I am looking for a blog solution to run inside a Django project deployed on the Google App Engine. After a bit of review I decided to try out Mezzanine v0.11.3. I've overcome the hurdle of getting it in project using the advice of others deploying on App Engine at this link: http://groups.google.com/group/mezzanine-users/browse_thread/thread/c8b13c41a3168c94.

Mezzanine is now showing up in the Admin, but clicking on Blog posts leads to a multi-table inheritance failure. I believe that this is due to multi-site support functionality in Mezzanine via use of the Django sites framework.

Has anyone overcome this issue? I'm going to try to use django-dbindexer but I'm not confident it will work.

*Update: as far as I can tell, the folks at AllButtonsPressed don't have any magic solutions to work around ManyToManyField issues yet, so I think that option is dead.

If no one knows a work around, do any of you know of a good blog solution I can run inside a Django project on the App Engine?

*Update: found this post Integrating Blogger into a Google App Engine App. Will investigate if this solves the problem.

*Current Status: I have not been able to solve this problem and I don't think it is currently solvable. Thought I would share what I found through my investigations though; maybe someone out there can carry on and come up with a solution.

Options tried:

Bloog

  • I looked this over but it is a Python solution, not a Django solution and I didn't want to do the work to turn it into one
