Blogger Magic - Adding Label Search URLs

By
One of the simplest ways to make a blog useful is to add label searches. Adding label searches, in page / post text, is not easy - unless you know how to build the URLs. Here's a label search from this blog. http://blogging.nitecruzr.net/search/label/Blogger%20Magic All that I want, when using that label search, is to add another reference to my "Blogger Magic" post series. " Blogger Magic " emphasises how easy it is, to use Blogger. How easy is it, to remember that syntax - to add a label link? Maybe, a " Blogger Magic " reference, in this post?

Tab / Window Management Is Controlled By Our Readers

By
Some blog owners are confused about the use of the "new window" link modifier target="_blank" and think that it gives them uncontrolled powers over the readers browsing experience, when visiting their blog. I want to select "new tab", rather than "new window", for all my blog links. and I want my links to open in a new window, regardless of how my readers setup their browsers. And both of these concepts ignore the personal needs of the blog readers.

Hidden Linklists

By
This lets you, the blog reader, decide whether you want to see the BlogRoll / LinkList . You select the LinkList view that pleases you, not the blog owner. So, how does it work? LinkList Hidden Here you see no linklist. LinkList Shown Here you see the linklist, as you would normally do. (Question): This rocks! So, Chuck, how do I get this into my blog? For the answer, see Adding CumulusLinkList Code Into Your Blog . Note that, unlike MultiStyle Labels (which support only one labels widget), Hidden Linklists support multiple linklist widgets in your blog. This necessitates very careful coding, so follow the Cumulus instructions religiously.

Make All Links Open In A New Window

By
If you compose your blog, as I do, with lots of links to other blogs and web sites, you may make it convenient for your readers to view those other blogs or web sites then return to your blog. Instead of viewing the other blog or web site in the same window, you open the other blog or web site in a new window. When your reader finishes viewing the other blog or web site, he / she simply closes the new window. The article that he or she was reading, in your blog, is right there in front of them. You can, similarly, do this with pictures. If you want your reader to view a picture, then return to the text in your article, you open the picture in a new window . Instead of coding each individual link to a blog, picture, or web site, you can make all links within your blog open in a new window. Simply add a " <base target='_blank' /> " to your blog, in the header. Find <head> And change that to: <head> <base target='_blank' /> But, consi...

Image Test

By
My apologies for the name of the post. "Image Test" is a good example of post title drift. This started out as an attempt to see if I could upload a picture , then I added examples and more points. Now, it's a tutorial, for one of the easiest, yet sometimes least obvious, way to make your blog user friendly. Using images in your blog is easy, but using them effectively takes a bit of thinking. Maybe this article will make you think. What I'll include here is several examples of simple but effective uses of images in a blog. After each example, I'll include the code, character for character (with exception to the note , below) used to create that example. A URL . A Hyperlink . A Hyperlink, With A Hidden URL . A Hyperlink, With A Visible URL . A Hyperlink, With The Target Opening In A New Window . A Picture, Embedded In The Post . A Picture, Displayed Externally . A Picture, Displayed Externally, Opening In A New Window . A Button . A Button, With...
