HI Ezra,
I have been catching up on the podcasts... and you mentioned in #2 that your Podcast tab took you to an external URL (the wordpress blog) -
I haven't tested this - but you mentioned a URL change - which i assumed to be the link would take you to an external host - but yours doesn't (it's still prosocialgo.net - the blog prepends the www) ... but is it just cloaked by the built-in features of SoGo and forwarded transparently?

Did I explain that question?

Many thanks, Hope you had a good weekend,
Cheers
Rob

Hey Rob,
It is a different host. The main page is prosocialgo.com and the podcast is prosocialgo.NET
With the new LM, you can strip a WP blog, or a BLOGGER Blog of it's header and insert it by iframe. If you threw the same CSS color scheme on the blog it would blend pretty well.

I went the hard way. I actually turned Socialgo HTML Code into a word press theme. So now, I can use the Wordpress theme on any SG network, when I apply the style sheet (of my SG network) to that WP theme, it works just like SG, it looks just like my site, because it is the same HTML, same tags etcc.)

I would suggest the iframe rout, Spencer on Widget lab actually drops a blog in a iframe in one of his LM tutorials. I don't know witch one.

The only reason I did two blogs, is I want tutorials blog and a news/podcast blog. It's kind of a hassle.
