I know this thread has died out...

....but I'd love to hear more about incorporating a Movable Type-blog inside a PostNuke-site. I've got so far that I can see the first page of the blog inside the header and footer but all the links point outside of the PostNuke-site.

Do I have to edit the MT-htmlpages (if so, where and how?) or is there any other way with perhaps the empty PHP-page discussed in the above link?

Also, does anyone have any other suggestions on how to make the news-adding more friendly for my not-so-computer-and-HTML-skilled staff? The built-in WYSIWYG-editor is not idiot proof which my users seem to need :o) I think movable type would do the trick although I'm not 100% sure.

I've tried wbloggar but as far as I've tried it can't split up entries in hometext and bodytext(?) which I need.[/url]

Yep. You've got to edit each template page you want to appear within the PN theme and wrap it with whatever flavor of "blank.php" you choose. That way extended pages, archive listings, past articles, etc., all appear within the theme. It's tricky, but it does work. I've currently got MT and Greymatter both running on one site.

The disadvantage, as was pointed out in the thread you reference, is that the content management is not done within PN, but within the blogs. Bu I haven't really found that to be a big thing...I just use PN news and sections for one type of editorial and the blogs for another.

Can't help you with the news editor, as WYSIWYG doesn't work on my Mac.

thanks zack! Now I know where to start digging :)

I nearly went with MT instead of PostNuke simply because it is so good at what it focuses on. I had to go with PostNuke in the end because I couldn't do without some of it's itegrated features. Movable Type in PostNuke would be fantastic!
