer to a standard WordPress blog style.

• Categories and tags with views
• RSS
• Basic starter templates with pagination
• Comments
• WordPress importer

Work in progress?

• Disqus comments

1. pip install wagtail-blog
2. Add blog to INSTALLED_APPS
3. Add url(r'^blog/', include('blog.urls')), to urls.py
4. python manage.py migrate
5. Override templates as needed.

BLOG_PAGINATION_PER_PAGE (Default 10) Set to change the number of blogs per page. Set to None to disable (useful if using your own pagination implementation).

1. Enable WordPress JSON API
2. Create a Blog index page and note the title. Let's pretend my blog index page title is "blog"
3. Run ./manage.py wordpress_to_wagtail http://myblog.com blog username password the username is your WordPress username with full access to the API. Without this you can't access all blog posts.

django-comments-xtd comments work out of the box. Just install it as directed here. Customizing the xtd comment templates should be all you need - but feel free to review this app's templates which you may want to override.

Out of box Disqus coming someday - but it's pretty easy to add manually following the Disqus documentation and overriding templates.

Feel free to contribute other comment implimentations.

The included docker-compose file should make it easy to get up and running.

1. Install docker and docker-compose
2. docker-compose up
3. docker-compose run --rm web ./manage.py migrate
4. docker-compose run --rm web ./manage.py createsuperuser
5. Log in and create a blog index page with blog pages to see a very basic implementation.
