LM Blogger

Publish useful ideas without wrestling a giant CMS.

THE PROBLEM THIS APP SOLVESPublishing useful ideas can turn into CMS maintenance, SEO settings and formatting work instead of writing and serving the reader.

LM Blogger is a simple hosted writing and publishing room with cover images, categories, tags, metadata, real post URLs, RSS and member conversations. It can also import the recent posts currently exposed by the Layne McDonald Wix RSS feed.

BUILT FOR THIS JOBWrite it once. Give it a permanent, searchable home.

Authors, pastors, creators, ministries, nonprofits, small businesses and teams that need a clean ongoing publication channel.

BEFORE YOU OPEN IT

Know the job, the files, and the cost first.

LMOS should answer the practical questions before showing you a long feature list.

WHAT PROBLEM DOES THIS APP SOLVE?Publishing useful ideas can turn into CMS maintenance, SEO settings and formatting work instead of writing and serving the reader.
WHO IS THIS FOR?Authors, pastors, creators, ministries, nonprofits, small businesses and teams that need a clean ongoing publication channel.
WHAT CAN I MAKE?Work built around Focused editor, Hosted post URLs, Wix RSS import.
HOW DOES IT WORK?Name the blog and set its public identity → Write or import posts, images, categories and tags → Preview each hosted post and tune the search/social description
HOW DOES IT CONNECT TO PROJECTS?It stays inside your LMOS project system, so related tasks, files, collaborators and project context can remain connected instead of becoming another isolated account.
WHERE DO FILES LIVE?Keep large originals on your device, external drive or your own Google Drive. Use LM Managed Storage only when you deliberately want LMOS to host a copy.
WHAT DOES IT COST?Beta 0.5.2 · Free during beta · launch From $5/mo · $50/yr. LMOS never silently adds AI, storage or usage overages.
WHAT ARE THE BETA LIMITATIONS?This is a working beta. Use the capabilities shown as available now; roadmap ideas may change. LM-hosted uploads are limited to 100 MB per file, so large media should remain local or in connected storage.
HOW DO I START?Open the app from the project you are creating, or start a new LMOS project and add this specialist tool when the work needs it.

Title, slug, excerpt, cover, body, author, category and tags without a maze of CMS settings.

Hosted post URLs

Every published article receives its own LM route for search, sharing and citation.

Wix RSS import

Import what the legacy RSS feed actually exposes while preserving the original source URL.

RSS

Every public LM Blog has its own RSS feed for distribution and future automation.

The working room

The tools stay close to the story.

SHARED LMOS ENGINES · 2026.09.18

This app plugs into LMOS. It does not rebuild the operating system.

LM Blogger only uses the shared capabilities its job actually needs. Accounts, projects, people, tasks, files, notifications and other system services remain one ecosystem underneath the app.

View the LMOS System Map
Identity + AccessAccounts, profiles, roles and permissions.

One LM identity follows the person across apps.

Projects + FoldersParent projects, specialist workspaces, folders and archive lifecycle.

The project is bigger than the app.

Organizations + Teams + PermissionsCompanies, teams, members, clients, reviewers, leads and project roles.

Share one membership model instead of rebuilding collaborators per app.

Tasks + Work QueueAssignments, due dates, status, handoffs and My Tasks.

Work created in an app can surface in the same personal and team queue.

LM Files + ReferencesSmall hosted assets plus references to local/Drive media.

Host what is inexpensive and useful; reference heavy originals.

People + CRMLeads, contacts, relationships, follow-up status and history.

Apps create context; the person record should not fragment.

ConversationsPrivate project/team chat, direct collaboration and public/member conversation where appropriate.

Internal staff channels never reuse public comments, and one shared conversation layer should follow project access.

Notifications + ActivityPush, in-app activity and attention signals.

The user should have one place to see what needs attention.

Publishing + DistributionPublic pages, blogs, channels and release destinations.

Create privately; publish intentionally.

Metrics + ReportingReal activity, progress and outcome metrics.

Only show data LMOS can actually verify.

LMOS IntelligenceLMOS (Limos), project-aware guidance, writing and specialist assistance.

One intelligence layer, context-scoped tools, explicit cost controls.

Plans + EntitlementsTrials, lifetime access, member tiers and app/AI entitlements.

One entitlement system should gate shared capabilities consistently.

LAUNCH PRICING

Try it inside your 7-day LMOS trial.

One trial opens every working LMOS app. Test the full ecosystem first, then keep this app, choose an LMOS bundle, or walk away. The Founding Creator Beta keeps the working app catalog visible without billing, while limited-access project/file caps prevent unlimited creation. At launch, the same principle continues through the seven-day trial and lifetime/free grants.
7 days free · limited active files/projectsAfter beta, open the full app for seven days. LM Script, LM Song, LM Blogger and LM Office allow up to three active projects; deeper writing systems such as books/courses begin with one.
