I've been trying various things for a few days now, and while I'm making a little bit of progress, it's not going nearly as well as I'd hoped, so I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction.<br>
<br>We're trying to make a site that has user blogs (already done, of course), where each of the individual blogs will display some extra information in the sidebar like you would find in blog-oriented things like Blogger or WordPress (what I'm having trouble with). I've figured out block visibility, but now I'm having trouble getting the logic to pull the right user info.<br>
<br>On 'blog/username', the sidebar should be able to display the following items:<br>* Fields from username's profile (provided by the Profile module)<br>* The picture (avatar) for username<br>* A list of the five most recent posts by username of type blog.<br>
* Either a visual calendar (such as is provided site-wide by the Archive module) or list of months (as provided sitewide by <a href="http://drupal.org/node/52037">http://drupal.org/node/52037</a>) showing when posts where made (and how many in each time period), BUT only dealing with posts by username, again of type blog (not all posts).<br>
* A "blogroll" of links if desired by the user.<br><br>This is taking a bit longer than I can really afford to invest right now, so if you could help me out with whatever will be an efficient way of accomplishing that it would be much appreciated. (Note: I have started reading about modules, blocks, and views, but have only a scant understanding so far.)<br clear="all">
