    Customizing a blog theme in blog4umbraco

    I have done some customization of a blog theme. I notice that when I click on a year/month and view all the posts from that month that the theme reverts to the old template. I only have 4 templates listed in my Templates section:

    • BlogMaster
    • Blog
    • BlogPost
    • Blogpost Textpage
    None of these apparently controls the year/month listing. Where would I find this template or how to change which template this particular content is using?
    Thank you.

    Have you looked to see what template it is using?

    (click on the node in the content tree, go to the properties tab and see what it says in the template drop down)

    From there I would look at the template, and then see what macros it is loading.  Hopefully the styling you are wanting to change is being done there.

    It's using the template "Blog." I have a custom templated created for this called "Blog-ND." In DocTypes under "Blog" I have ticked the box next to "Blog-ND" to be an allowed template for this DocType. However, when I go to the properties tab under the blog, I cannot select "Blog-ND" template, only "Blog" is available in the drop down menu.

    Edit: I found it! The DocType that controls this is actually "DateFolder." Once I ticked the allowed templates for that DocType I was able to select the template for the year/folder under the blog.
