ADD MEMBERS GADGET TO BLOG


ADD MEMBERS GADGET TO BLOG


First step is to sign up at Google Friend Connect. Then get the code for the Members Gadget. It will look something like this :

<!-- Include the Google Friend Connect javascript library. -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.google.com/friendconnect/script/friendconnect.js"></script>
<!-- Define the div tag where the gadget will be inserted. -->
<div id="div-1236939855410" style="width:282px;border:1px solid #cccccc;"></div>
<!-- Render the gadget into a div. -->
<script type="text/javascript">
var skin = {};
skin['HEIGHT'] = '385';
skin['BORDER_COLOR'] = '#cccccc';
skin['ENDCAP_BG_COLOR'] = '#e0ecff';
skin['ENDCAP_TEXT_COLOR'] = '#333333';
skin['ENDCAP_LINK_COLOR'] = '#0000cc';
skin['ALTERNATE_BG_COLOR'] = '#ffffff';
skin['CONTENT_BG_COLOR'] = '#ffffff';
skin['CONTENT_LINK_COLOR'] = '#0000cc';
skin['CONTENT_TEXT_COLOR'] = '#333333';
skin['CONTENT_SECONDARY_LINK_COLOR'] = '#7777cc';
skin['CONTENT_SECONDARY_TEXT_COLOR'] = '#666666';
skin['CONTENT_HEADLINE_COLOR'] = '#333333';
google.friendconnect.container.setParentUrl('/' /* location of rpc_relay.html and canvas.html */);
google.friendconnect.container.renderMembersGadget(
 { id: 'div-XXXXXXXXXXXXX',
   site: 'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX' },
  skin);
</script>


In above code change :

style="width:282px;

to 282px to 100% and also change the hex colors :

skin['BORDER_COLOR'] = '#cccccc';
skin['ENDCAP_BG_COLOR'] = '#e0ecff';
skin['ENDCAP_TEXT_COLOR'] = '#333333';
skin['ENDCAP_LINK_COLOR'] = '#0000cc';
skin['ALTERNATE_BG_COLOR'] = '#ffffff';
to match your site design. Change the height of the gadget  by modifying '385' in :


skin['HEIGHT'] = '385';

Then save the gadget.





GADGET APPEARS ON SPECIFIC PAGE ONLY


We do not want the gadget to appear on every page. We want it to appear only on the 'Blog Members' page. For this we use the power of conditional tags. The first step is to get the permalink of the Blog Members post published in Step 1 above. Look in the Blog Archives gadget as the post was backdated. Click the post link to open the post page. Copy the link from the address bar. It looks like this in my example :

http://www.blogdoctor.me/2007/03/blog-members.html




Then we have to modify the widget code. Login at Blogge.com and click Layouts link on dashboard. Then click Edit Html subtab of Layout tab. Click on Expand Widgets Template checkbox at top of Template Code box. Wait for page to refresh. Scroll down to the code for the Blog Members gadget. It will look like something this :

<b:widget id='HTML28' locked='false' title='BLOG MEMBERS' type='HTML'>
<b:includable id='main'>
<b:if cond='data:blog.url == "http://www.blogdoctor.me/2007/03/blog-members.html"'>
  <!-- only display title if it's non-empty -->
  <b:if cond='data:title != &quot;&quot;'>
    <h2 class='title'><data:title/></h2>
  </b:if>
  <div class='widget-content'>
    <data:content/>
  </div>
<b:include name='quickedit'/>
</b:if>
</b:includable>
</b:widget>


Put in the two lines in bold as shown above. In the first line :


<b:if cond='data:blog.url == "http://www.blogdoctor.me/2007/03/blog-members.html"'>

Put the permalink of your Blog Members post obtained in Step 1. Do not forget to put in the second line :

</b:if>

in exactly same place in the widget code. Save Template. As you can see the Members gadget showing all the present members appears only on this post.

Add Content with RSS Feeds.


Add Content with RSS Feeds.

To Add Content to your blog with RSS feeds.........

First find the RSS Feed Icon. On many sites it is shown as "RSS" or "About Feeds". The icons are shown alongside. 
Right click any one of these and select 'Copy Link Location'. Now you have to convert the feed into Javascript code. There are many such convertors online which you can find simply by searching Google. One such convertor is located at : http://itde.vccs.edu/rss2js/build.php. Go there and paste your feed url into the text box under 'Enter the web address of the RSS Feed'. Choose among the various options for the feed. Whether you want the title to be displayed etc... Then click 'Preview' to see if the feed is being generated. If the feed url is correct it will show items and content from the web page where you took the feed url from. If you are satisfied click 'Generate Javascript'. Javascript code is generated along with non javascript code which displays the feed on browsers without Javascript. Go back to your beta blog. Login to the Dashboard and click on Layouts under the name of your blog you want to add the feed to. The Page Elements page opens. Click on Add Page Element in the sidebar and choose HTML/Javascript in the popup window which opens. Paste the Javascript code in the content box and Save Changes. You can also add this to a Page Element in the Main Column of postings but then your feed will appear on all your posts. If you add it in the sidebar it will only appear once on the page.

WARNING :
1) Before taking content from other websites be sure to resd their Terms of Use for feeds. 2)You can fill your webpage with feeds but the Adsense bots are not able to read the content generated by them, so it is ineffective with Adsense. 3) You can use the Feed widget already present in the choices in the popup window which opens when you click on 'Add Page Element' in Page Elements page. However it will deliver only a maximum of five posts and titles whereas you can configure the feed in the above process to deliver all the posts.


You can also add a feed of your blog to your sidebar so that it shows all the posts titles. The URL of your beta blog's feed is :

http://yourblogname.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/full

Instead of 'yourblogname' type the name of your blog.


You can also add RECENT COMMENTS to the sidebar by using comment feeds URL which are

http://yourblogname.blogspot.com/feeds/comments/TYPE

Instead of 'yourblogname' type the name of your blog. Instead of TYPE use summary or full.

Make Money with Inline Adsense for Bloggers!


Make Money with Inline Adsense for Bloggers!

Blogger has now made it possible for you to make even more money! You can now add Inline Adsense advertisements between your blog posts.


As we have seen before you can add Adsense Ads. by selecting the Adsense Widget when adding widgets to your blog. If you want to include channel information also copy and paste the Adsense code into a Html Page Element.


Now with this method (Inside AdSense: Get inline) you can add Adsense Ads. between your blog posts inline with them. To do this login at Blogger.com and click on 'Layouts' link for your blog. In the Page Elements tab click on 'Edit' link in the Blog Posts widget. Scroll down in the popup window and check the box next to Show Ads Between Posts. You can then select how often you'd like your ads to appear, such as once after every post or once after every other post.


It also allows you to Customize your Adsense Ads. After customizing save the changes. At the moment search boxes and referral units cannot be added in this fashion. Since the optimum method is to have most of your Ads. above 'the fold' ( which is the viewable area of the screen when you open a site without having to scroll down ) use the Expandable Summaries hack to show only a summary of your posts on the Main Page with a 'Read More' link to the full post.


Using this method your posts on the Main Page will only contain a sentence or two and thus more posts and Adsense will be seen above the fold.

So if you're on another site and enounter a button that says [+Blogger] or [Add to Your Blog] click on such a button, you should be prompted to log in to Blogger (if you aren't already logged in) and then you can select one of your blogs. You'll also see the title, content and template for the new page element, which you can edit if you want. A logo and "more info" link may also be present to tell you more about where this page element comes from, who created it, and what it does.

By clicking the [Add Page Element] button on this screen, you will be adding code to your blog. So it's important to make sure you either trust the source of this code, or have reviewed it to make sure it's something you're willing to have on your blog.

Boring With Error Message "Widget IDs Should Be Unique


Boring With Error Message "Widget IDs Should Be Unique" ?

Possibly you ever have the pip when doing Edit HTML at your template code always experience of failure with error message like this : 


We were unable to save your template. 

Please correct the error below, and submit your template again. 

    More than one widget was found with id: HTML1. Widget IDs should be unique.


Or maybe like this: 

We were unable to save your template. 

Please correct the error below, and submit your template again. 

    More than one widget was found with id: Feed1. Widget IDs should be unique.


Error message is same , the different only at ID, that is HTML1 and Feed1. And that is just an example, ID which emerge possibly HTML2HTML3HTML4 etc, or possibly also Feed2Feed3Feed4 etc. Possibly you will feel to confuse with this error message, because you can't edit your template code. The questionpossibly emerge that is what do cause can emerge the error message like that? if I may answer possible it be like this : error message emerge because in your template code is have two widgets or more with same ID. Still confuse? I give an example. For example in your template code have widget code be like this : 

<div id='sidebar-wrapper'>
<b:section class='sidebar' id='upsidebar' preferred='yes'>
<b:widget id='HTML1' locked='false' title='' type='HTML'/>
<b:widget id='HTML4' locked='false' title='' type='HTML'/>
<b:widget id='HTML3' locked='false' title='' type='HTML'/>
</b:section>
<b:section class='sidebar' id='sidebar1' preferred='yes'>
<b:widget id='HTML5' locked='false' title='Belajar buat website' type='HTML'/>
<b:widget id=''HTML1' locked='false' title='Free Download' type='HTML'/>
<b:widget id='BlogArchive1' locked='false' title='Arsip Blog' type='BlogArchive'/>
<b:widget id='HTML6' locked='false' title='' type='HTML'/>
<b:widget id='HTML7' locked='false' title='Yang mampir' type='HTML'/>
<b:widget id='HTML8' locked='false' title='Site feed' type='HTML'/>
<b:widget id='HTML9' locked='false' title='' type='HTML'/>
<b:widget id='HTML10' locked='false' title='' type='HTML'/>
</b:section> 


At the example above seen two widget codes with the same ID, that is HTML1 (attention the red letter): 


<b:widget id='HTML1' locked='false' title='' type='HTML'/>

<b:widget id='HTML1' locked='false' title='Free Download' type='HTML'/>



If the case such as the example, of course you can't Saving your template code because it will always error. What must be doing if the case like that? you must change one of widget ID with diffrent ID. Example : change HTML1 with HTML15 or other number, but the number must be different with other widget ID. 


<div id='sidebar-wrapper'>
<b:section class='sidebar' id='upsidebar' preferred='yes'>
<b:widget id='HTML1' locked='false' title='' type='HTML'/>
<b:widget id='HTML4' locked='false' title='' type='HTML'/>
<b:widget id='HTML3' locked='false' title='' type='HTML'/>
</b:section>
<b:section class='sidebar' id='sidebar1' preferred='yes'>
<b:widget id='HTML5' locked='false' title='Belajar buat website' type='HTML'/>
<b:widget id='HTML1' locked='false' title='Free Download' type='HTML'/>
<b:widget id='BlogArchive1' locked='false' title='Arsip Blog' type='BlogArchive'/>
<b:widget id='HTML6' locked='false' title='' type='HTML'/>
<b:widget id='HTML7' locked='false' title='Yang mampir' type='HTML'/>
<b:widget id='HTML8' locked='false' title='Site feed' type='HTML'/>
<b:widget id='HTML9' locked='false' title='' type='HTML'/>
<b:widget id='HTML10' locked='false' title='' type='HTML'/>
</b:section> 


You just change one of widget ID with different number, example : HTML1 changed with HTML15, for example : 


<div id='sidebar-wrapper'>
<b:section class='sidebar' id='upsidebar' preferred='yes'>
<b:widget id='HTML1' locked='false' title='' type='HTML'/>
<b:widget id='HTML4' locked='false' title='' type='HTML'/>
<b:widget id='HTML3' locked='false' title='' type='HTML'/>
</b:section>
<b:section class='sidebar' id='sidebar1' preferred='yes'>
<b:widget id='HTML5' locked='false' title='Belajar buat website' type='HTML'/>
<b:widget id='HTML15' locked='false' title='Free Download' type='HTML'/>
<b:widget id='BlogArchive1' locked='false' title='Arsip Blog' type='BlogArchive'/>
<b:widget id='HTML6' locked='false' title='' type='HTML'/>
<b:widget id='HTML7' locked='false' title='Yang mampir' type='HTML'/>
<b:widget id='HTML8' locked='false' title='Site feed' type='HTML'/>
<b:widget id='HTML9' locked='false' title='' type='HTML'/>
<b:widget id='HTML10' locked='false' title='' type='HTML'/>
</b:section>
