• Hacking Community Server: Event Calendars Part 1

  This is the first of a five-part series on implementing an event calendar in Community Server 2007. Our first step today will be to implement dynamic URLs, and the page stubs to go with them.

• Community Server Time Zones

• Hacking Community Server: Comments on the Home Page

  Tonight I got a comment on my blog, and noticed that it displayed on the homepage in the "What's New" list. That's weird; certainly not how Community Server used to behave.

• Site Upgrade – Update 1

  So I finally got Community Server 2007 installed, well upgraded from version 2.
