It is always safe to "save as draft" or "full preview", but don't click "post to weblog" until you are ready. The URL of the blog post appears to be fixed the first time you save the draft. It is formed based on the title, but you can override it, until you do the first save. So if you care about the URL then review that before saving for the first time. A good name has some small SEO advantage. The other trick I know is to share a draft on the list. If you copy the URL that shows up when you do a preview, it looks like this: https://blogs.apache.org/roller-ui/authoring/preview/OOo/?previewEntry=foo If you share that URL no one can see it unless they are also blog editors. But if you remove that central "roller-ui/authoring" section then anyone can read that URL, e.g.: https://blogs.apache.org/preview/OOo/?previewEntry=foo I'd avoid pasting in content from AOO directly, since that brings over the AOO formatting, or at least attempts to do so and that is messy. But if you first paste into a plain text editor and then paste into Roller it is fine. -Rob > thanks in advance. > rgds > jan I. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org
