EMERGENCY STEPS
| Kick-starting The Blog |
|---|
| 1. Refresh (F5) or Ctrl-F5
2. Clear cache (delete temporary Internet files) and cookies in Tools-Internet Options. 3. Add a question mark to the end of your blog's internet address in the address box and see if it will show the latest update. (Can also be done with other people's url's in the address window.) 4. Republish (if in classic Blogger) 5. Reboot 6. Log out and log back in again (may change to an untroubled server) 7. Change browser (IE, Firefox, others) ---Not necessary to do all of these at once!--- |
Blogger may make problems for some computers about accepting cookies, especially when you are using the new versions of Internet Explorer or Firefox browsers. Difficulties with accepting scripts may be caused by security systems, antivirus programs, firewalls, and some add-ons. Check all your settings.
You may need to change your browser settings, or to list www.blogger.com and blogger.com as "trusted sites" in your Internet Options-Security so that scripting can occur.

Subscription List--Google Groups
| How Others Subscribe To Your Blog |
|---|
Create the group for your blog. |
Everyone who subscribes will be sent an email copy of each new post, but there are options so you (or other individual subscribers) may select various forms of abridgement instead of the full post.
See Change Email Options In Subscription List
Of course, Blogger already has a "Subscribe to Posts" link at the bottom of the blog. Many people use that.

Unordered List In Sidebar
You have two options: OR
Before I forget, there is a third kind of list; when you just start your list items and don't specify either ordered or unordered, you will get plain bullets (or whatever your CSS specifies)
If you are using a Classic template, you will need a list of this sort for the sidebar. In a Layout template, you'd put the code in a Gadget.
Put this after or at least not inside the other ul lists in the sidebar in the template.
If your template uses a particular "class" for it's titles in the sidebar, just imitate (copy) them in order for your new list titles to match the old ones.
For a second list, if needed, do another title and pair of start and end tags and fill in the middle part.
- Unordered List (with bullets)
- Unordered List (with bullets)
- Ordered list (numbered)
- Ordered list (numbered)
Before I forget, there is a third kind of list; when you just start your list items and don't specify either ordered or unordered, you will get plain bullets (or whatever your CSS specifies)
There is an even newer Blog List type of page element if you're trying to create a BlogRoll and you may find it preferable--it does a very different (and nifty) thing for you!
[More below...]
| (Page Element and Gadget (or Widget) are different names for the same thing--one is more accessible to you (through the Layout page) and the other, in the template, you can go into more deeply as far as editing it IF you know how!) So I prefer the ul or ol list, whose html code I can keep backed up in a Notepad file or other plain-text program, in an html/javascript page element. |

The difference between an unordered list as above and an ordered list which Numbers your list is merely using an ol tag instead of the ul tag!

The Blogger Help-Blogs List
I used to think there were only 3 or 4 such blogs, but it seems to me like there are twenty or more. I'll have to count them on fingers and toes and hope they don't exceed my grasp! Here are the ones that I've heard of, but I won't categorize or put them in any order. I may have included some bad ones or left out some good ones--but I can always revise as I go!

Change A Color In Links List
How To Change An Individual Link's Color
If you are already using Page Elements
and already using a Links List,
Click on your crossed tools for that section in the sidebar.
Then you can edit Configure Link List.
Look for the edit/delete line for the link you wish to change.
What you might see would be two lines for each link, such as
Keep Up With Me
http://www.zandria.us/
Change that first line of the two to blue, for example, thus:
<font color=blue>Keep Up With Me
But use the code as shown below for the above in the edit/delete line:
1. the ampersand (&) followed by "lt;"
2. then "font color=blue",
3. and then the ampersand (&) followed by "gt;"
4. (Don't leave out those semi-colons (;)!
5. Then type in the blog title.
[See very bottom of screenshot for illustration of above.]

It's odd, but that's it. Be sure to click on Save. You will still be on the Configure Links List page.
You can continue to change others in the Links List,
but be sure to Save Changes when completely through!
