204 +Viewing or editing a blog entry can be improve. The three things we want to customize:
205 205  
206 206  * to remove the email address of the author when viewing the blog entry
207 207  * to make the **Content** field to be a text area instead of a input field, and even better: attach TinyMCE to the text area
208 +* modifying the order of attributes when viewing or editing a blog entry so that the title field is the first field, followed by content, the two dates and the author
208 208  
209 209  Those two customizations can be done by adding D2W rules. The D2W rules are in two files, located in the **Resources** folder, **d2w.d2wmodel** and **user.d2wmodel**. To edit the files, make sure you installed RulesModeler, a Mac application that manages D2W rule files. If RuleModeler is present, you can simply double-click on **d2w.d2wmodel** and the file will open in RulesModeler.
