Existing set of tags can be easily changed or extended with custom tags. Multiple templates per entry and different templates for each category are also supported. You can even associate a template with a particular <span class="caps">URL </span>(for example, to provide custom "file not found" and "not authorized" pages).</li> </ul> <ul> <li><strong>Super-easy installation</strong><br /> Blooki provides zero-step (for servers that use built-in webserver) or one-step (for servers that run using external webserver) install.</li> </ul> <ul> <li><strong>Multiple execution options</strong><br /> Blooki gives you a choice of single-threaded, forking, or multi-threaded daemon server (using built-in webserver), <span class="caps">CGI, </span>or mod_perl execution options.</li> </ul> <ul> <li><strong>Flexible archiving</strong><br /> Blooki supports archiving by day, month, year, category, or a combination of those; all this can also be applied to select posts from a particular category.</li> </ul> <ul> <li><strong>Config-driven customization</strong><br /> Almost all aspects of the system (templates, modules/plugins to run, and their configuration) can be customized by changing configuration files on a category-by-category basis.</li> </ul> <ul> <li><strong>Multiple categories per post</strong><br /> Blooki allows you to have an entry linked to multiple categories.</li> </ul> <ul> <li><strong>Web standard compliance</strong><br /> Everything that Blooki generates -- <span class="caps">XHTML, CSS, </span>and <span class="caps">RSS </span>code -- is in compliance with web standards out of the box.</li> </ul> <ul> <li><strong><span class="caps">RSS </span>syndication</strong><br /> Blooki includes support for <span class="caps">RSS</span> 1.0 (RDF), <span class="caps">RSS</span> 2.0, and Atom syndication formats.</li> </ul> <ul> <li><strong>Several markup choices</strong><br /> Not only does Blooki support several markup filters (Textile, Tiki, and simple ConvertBreaks), but it also gives you several ways to select what filters to apply (config file, template, and entry) and allows you to apply multiple filters.</li> </ul> <ul> <li><strong>Multiple sub-categories and sub-sites</strong><br /> Blooki allows you to have unlimited number of sub-categories and sub-sites. You can limit their visibility to/from other parts of the system by applying Hide and Root plugins.</li> </ul> <ul> <li><strong>Minimum requirements and dependencies</strong><br /> Blooki runs out of the box and only requires Perl 5.005 or later. Some plugins may have additional requirements.</li> </ul> <ul> <li><strong>Free for taking</strong><br /> Blooki is licensed under <a href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.0/">Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 2.0</a>.</li> </ul> http://blooki.org/features.atom/features 2004-09-22T05:09:34Z 2004-09-22T05:09:34Z
