Sharepoint (WSS 3 + MOSS 2007) Woes

[metroidfox]

I want my blog site to have an 'Archive' section on its main page and for it to list month headings, linking to my prior blogs for those months. Is there a way to do this?

Is it also possible to share blogs from one site to another one? (Both sites are on the same server.)

I've been stuck trying to solve these issues for days to no avail so any help would be greatly, greatly appreciated.

If you have the sharepoint extensions for vs2005 you could make a webpart that looked into the blog list with a caml query and output to a calendar control, you could then either just below the calendar have a viewer type control that output the posts from the selected date that you clicked on the calendar, alternatively you could create a linked webpart, i'm sure there are a number of ways of doing this.

Is it also possible to share blogs from one site to another one? (Both sites are on the same server.)

I aren't sure about this one, if you are talking about the same sitecollection then I would imagine you could again create a custom webpart looking into the blog on another subsite or similar and then output something, if it is a different site collection this could also be true thinking about it, as you would simply need to instantiate a new site object with the other sites url and port... thinking out loud here...

good luck,
