Implementing MyBlog on Joomla!

Well, it appears that I've successfully installed MyBlog on the Tech Diary.

The installation was fairly standard, although it's not intuitive how to give users access to the blogging capabilities.  The last install of MyBlog I did was on Joomla! 1.0.x with Community Builder already installed.  I may install CB here, but time constraints prohibit that at this time.

The default install should create a item in the default User Menu to each user's blog.  Since I didn't have a User Menu set up, it wasn't created.  Time to figure out how to manually add that.  To add it, I created a new menu item called "UserMenu" in the Menu Manager, then went to the Maintenance tab in MyBlog admin and clicked "Fix dashboard link".

Further updates as events warrant.
