For certain categories I'm treating EasyBlog as an alternative to Joomla's Articles. Does EB have any built-in features for remembering, per user or per session, how many articles per page are shown, or layout display such as grid, blog roll, headline only, etc.? Or would this require a custom plugin?
Hey david,

Currently we have store the blog revision for every time you save the post.

For example :
When you published a new blog post, then you edit again, it will store as 1 revision data for this.
After that you can compare back what is that content updated in the latest blog.
So you can revert back to previous revision data.

how many articles per page are shown, or layout display such as grid, blog roll, headline only, etc.?

By the way, I am not quite sure understand this, perhaps you can elaborate more details regarding this?

Here's some visual examples:



Note at the top-right there are settings for layout display and item count per page. I think these settings are stored in cookies, but if some sites are trying to be cookie-free, perhaps the best thing would be for this info to be stored in sessions for guests and the database for registered users.

Another way of wording it is, can users set these settings on the frontend?



I'd like to give the user a reasonable amount of control.

I am sorry for the delay of this reply,

Hm unfortunately that was not possible to achieve this in Easyblog.

Yes, user unable to configure this setting from frontend.
