        <title>Forum and Blog?</title>
        <description> Hello,

I would like to use Phorum as a combination of forum and blog, is there a template to view a forum in blog-style?

Thanks!</description>

            <description><![CDATA[ Some time ago, I created a news/blog-forum combination with phorum 5.1.25<br />
I can choose between a blog look and a forum look. It&#039;s not template based but I did modify some pages that display topic lists or articles.<br />
If someone is interested how it looks go to [<a href="http://demokratie.mine.nu/" target="_blank"  rel="nofollow">demokratie.mine.nu</a>]<br />
Don&#039;t mind the German language.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ I too wanted something like blogs.  I was thinking that the blog would be just a private forum.  The blogger has the right to say who views it (everybody, buddies, registered users, etc) and who if anybody gets to post.<br />
<br />
I presume I could set up forums like this, but it would be so time consuming to set up so many forums.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ Thanks, Maurice. Already checked out Wordcraft and implemented it in an application. I just like to have everything under one hood. If I should have time in the near future I will &quot;play&quot; with it.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ I did not have blog features in mind, since I did not create that template, nor felt the use for it.<br />
<br />
Brian Moon created <a href="http://code.google.com/p/wordcraft/" target="_blank"  rel="nofollow">Wordcraft</a> when he needed a useful, light weight Blogging application. He did not go for pushing Phorum until the level where is acted as this kind of basic blog.<br />
<br />
Surely it would be possible to use Phorum&#039;s structure and module / template support to create a blog application. Have fun playing with that idea.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ I used the search button, you had the better search term! Thanks. - I think it&#039;be fun if a user could set up a blog by her/himself (At least it was mentioned in my conversations with people.) Which typical &quot;Blog&quot; features did you have in mind which would be difficult to implement in a simple Phorum Blog application?]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ A forum is not a blog. Feature sets are different, use cases are different.<br />

If you use the search function on these forums, you can find a thread like <a href="http://www.phorum.org/phorum5/read.php?63,123666,132724#msg-132724" target="_blank" >this one</a>.]]></description>
