Add nomadblog to the INSTALLED_APPS setting of your settings.py:
INSTALLED_APPS = (
...
'nomadblog',
)
If you use South you can run the included migrations:
./manage.py migrate nomadblog
If you don’t, use your own migration tool or simply syncdb:
./manage.py syncdb
Include this two lines of code in your root urls.py:
# Put it somewhere in the beginning of the file
from django.conf import settings
MULTIBLOG = getattr(settings, 'NOMADBLOG_MULTIPLE_BLOGS', False)
# Add this pattern into your url conf
urlpatterns = patterns('',
...
url(r'^blog/', include('nomadblog.urls')) if not MULTIBLOG \
else (r'^blogs/(?P<blog_slug>[-\w]+)/', include('nomadblog.urls')),
)
You can change the blog/ or blogs/ initial part but do not modify (?P<blog_slug>\w+), because it is used by the app to differenciate which blog is being accessed, in case multiblog is used.
Define the variable NOMADBLOG_MULTIPLE_BLOGS in your project settings as True if you want a multiple blog configuration:
NOMADBLOG_MULTIPLE_BLOGS = True
By default, django-nomadblog uses the Post model, but you can extend it with your own one, that will be then used by the app views:
POST_MODEL = 'yourapp.models.YourExtendedPostModel'
