Hi,

An easy solution, at least for 3.0 Community version is editing the file blog-posts.post.json.js, which is in the path <ALFERSCO_HOME/tomcat/webapps/alfresco/WEB-INF/classes/alfresco/templates/webscripts/org/alfresco/repository/blogs/posts/blog-posts.post.json.js, and looks like this:

<import resource="classpath:alfresco/templates/webscripts/org/alfresco/repository/requestutils.lib.js">
<import resource="classpath:alfresco/templates/webscripts/org/alfresco/repository/nodenameutils.lib.js">
<import resource="classpath:alfresco/templates/webscripts/org/alfresco/repository/blogs/blogpost.lib.js">

function ensureTagScope(node)
{
   if (! node.isTagScope)
   {
      node.isTagScope = true;
   }
   
   // also check the parent (the site!)
   if (! node.parent.isTagScope)
   {
      node.parent.isTagScope = true;
   }
}

/**
 * Creates a blog post
 */
function createBlogPost(blogNode)
{
   // fetch the data required to create the post
   var title = "";
   if (json.has("title"))
   {
      title = json.get("title");
   }
   var content = "";
   if (json.has("content"))
   {
      content = json.get("content");
   }
   var tags = [];
   if (json.has("tags"))
   {
      // get the tags JSONArray and copy it into a real javascript array object
      var tmp = json.get("tags");
      for (var x=0; x < tmp.length(); x++)
      {
          tags.push(tmp.get(x));
      }

   // get a unique name

   if (isDraft)

      postNode.setInheritsPermissions(false);
   }
   else
   {
      setOrUpdateReleasedAndUpdatedDates(postNode);
   }

   return postNode;
}

function main()
{
   // get requested node
   var node = getRequestNode();
   if (status.getCode() != status.STATUS_OK)
   {
      return;
   }
   
   ensureTagScope(node);

   var post = createBlogPost(node);
   model.item = getBlogPostData(post);

The lines

   // add the aspect and create the forum as well as the comments topic
   postNode.addAspect("fm:discussable");
   var forumNode = postNode.createNode("Forum", "fm:forum", "fm:discussion");
   commentsFolder = forumNode.createNode(COMMENTS_TOPIC_NAME, "fm:topic", "cm:contains");

Simply will create, when you ar posting a blog entry, a node named Comments where members, without admin privilegs, will be able to post comments.

I hope It will be useful.

Bye
