Blog Archives

You can see the blog archives using the module months_links in Tiki6, which will also allow you to see links for other years posts.


Module shown when English is selected as language	Module shown when French is selected as language	Module shown when Russian is selected as language
Note that the number of blog posts per year can vary depending on the language

In order to have this module configured, you have to add some paramters as in the screenshot below:

So this way, each language can have a module specific for that language, showing the posts of that blog (one blog per language), for a given time frame, specified in the parameters of the module definition.

In addition, since Tiki5, you can show blog posts between two dates in a wiki page using the Blog list plugin, with the parameters for start date and end date.
