Settings Profile options
When you create a blog, you can specify a profile, which defines a large number of settings that will applied to that blog. The profile is divided into these sections:
This defines the name of the profile.
Paging determines how many articles or days will appear on a given category page.
Permissions defines security and privacy settings for the blog.
Excerpts controls the use of excerpts in category pages, trackbacks and email notifications.
The Comments and Trackbacks section determines how comments made in response to entries are processed. These options include settings to protect users' blogs from spam.
Nofollow - The nofollow options allow you to specify whether comments and trackbacks are included in the Google search results ranking system.
Moderation - The moderation options allow you to specify whether comments and trackbacks must be approved by the blog owner before they can be posted. Moderation options are:
Never moderate - Comments / trackbacks will not be moderated; they will be posted as soon as they are submitted.
Always moderate - All comments / trackbacks will be moderated; they will not be posted until the blog owner has approved them.
Moderate only if comment / trackback is detected as spam - Comments that have been flagged as spam will not be posted until the blog owner has approved them.
Automatically delete if trackback is detected as spam, moderate all others - Trackbacks that have been identified as spam will be deleted. All other trackbacks will not be posted until you have approved them.
Automatically delete if trackback is detected as spam, do not moderate others - Trackbacks that have been identified as spam will be deleted. All other trackbacks will be posted on your blog as soon as they are submitted.
Miscellaneous controls the way archives are displayed, the type of editor used by authors and syndication.
Templates determines whether the customer can customize a blog-wide template and per-category templates.
Posting Defaults controls the default settings for new blog entries.
Note: The Enable cosmos link option enables or disables the Post Cosmos setting in the Publisher Control Panel. By default, users will not see the Post Cosmos setting unless you enable it here. If you do not enable this Cosmos option, you can still enable or disable the Post Cosmos setting for an individual blog using the updateBlogSettings API command (see the API documentation).
Photo Notifications controls the notifications that are posted when a new photo is added to a photo gallery.
Article Notifications controls the notifications that are sent out when a new article is posted.
The Comment Notifications section allows you to specify if a notification is sent to the blog owner when new comments are made to a blog entry, and the content of that notification.
