Please, Create a blog. Huh??
This has always been a strange initial step when a Dolphin site user first begins to use the blog system. They don't really understand this step, and I can see why. Most of the time, they think this is the actual blog post entry, and start typing away. The step is just a little weird.
Fortunately, this is a really easy fix.
- Change the language string from "Please, create a blog" to something like this: "Please enter a Name for your blog before you start posting. You will only have to do this once. "
- "Change the language "Description" to "Please enter a name for your blog" Maybe give some example names for clarity, ie "Bubba's Blog", "Bubba's Health & Wellness Tips", etc
- Get rid of the TinyMCE editor for this preliminary step. It's part of the confusion, and it's an overkill. All that is needed is a simple input field with perhaps a 255 character limit.
- People will understand it this way, but they won't understand why they can't edit their blog title. Add an action button or link somewhere in an obvious place. Call it "Edit Blog Name"
