Web-based Administration
blojsom uses a set of plugins to add web-based administration capabilities where you are able to edit authorized users who can post to your blog, modify blog properties, add/edit/delete entries, add/edit/delete blog categories, modify flavors, modify plugin chains, modify templates, upload files to your blog, and modify users of your blojsom installation.
Authorizing users for the administration console
Authorized users are added to an individual's /WEB-INF/(blog-id)/authorization.properties file. The usernames and passwords in this file control the users that can access the individual blog either via the administration console or XML-RPC. The format of this file is as follows.
Each separate line represents an individual username and password combination. You may associate an e-mail address with the username by adding a "," and the username's e-mail address. The e-mail address is used to send the username an e-mail message if they forget their password. If the e-mail address is not present, the username is assumed to be associated with the blog owner and therefore an e-mail message in this case would be sent to the blog owner's e-mail address.
Accessing the administration console
blojsom reserves one of the flavors defined in the individual user's flavor.properties file for the administration functionality. The administration flavor is admin. You can access the administration console of your blog by adding ?flavor=admin to the URL when accessing your blog. At the login prompt for the administration console, use one of the authorized usernames and passwords that you setup in the individual's /WEB-INF/(blog-id)/authorization.properties file.
