Update module to use DNN9.2 blob storage for keeping images and videos.

[gncube]

It would be useful to upgrade this module so it can make full use of the DNN9.2 capabilities.

@DNNCommunity/module-development-team can someone help out on how to implement this, my thought was that the storage was transparent to modules and would just expose that in the filemanager api, is that the case or am I missing some information?

The Blog Module does not allow for setting the root Blog folder to be on Azure Blob storage.

I do not use Azure, but from what I understand the Azure connector allows creating folders that are exposed to the modules transparently using the FileManger api. One gotcha is that it can only have static files, which is fine for the blog module since the templates are html files with tokens. I have created an issue to add some documentation on how to setup the connector since I have no clue.

We updated the ticket on the Platform tracker with info on how to configure the connector for Azure. Hopefully that'll help you guys continue to troubleshoot this issue. Let me know!

@gncube I think you would have to backup the blog folder, delete it, recreate it using Azure connector as described by @ohine and reupload the files in it., would that work for your situation ?
