Community Server CSModule

UPDATE: This Module now includes support for visual selection of your blog theme!

For my regular readers, warning: This is not a political or religious rant! This has to do with my other even more geeky endeavors of programming and helping to make the system that this site runs on even better. So you've been warned.

Ok, here it is, the Blog Creation CSModule.

From the Readme:

This is a CS Addin for creating a user's blog during registration.
It's different in that it allows the user to specify the name,description, and group as part of the process, instead of just doing it all in the background with predetermined settings.

It works by using a CSModule to hook into the AfterUser event. When a user is succesfully registered, they are redirected to another page where they can then create their blog.

I'm using this at my new site http://www.onthesoapbox.net , so if you are Blogless, and have been wanting to start a Blog so you can just let loose on your soapbox, this is the perfect place for you.

Enjoy, hope this helps someone get an idea of how these CSModules work.

This is a work in progress, while it is fully functional right now, I plan to enhance it to cleanup the workflow a little, maybe add a job that cleans up empty and unused blogs after a certain time period, allow setting more options on the blog creation page etc ... I will keep all updates posted here.
