I'm Designing Adult Blog Software ~ Ideas?
 

I've decided to build my own adult blog software. What features should it have? The more info you give me, the better it will be. Also, please include examples.

It will be all PHP, I can make it both dynamic and static.

BTW, it's going to be free to all, if people help with testing and giving me ideas.

If you think you can provide all the features and more of Wordpress, MT, etc, then go for it.

What do you think you could offer adult webmasters that the others cannot? Do you have at least one feature that adult webmasters would want? Please clarify.

The features are for you to give me (in terms of making it more for adult blogging). I can code anything. I do all the programming for my own sites and have for over 10 years.

As for the basic of blog features, that's easy. It's just publishing. But my goal is to make this more for us, not the whole blogging community.

Example... a feature for publishing galleries with your entries.

Yes, galleries with entires would be great. and then be able to insert sponor shit in certain areas of the gallery. Like babes.coolios.net does with their hosted galleries. You should look at the top adult blogs and just take those features and use them for your software. By the way, do you do custom programming for clients? I need some work done..shouldn't take but a few hours.

Yeah, I saw their site. My problem with looking them over is that I don't know how their backend works. Give me a list of blog sites you like and what you like about them.

Yes, I do custom programming, but it depends on the size. I normally don't take small projects.

Sign up at www.myhotblog.com and play around with the admin

Its got some cool features - should give you some ideas

Whats the difference between adult and mainstream blogs?

Mainstream software like wordpress and movabletype are for all people wanting to blog. I want to make something that includes features adult bloggers would use. Like the example I included above, gallery publishing, sponsor promotion, maybe gallery ratings, etc.

I dont see a difference. Wordpress is the easiest. I allows for date maniplulation and it allows you to type TEXT TEXT TEXT

If you want to do all that gallery shit go start a TGP script. Just my opinion

You don't know how it works? Well don't you make your own stuff??? Don't get me wrong..I know nothing about coding and technology.

If we are to post features and solutions that we want, you should be able to create it, right?

All I can think of at the moment is the gallery thing..hopefully I can have some lightbulbs go off soon..

Then keep using WP. We're going to build something for adult blogging.

BTW, a TGP is not a blog. I hope you know that. :2 cents:

I don't know what they're using for their blog. If they created something custom, that means I don't know how their "backend" works (in terms of functionality). Before you code something, you have to design the functionality. That is the part I'm looking to get ideas for.


That is what I said -lol.

The ability to make thumbs would be nice, using either a flash or other method to crop thumbs from a larger picture would be nice.

Tracking of trades you have, productivity, hits in, etc.

Yeah, I was just thinking that; making thumbs. The flash thing you'll have to get someone else to make.

As for trading, I want to make it so you can use whatever script you're using. Making it so you can include a require tag in the template.

I think the most important feature is the ability to pre-program updates and have it update automatically every 24 hours

:thumbsup :thumbsup Is there a wordpress plugin that can do that, I want to make 30 posts and have it update twice daily at specified times. I hate having to be around a PC to do these updates. I could be out boating or something :1orglaugh

:thumbsup

dude hit me up on icq, i would really like to talk to you about this, i have something in development that would i think might interest you

Done. :thumbsup

Built-in banner rotator
Built-in content management
Gallery builder, thumbnailer (We upload say 16 pictures and a couple banners in the admin and the script generated a gallery with thumbnails from that.)
Better link management than Wordpress (i.e. category links instead of having your links show up on every page).
Thumbnail and gallery rotator for building Blog/TGP hybrids
Link rotator for showing random links in top positions every time the site is reloaded.

Things like banner rotation and link trades, I'm going to leave it so you can use other scripts.

Galleries, trading script incorporated ... etc

Here is what I got so far...

1) Thumb creation.
2) Photo albums (aka, galleries).
3) Link management (aka sponsor links).

Heres one that would rock. Have a list of keywords that are automatically converted to links. So for example im posting about a hot nubiles girl. Rather than hunt down the link i want inserted the script could just parse the word "nubiles" with a built in link to their site with my ref code.

Ideally the end user could set up unlimited keywords and have them linked to whatever url they wanted of their choosing through an admin interface.

For ex: natural breasts, cumshots, etc... basically any keyword where there is click value.

:upsidedow

Can it make me an espresso?

Correct and no. In a few months, it will be 11 years, though I started programming way before the web came along.

That would rock.. totally rock!

Set the timestamp to somewhere in the future and mark publish.

also add a CMS for auto embeded movies, i hate adding them daily!

Bump for a good thread :thumbsup

I dont think you know that, Look at all the features you are trying to add.

GALLERY Publishing and GALLERY rating.

THings that COMUS already has, i think you want to create another TGP script.

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh
Man im sorrry for the wasted time. There is no plugin. Just type in 30 entries, go to advanced setting and edit the time stamp

And if you say advance the timestamp a day ahead and push post, then tomorrow at that momment it will post the entry automattically.

There is a big difference between a TGP and a blog. I'm not going to waste my time trying to explain that to you. If you don't want to help out, then don't. You stay over in your part of the world paying with your toys and we'll be over here playing with ours.

CMS??????

I know this, my point is YOU dont. :1orglaugh

Riiight, sure you do.

Ok, I've started building. I should have the beta version ready in a week.

hey fucker :1orglaugh :thumbsup

I would like to see the beta of this.

Why not have a 2257 syndication system that sponsors would feed into along with their FHG links etc? This could be a revenue stream for you as well if you think about it. Plus if you execute it right it would make blog building a snap for your blog members.
