Recent Posts with Thumbnails Hack for Blogger edit post

Posted by Bhavika On Wednesday, December 08, 2010 12 comments
recent posts with thumbnailsRecent Posts with Thumbnails is an interesting hack that allows you to display your latest posts in various styles. Of course, Blogger has the Recent Posts with Thumbnails gadget, but this hack gives you more flexibility and options to choose from. Another default Recent Posts widget pulls content from your RSS feed and shows only the post titles.

But thanks to Marianne, who was responsible for this Blogger hack, your site can look great.

Before you make any changes, take a backup of your template from Design --> Edit Html.

Then copy paste the below code in Design --> Page Elements section of your blog.
recent posts with thumbnails horizontal
<script language="JavaScript">
imgr = new Array();


imgr[0] = "http://YOURIMAGEURL.jpg";
imgr[1] = "http://YOURIMAGEURL1.jpg";
imgr[2] = "http://YOURIMAGEURL2.jpg";
imgr[3] = "http://YOURIMAGEURL3.jpg";
imgr[4] = "http://YOURIMAGEURL4.jpg";

showRandomImg = true;

tablewidth = 278;
cellspacing = 8;
borderColor = "#ffffff";
bgTD = "#ffffff";

imgwidth = 100;
imgheight = 80;

fntsize = 11;
acolor = "#666";
aBold = true;
icon = " ";

text = "comments";

showPostDate = false;

summaryPost = 75;
summaryFontsize = 11;
summaryColor = "#666";
icon2 = " ";

numposts = 5;

home_page = "YOUR-BLOG-URL";

</script>
<script src="http://fractalblognetwork.com/blogumus/vertical_title_desc_no_comments.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
To run you through the script, you can add your own image url here 'http://YOURIMAGEURL.jpg' for articles without an image. You can add imgr[1] [2] etc., as per your requirement. You can adjust the image size, background colour, post title colour, summary colour, font size, number of posts to be showed and so on in the code. Add your blog url at the place where it is mentioned in the code and at the end of the code there is a javascript file -'http://fractalblognetwork.com/blogumus/vertical_title_desc_no_comments.js' (marked in bold) which can be hosted on your server or any other site.
recent posts with thumbnails and commentsAs mentioned earlier this Recent Posts gives you lot of variations in terms of display, for instance you can have horizontal or vertical display, with or without comments, thumbnails with description etc. I have mentioned below the different javascript files available and based on your choice upload it your server or file hosting sites and add the js link in the above code and save the changes.

- Recent posts in horizontal position with only thumbnails
- Recent posts in vertical position with only thumbnails
- Recent posts in horizontal position with thumbnails, title, description and comments
- Recent posts in vertical position showing thumbnails, title, description and comments
- Recent posts in horizontal position showing thumbnails, title, description and without comments
- Recent posts in vertical position showing thumbnails, title, description and without comments
- Recent posts in horizontal position showing thumbnails with title, description from any particular label
- Recent posts in vertical position showing thumbnails with title, description from any particular label
- Recent posts in horizontal position showing thumbnails with title, description in between thumbnails instead of below thumbnail

In case of recent posts with thumbnails from any particular label/tags/categories, insert this line in the above code after -

'home_page = "YOUR-BLOG-URL";'

label = "tagname";

Recent Posts with thumbnails hack certainly enhances the look of your blog!

Page Navigation Hack for Blogger edit post

Posted by Clyde On Thursday, October 07, 2010 10 comments
page navigation for bloggerBlogger has had this boring, older post, newer post and home links at the bottom of the page since ages. Many of us have already replaced it with a cool numbering system at the bottom of the page known as page navigation. Please back up your template before proceeding with this hack!

This hack has been given to us by Abu Farhan, not only has he taken the time to give us a hack, he has given us six different designs that we can have to use this hack.

Page Navigation Design 1
Page Navigation Design 1
Page Navigation Design 2
Page Navigation Design 2
Page Navigation Design 3
Page Navigation Design 3
Page Navigation Design 4
Page Navigation Design 4
Page Navigation Design 5
Page Navigation Design 5
Page Navigation Design 6
Page Navigation Design 6

Once you have chosen the design, click on the design number and download the zip file. In the zip file you will find a text file with code. Copy that code, go to your blogger dashboard, design, edit html and look for

]]></b:skin>


Paste the design code before this. You can save your template, your not done yet after that there are a few more steps to do.

Now look for
<b:section class='main' id='main' showaddelement='yes' >
<b:widget id='Blog1' locked='true' title='Blog Posts' type='Blog'/>
</b:section>


Once you find that, add this script below it. The script is in the text file in a zip folder, there are only two lines that you can edit.

Namely,

var pageCount=10;
var displayPageNum=6;

Where 10 is the number of posts on each page you would like to show and 6 is the number of pages you would like to show.

Once thats done, save your template and proceed to the final step.

If you do not have a label gadget on your blog add a label gadget by

Layout –> Page Elements –> Add Gadget –> Select Labels

Then go back to your Edit HTML and look for the code below

<a expr:dir='data:blog.languageDirection' expr:href='data:label.url'><data:label.name/></a>


Once you find that code replace it with the code given here.

Save your changes and take a look at your blog with page navigation enabled!

Hide Ads on a Particular Post or Page edit post

Posted by Clyde On Monday, September 27, 2010 3 comments
Hide ads on blogger postThis was a hack that I always wanted for a long time, especially since most of us have our ads under the headlines of the post which is a very very hot spot :) It does look ugly to an extent and sometimes you would like a particular post or page to look neat, like a contact page or a page displaying some particular art work you would like to sell.

No one had a hack on blogger until recently Geek Blogger came up with one on his best how to blogger.

First, your gonna have to back up your template prior to making any changes. Then the next step is to locate your ad code. Once you have your ad codes you need to put a div code as shown below.

<div id="MyAds1">
Your Ad Code is Here
</div>


Once that is done you can save your template and then go to the post where you would like to hide the ads, at the end of the post paste the code below.

<script type="text/javascript">

var Ads1 = document.getElementById('MyAds1');

Ads1.parentNode.removeChild(Ads1);

</script>


If you have more than one ad on your page then you can hide the one on top as this method does not work to hide two ads. I do hope you liked our second hack from Blogger Blog Templates. Subscribe to get the next hack delivered to your email!

Blogumus, the Flash Tag Cloud is Back edit post

Posted by Clyde On Tuesday, September 14, 2010 37 comments
blogumus the flash tag cloudOver two years ago Amanda from Blogger Buster ported the wordpress cumulus tag cloud to blogger, this flash based tag cloud was and perhaps still is the best tag looking tag cloud for blogger.

Unfortunately this tag cloud stopped functioning for over 6 months, after numerous comments and emails the tag cloud is still non functional.

But today Blogger Blog Templates is giving you a permanent solution for your blogspot flash tag cloud. If you would like to see how it looks take a look at the tag cloud in the sidebar.

Firstly you would require to download two files, right click on the links below and save target as.

swfobject.js

blogumus.swf

Now that you have these two files, upload it on your hosting account and then save the links.

Go to your blogger dashboard -> design -> edit html

Once your there first back up your template.

Now expand widgets and look for this line:

<b:section class='sidebar' id='sidebar' preferred='yes'>


Immediately after this line paste the code given below, though in some templates you may not be able to paste it immediately and will have to scout for a spot where you don't get an error.

<b:widget id='Label99' locked='false' title='Labels' type='Label'>
<b:includable id='main'>
<b:if cond='data:title'>
<h2><data:title/></h2>
</b:if>
<div class='widget-content'>
<script src='Your swfobject.js Link Comes Here' type='text/javascript'></script>
<div id='flashcontent'></div>
<script type='text/javascript'>
var so = new SWFObject("Your blogumus.swf Link Comes Here", "tagcloud", "240", "300", "7", "#ffffff");
// uncomment next line to enable transparency
//so.addParam("wmode", "transparent");
so.addVariable("tcolor", "0x333333");
so.addVariable("mode", "tags");
so.addVariable("distr", "true");
so.addVariable("tspeed", "100");
so.addVariable("tagcloud", "<tags><b:loop values='data:labels' var='label'><a expr:href='data:label.url' style='12'><data:label.name/></a></b:loop></tags>");
so.addParam("allowScriptAccess", "always");
so.write("flashcontent");
</script>
</div>
</b:includable>
</b:widget>


Once you insert this code you need to replace the two links in the code with your own hosting links

Your swfobject.js Link Comes Here

Your blogumus.swf Link Comes Here

Once you change those links you can preview the template, the blogumus widget should appear in your sidebar.

This is very important, if you have an apostrophe or quote character (' or ") in your labels, the tag cloud appears blank.

Certain features of blogumus can be customized:

The width, height and background color can be change from the line below that you will find in the code

"tagcloud", "240", "300", "7", "#ffffff");


where 240 = width, 300 = height and ffffff = back ground color

but you can also have a transparent background where the labels float on your current blog background

look for
//so.addParam("wmode", "transparent");


and remove the
//
and your blogumus will be transparent

if you want to change the text color of the labels look for

so.addVariable("tcolor", "0x333333");

Cameo, the Photo Blogger Template
The template uses a dark colour scheme and plays with light and shadow effect to highlight the images. The header space is utilised for the search box on the extreme right, the blog title along with description and the drop-down menu bar below it. To change the menu links, go to Design--Edit Html and look for this code -

<!-- begin top menu -->
<div class='navIndex'>
<div class='nav'>
<ul>
<li class='current_page_item'><a expr:href='data:blog.homepageUrl' title='Home'>Home</a></li>
<li class='page_item'><a href='#' title='Menu #1'>Menu #1</a></li>
<li class='page_item'><a href='#' title='Menu #2'>Menu #2</a>
<ul>
<li class='page_item'><a href='#' title='Sub Menu #1'>Sub Menu #1</a></li>
<li class='page_item'><a href='#' title='Sub Menu #2'>Sub Menu #2</a></li>
<li class='page_item'><a href='#' title='Sub Menu #3'>Sub Menu #3</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
<!-- end top menu -->
Add the relevant links in the above code. The featured image that appears in a frame below the menu bar, is 900px×310px. In order to change that access Edit Html and look for the following code -

<!-- begin featured image -->
<div id='mBodyHead'>
<div class='wrapper'>
<a href='#' title='Hello world!'><img alt='mainImage' class='attachment-900x9999 wp-post-image' height='310' src='http://www.opendrive.com/files/6803598_GZuBx/mainImage.jpg' title='mainImage' width='900'/></a>
<div class='featureTag'/>
</div>
</div>
<!-- end featured image -->

Change the links at the relevant spots, replace the default opendrive image with your url, add the post url etc. In this template the latest posts are displayed in a thumbnail format with the date stamp, comment and automatic Read More link. On mouse hover the summary gets highlighted, which gives a nice visual effect.

Cameo blog theme also features a widget-ready single sidebar. The links can be edited from Edit Html and you need to look for this code, and add your links right after that -

<!-- begin sidebar menu -->
<div class='sideBar'>
<h3>Navigation</h3>
<div class='box'>
<ul>

This theme also includes 4-column footer where you can place additional blogger widgets.

Gamecraft, the Gaming Blogger Theme edit post

Posted by Bhavika On Wednesday, August 25, 2010 0 comments
After a long time we have a gaming template. Gamecraft is designed by Jinsona Theme and brought to blogger by Cahayabiru.com.
Gamecraft, the Gaming Blogger Theme

Its a 3-column theme which consists an automatic slider, a scroll bar adjacent to it, dual navigation bar and tabber. Let's start with the menu bars, each above and below the header. The first one features a drop-down menu, so you can include all your sections. To activate that, go to Design--Page Elements, click on Edit 'categorymenu' and add the below code -

<li><a href="PARENT-LINK-ADDRESS">PARENT TITLE</a>
<ul class="children">
<li><a href="CHILDREN-LINK-ADDRESS">CHILDREN TITLE</a></li>
<li><a href="CHILDREN-LINK-ADDRESS">CHILDREN TITLE</a></li>
<li><a href="CHILDREN-LINK-ADDRESS">CHILDREN TITLE</a></li>

<li><a href="SUB-PARENT-LINK-ADDRESS">SUB PARENT TITLE</a>
<ul class="children">
<li><a href="CHILDREN-LINK-ADDRESS">CHILDREN TITLE</a></li>
<li><a href="CHILDREN-LINK-ADDRESS">CHILDREN TITLE</a></li>
<li><a href="CHILDREN-LINK-ADDRESS">CHILDREN TITLE</a></li>
<li><a href="CHILDREN-LINK-ADDRESS">CHILDREN TITLE</a></li>

</ul></li></ul>
</li>

<li><a href="PARENT-LINK-ADDRESS">PARENT TITLE</a>
<ul class="children">
<li><a href="CHILDREN-LINK-ADDRESS">CHILDREN TITLE</a></li>
<li><a href="CHILDREN-LINK-ADDRESS">CHILDREN TITLE</a></li>
<li><a href="CHILDREN-LINK-ADDRESS">CHILDREN TITLE</a></li>
</ul></li>

Repeat the code marked in bold in case you want to add more categories.

To add links in the second menu bar, go to Design--Page Elements, click on Edit 'frontmenu' and add the following code -

<li><a href='top-menu-link-address-here' title='hover-top-menu'>YOUR-TOP-TITLE</a></li>
<li><a href='top-menu-link-address-here' title='hover-top-menu'>YOUR-TOP-TITLE</a></li>
<li><a href='top-menu-link-address-here' title='hover-top-menu'>YOUR-TOP-TITLE</a></li>

Place the relevant links and save the changes. For the main slider, go to Design--Page Elements, click on Edit 'big picture slidearea', add the following code with your links -

<div id="feature-1" class="videoid"><a href="YOUR-POST-LINK"><span class="shade"></span></a><img class="slidim" src="IMAGE-LOCATION-HERE" width="630" height="280" alt="" /></div>
<div id="feature-2" class="videoid"><a href="YOUR-POST-LINK"><span class="shade"></span></a><img class="slidim" src="IMAGE-LOCATION-HERE" width="630" height="280" alt="" /></div>
<div id="feature-3" class="videoid"><a href="YOUR-POST-LINK"><span class="shade"></span></a><img class="slidim" src="IMAGE-LOCATION-HERE" width="630" height="280" alt="" /></div>
<div id="feature-4" class="videoid"><a href="YOUR-POST-LINK"><span class="shade"></span></a><img class="slidim" src="IMAGE-LOCATION-HERE" width="630" height="280" alt="" /></div>
<div id="feature-5" class="videoid"><a href="YOUR-POST-LINK"><span class="shade"></span></a><img class="slidim" src="IMAGE-LOCATION-HERE" width="630" height="280" alt="" /></div>

For the mini automatic slider with images and post description on the right, you need to add another code in Design--Page Elements, edit 'Small picture right tab' -

<li><a class="listab rounded" href="#feature-1"><img class="boximage" src="YOUR-IMAGE-URL" width="100" height="70" alt="" /><h3> TITLE-HERE</h3><p> SHORT-DESCRIPTION-HERE. ... </p></a></li>
<li><a class="listab rounded" href="#feature-2"><img class="boximage" src="YOUR-IMAGE-URL" width="100" height="70" alt="" /><h3> TITLE-HERE</h3><p> SHORT-DESCRIPTION-HERE. ... </p></a></li>
<li><a class="listab rounded" href="#feature-3"><img class="boximage" src="YOUR-IMAGE-URL" width="100" height="70" alt="" /><h3> TITLE-HERE</h3><p> SHORT-DESCRIPTION-HERE. ... </p></a></li>
<li><a class="listab rounded" href="#feature-4"><img class="boximage" src="YOUR-IMAGE-URL" width="100" height="70" alt="" /><h3> TITLE-HERE</h3><p> SHORT-DESCRIPTION-HERE. ... </p></a></li>
<li><a class="listab rounded" href="#feature-5"><img class="boximage" src="YOUR-IMAGE-URL" width="100" height="70" alt="" /><h3> TITLE-HERE</h3><p> SHORT-DESCRIPTION-HERE. ... </p></a></li>

Fill in your links at relevant spots and save the changes. While in the main post area, post details like author, date, comments appear at the end of the post. The sidebar includes a tabber that can be customised. Access Design--Edit Html and search for 'EDIT-ME' and add the links you want to display in the tabber, like Recent Posts, Comments ets.

Gamecraft has a decent layout with nice features, although it can take time to load due to the number of images and javascripts. Another gaming theme you might be interested in is Gamezine Template.

Masipag is a 2 column theme originally designed by Paddsolutions and brought to Blogger by Anshul Dudeja. The template has few in-built features and widgets already installed in it. Let's take a look at it.
Masipag Blogger Skin
The header logo can be changed with your blog name by extracting the psd file from the main download folder, open it in photoshop, edit it and upload the logo from header widget in blogger layout. The header space also contains the menu bar for your main categories - Home, Contact and About - which can be changed from Layout-Edit Html, search for the following code and replace all the '#' with the relevant links -

<ul>
<li class='current_page_item'><a href='l'><span class='l'><span class='r'><span class='c'><span><span>Home</span></span></span></span></span></a></li>
<li><a href='#'><span class='l'><span class='r'><span class='c'><span><span>About</span></span></span></span></span></a></li>
<li><a href='#'><span class='l'><span class='r'><span class='c'><span><span>Contact</span></span></span></span></span></a></li>
</ul>

This is followed by a second menu bar to display your blog sections, that has a nice hover-on effect. The main feature of this theme would be the slider that allows you to put up your best or featured posts. To add the images, find the following code in Edit Html and replace # with post url and add your image link as shown in the code below. Repeat the same steps in the next code as well.

<ul class='jcarousel-skin' id='carousel'>

<li><a href='#'><img height='191px' src='IMAGE URL HERE' width='191px'/></a></li>

<li><a href='#'><img height='191px' src='IMAGE URL HERE' width='191px'/></a></li>

<li><a href='#'><img height='191px' src='IMAGE URL HERE' width='191px'/></a></li>

<li><a href='#'><img height='191px' src='IMAGE URL HERE' width='191px'/></a></li>

</ul>

In the main column the post headline is followed by the time stamp and labels on the top and comments on the extreme right. The template also has a related posts widget installed in it, that will appear at the end of each post.

The single sidebar on the right can be used for additional blogger widgets or the default ones like Archives, Labels etc. Masipag also has a 3 column footer space for more content.
