 Description   

Provide an overview of social media features you can add to a Magnolia site. Blog is only one of them.

Social media features:

  • Collaboration: Public user registration with PUR module. Collaboration with Forum and Commenting modules. Embedding an external poll.
  • Blogs: Blog module
  • Microblogs: Twitter integration with Frisbee module
  • Image sharing: Flickr integration with Frisbee. Adding editorial Flickr images with a custom DAM handler (Teresa's blog post).
  • Social bookmarking: Default STK bookmarklets and how to customize them. ShareThis and AddThis with Frisbee module.
  • Social networking: Facebook like, share and commenting with Frisbee
  • Geographical location: Google Maps with Frisbee
  • Syndication: RSS feed generation and aggregation
  • Advanced social media mashups: VPRO's Pinkpop festival website uses Magnolia CMS, CouchDB and Camel. The site harvests pictures and video uploaded by festival goers from the Internet and serves the harvested media back to viewers in a single, browsable repository. Link to the presentation VPRO gave at the 2010 Magnolia Conference.

For each social media feature:

  • Explain its goal, typical uses and benefits. For example, the goal of publishing an RSS feed is to syndicate recently updated content in a standard format.
  • Link to existing documentation about the feature. The feature may be provided by Magnolia core, STK or a module. If the linked-to documentation does not explain how to add the feature, correct the issue in the target document rather than here. The purpose of this use case document is to provide an overview to possible social media options, not detailed installation procedures for each individual feature.
  • Include screenshots and examples. Use existing shots such as stkCombinedFeed when possible.

Create the use case document in /use-cases/social-media.

I don't think we need three documents on this topic.

  1. Keep the Blog module article. It supersedes the wiki page.
  2. Archive the wiki page. Add the official docu macro first and archive shortly after.
  3. Don't create a use case document. A use case such as "Adding social media to a website" should just reference the Blog module article, not repeat it.

Changed ticket scope to cover all social media, not only the Blog module.
