Examples

Basic Use

Add the {blog-calendar} macro to a page or panel where you want to display a calendar of blog posts

{blog-calendar}

Which gives:

<<	May 2012
Sun	Mon	Tue	Wed	Thu	Fri	Sat
		1	2	3	4	5
6	7	8	9	10	11	12
13	14	15	16	17	18	19
20	21	22	23	24	25	26
27	28	29	30	31

This defaults to the @context date scheme which means that when you are viewing a blogpost then the creation date will be used, when you are viewing the blog archive then the relevant month will be used for the date you are viewing, and when used anywhere else the current date will be used.
