## Description

ScriptureLog is an Open Source plugin for the popular WordPress blogging platform
that allows you to take advantage of Open Source technologies and standards by turning
WordPress into a platform for collaborative scripture study.

ScriptureLog installs volumes of scripture into WordPress as hierarchical, inter-
linking pages of books, chapters, and verses. Once the pages are installed, you 
can use the built-in features of WordPress to collaborate with friends or family,
a seminary or institute class, or members of your congregation or mission, to coordinate
scripture reading, take notes, and discuss the gospel.

### Appropriate Hosting

Because the plugin inserts thousands of pages, ScriptureLog is not suitable for 
sites hosted on WordPress.com, which limits the number of pages an individual account
can have. It is also not recommended for established blogs with a large number of
existing posts. It would be best used on a fresh, Self-Hosted install of WordPress.

## Installation

 1. Upload `scripturelog` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
 3. Add the ScriptureLog Sidebar Widget to your Sidebar
 4. Install the Scripture Volume from the ScriptureLog manager in the menu

## FAQ

  How does ScriptureLog Work?

Websites built on WordPress have two types of content: Posts and Pages. Posts are
listed in reverse chronological order in your blog. Pages, on the other hand, contain
additional information and are often displayed as links across the top of the website
or in the sidebar. The ScriptureLog Plugin inserts thousands upon thousands of inter-
linking pages directly into the database that WordPress uses, and then modifies 
the default behavior of WordPress to exclude these pages from its normal list of
pages and instead present them in a custom sidebar widget.
