Is it possible to use Discourse as a blogging system for users?

This method is good but for a small number of blogs. When we are going to have a large number of blogs, the settings in this way become very difficult. We need to create a category called Blog and create a subset within the number of users requesting the blog. In addition, we need to create groups based on the number of users requesting the blog to set their access. After a while, for example, 1000 blogs control, manage, and apply changes becomes almost impossible.

Thanks for introducing this component, I will review it. WordPress is good for this, but users certainly prefer to work in a single environment. Now their conversations take place inside the discourse and it is better for them to write their blog in the same environment.

Exactly we have already implemented such a plan. This idea is perfectly applicable. In addition, in the category we intended for the blog, we changed the style of the page, so that the first post is large and the rest of the posts are displayed as comments.

However, the only problem we have with this method is that we can not assign tags to users, and it is not the right thing to do. If there was a possibility that some of the content published in a blog category and we had a stream in the user profile that listed the content written in his/her blog, this problem would be solved.

Because at the moment, the only way we can see a person’s blog list is to use the advanced search. By selecting the blog’s category and the author’s user.
