Hello,

You can use the IDataEvent from the EventHub and check for the item type - whether it is a blog item - this will be called on every operation.

Please consult following documentation for additional information:
http://docs.sitefinity.com/for-developers-idataevent

eg.

private void Content_Action(IDataEvent @event)

var action = @event.Action;

var contentType = @event.ItemType;

if (contentType == TypeResolutionService.ResolveType("Telerik.Sitefinity.Blogs.Model.BlogPost"))

// do something

var itemId = @event.ItemId;

var providerName = @event.ProviderName;

var manager = ManagerBase.GetMappedManager(contentType, providerName);

var item = manager.GetItemOrDefault(contentType, itemId);

Additionally there is also following KB article on :

Hello Anand,

Once you get the blogpost, you can manage the custom field you need, as described in the sample here:
