Blog entry template type?

I want to change hyperlink colors in my blog entries. I followed the excellent instructions I found here and edited the blog template to make the hyperlinks blue. But only the links on the main blog page were affected. Which template do I have to edit to change the colors for blog entries? Thanks.
David

Looking around on some of the sites linked from posts in this forum, I found the answer to my question. In case anyone else has this question: the blog template file contains the settings for all three blog page types (main, entry and archive).

Adding a "forward to friend" link on blog entries?

I've setup a blog for myself using iWeb '08. Is it possible to add a link that readers can use to forward my blog entries to their friends?
Ideally, this feature would forward both my blog entry and a link back to my site, which is similar to the forwarding feature on the nytimes.com website.

I've discovered that feedburner has a service called feedflare that will insert "Email Article" links into your blog. It seems to be what I'm looking for, but I can't make it work. I'd be quite grateful to anyone who can point me in the right direction.
I'm supposed to enter in the following code into every blog entry:
<script src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~s/myfeeduri?
spaceUrl=http://feeds.feedburner.com/~s/myfeeduri?i=POST-URL-HERE" type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"></script>
I tried doing this and replaced "myfeeduri" with "mydomain". I am also supposed to replace "POST-URL-HERE" with "your blog’s template tags to dynamically insert the URL of the current post. " What would that tag be for an iWeb created blog?
I pasted the code into iWeb using the HTML snippet function thinking that the links would at least show up when I published to my site (even though they wouldn't be working) but there was nothing there.
Many thanks to anyone who can help me out with this one.

Issue with AjaxControlToolkit for SharePoint 2013 Blog site template.

Hi,
Please find below the details of issue -
History - We are working with SharePoint 2013 and we are using AjaxControlToolkit in our project. Basically this is a migration project from MOSS to SharePoint 2013. So we have migrated code MOSS to SharePoint 2013. Previously in MOSS project, AjaxControlToolkit
was used so after migrating we have also used AjaxControlToolkit with updated version which can work in SharePoint 2013. This is working fine now.
Scenario - There is one web application in SharePoint 2013 farm. Under this web application there are two site collections. One site collection is created with Team site template and second site collection is created with Blog site template.
There are three feature in our wsp that we have created. One feature is at web application scope (which will do web.config modifications and it will add below entry in web.config file through SPWebConfigModification in section 'configuration/system.web/compilation/assemblies'
<add assembly="AjaxcontrolToolkit, Version=4.5.7.725, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=28f01b0e84b6d53e" />
). And there are two site collection features.
Now when we deploy our solution (wsp) to web application in SharePoint 2013 farm and activate the Web.Config modification feature which is at web application level, it has added above mentioned entry in web.config file.
Our application in first site collection is working fine which we are expecting but in the second site collection which is created using out of box Blog site template, 'comment box' and Post button are invisible as shown in below screen shot -
If we remove below entry from web.config file -
<add assembly="AjaxcontrolToolkit, Version=4.5.7.725, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=28f01b0e84b6d53e" />
and refresh the Blog site page then the Comment box and Post button is appearing again as shown in below screen shot -
We also tried with updated versions of AjaxControlToolkit (Version=4.5.7.1005 & 4.5.7.1213) but no success.
I will highly appreciate if you could help me in this.
Thanks for your time.
Thanks & Regards,
Rajendra Gaikwad.

Hi,
As you said, the issue only comes with the Blog site template.
I suggest you take a look at this blog about how to make Ajax Control Toolkit work with SharePoint 2013:

Blog summary page echoes blog entry but not the pic...?

My blog summary page echoes my blog entries' text but not the image file. I either get the stock photo that comes in the template, or no image at all. What's wrong?

Never mind folks...Once I submitted this, I found an identical query in the "More LIke This" box at the side of this page that gave me my answer. I have another question now that I'll pose in a new thread...

Help, my new Blog entries, since iLife '08 upgrade, don't show ANY text!

Ever since upgrading to iLife '08, my new Blog entries do not show any of the text once it is uploaded to the server. In fact, all of my recent Blog entries now have all thier text gone when viewed online. Only Blog pages in "Archives" are still normal. What gives?! They all look good in iWeb, but not live. Thanks for your help. Wayne
[email protected]

Hi Cedric. I went ahead and took down all recent changes to my site, and then just re-uploaded my last good set-up from iLife 2006. I think iLife 2008 changes how blog pages are addressed. As an example, my two most recent good entries show on the web as:
http://waynelhenderson.com/Blog/693901ED-99E6-42D3-8AA9-7F8338989B47.html
http://waynelhenderson.com/Blog/629035FF-E021-4B9D-AFE5-D091583E0676.html
Notice the long string of numbers, letters, and dashes, after the word /Blog/? My iWeb in iLife 2008 no longer puts those types of strings at the end of /Blog/. Instead, the Blog web entries show as:
http://waynelhenderson.com/Blog/Entries/2007/10/26Tuning_In_With_Wayne_Henderson_podcast_39_%26_40%2C_by_Wayne_Henderson_Voice-ove rs(206)984-1446iPhone_GreenpeacePackers!.html (before I took it down because it wasn't working right).
Could the fact that instead of the string of number, letters, and dashes after /Blog/, my iLife '08 uses "/Blog/Entries/2007/10/26_Tu....etc" have anything to do with my problem of text not showing?
I've always used the same fonts, sizes, and colors. But now it's not working. What is weird, however, is that if I did Select All, and Copy and Paste the web page contents onto Notepad...the text IS THERE...just not showing on the web.
Argh!
Wayne

Publishing One Blog Entry At a Time

I am going to use my website and blog page for a class I am going to teach, and I will use my blog page to assign journal assignments. I would like to do some of these in advance, but I only want to publish one entry at a time. Does that make sense? Can I do such a thing?
Thanks!

I don't think you can selectively withhold the publication of blog entries — once they're created, they're all published next time you publish.
Problems with iWeb's blog are a recurring theme on these forums and it's advisable not to use it for important projects — or perhaps for anything! ...For a success story with a non-iWeb blog hosted on WordPress, see this old thread:
To blog or not to blog
And to link to an external blog from iWeb's navbar:
Create a blank internal page titled "Blog" (Actually you can name the page whatever you want.) Then in that Blog page add an HTML Snippet with the following code:
<script type="text/javascript">
parent.window.location = "http://www.yourblogname.com"; // change this to your own URL
</script>
...Once published, clicking on "Blog" in the navbar will immediately redirect to your external Blog page. (Thanks to Cyclosaurus for the code).
Since teaching often involves "social networking", you may find web-based Ning provides some useful functionality:

Restrictions on the size of blog entry

When I publish a blog entry 200 words about it is appeared properly. But if I write a great article, I see only a blank space on the blog page. But on the front page of the blog in summary form, everything is fine. Does anyone know what is the problem.

You might take a look at your System Profiler description of the machine. Select "About this Mac" from the Apple menu, then click the "More Info" button (at least that's what is says in Tiger). Or you can just launch System Profiler from the Utilities folder.
In either event, you will open to a Hardware Overview like this (except yours will be for the laptop)
Hardware Overview:
Machine Name:          Power Mac G5
Machine Model:          PowerMac7,2

Number Of CPUs:          2

Memory:          5 GB
Bus Speed:          1 GHz
Boot ROM Version:          5.1.4f0
(Note, if you post, do not post your machine's serial number, which will be in the display.)
That being said, my TiBook from 2003 now has a 160G Hitachi Travelstar in it, which was the largest IDE little drive I could get at the time. If your machine is in that time frame or newer, you can put in pretty much anything they make now. Of course, if it is truly a MacBook, then the SATA laptop drives are getting very big.
You can get some more information at this OWC link which will allow you to see how big an IDE drive you can put into a G5 PowerBook.

Photos in text of blog entry do not port to main blog page

I have posted before about the photos from my entry page disappearing when ported to my main blog page. I have yet to find a solution so I'm asking for help again.
I'm am trapped using iWeb 1.1 until I find a solution. I use the Modern Template with modifications. Usually I delete the snowboarding surfer placeholder. Please note I'm not concerned that this photo doesn't port. I don't want it to. I do however need the photos that I have embedded via text wrap within my blog entry to port to the main blog page. They do not.
I have tried keeping the snowboarder place holder and redoing entries with wrapped text, but my additional photos are still missing. I have checked the box in iWeb 2 that says show photos. My layouts conveted to iWeb 2 look perfect on the entry's page, and horrible with missing photos on the summary page.
This problem is beyond frustrating. My blog can be seen here, however it is still the iWeb 1.1 format.
http://web.mac.com/knittsings/iWeb/knittsings/knittsings/knittsings.html
As you can see, almost all my entries have numerous photos. I want them to display on the main blog page.
Am I missing something very basic? I have seen others with this same question but no one seems to have had any luck resolving this problem.
Thanks,
Kathryn

And that's the way it should be.
If you look at this page about navigation you'll see that the main navigation uses eternal links and the sub navigation internal ones....

How to publish blog entries without dates on Iweb?

Hi,I'm very new to Iweb and would appreciate some help.
Is there an option for me to post my blog entries without having to show the dates the blog entries are created on the site? I just want the titles to e shown but not the dates.. I deleted the dates on the template but after publishing, the dates still show..
Thanks

Have a look here to see if it will help you...
http://roddymckay.com/Satellite/Slideshow.html
This is done with PostCard but its the same procedure.
You might also want to look at JAlbum...
http://jalbum.net/
Their "chameleon" template is very similar and allows you to create a link back to your site. Its freeware and they now offer you free server space too!
You don't have to use "Made on a Mac" (or any other stuff) - just delete it and add your own footer with your copyright information.

Necessary to re-build every blog entry????

So I am a novice computer user. I was able to design and publish my site on iweb. Very happy with the results. except.... do i really need to re-build every blog entry i make? when i add a new entry, I basically have to start from scratch everytime. doesn't seem like an efficent useof my time.... hoping there is a way to save my template so i would only have to update the content and not the page itself.
also wondering if it is possible to manage and upload my site from multiple computers?
thanks in advance for any help.

Does changing the RSS excerpt length of blog entries really work?

Hello,
Due to various problems[1] with the RSS feed contents that iWeb produces for blog entries I would like to limit each excerpt in the RSS feed to a small portion of the blog entry to encourage readers to visit the full post on my website. The iWeb help says that adjusting the "Excerpt Length" in the Blog portion of the Inspector will adjust the excerpt length on the blog summary page and in the RSS file. But no matter what I choose for the Excerpt Length, the text of the entire entry goes into the RSS file.
Has anyone else had any success in limiting the contents of the RSS feed? Is this a bug in the program or in the help text?
Thanks in advance for any help that you can provide!
-Jason

Sorry for replying to my own post, but I forgot to mention the problems I've had with the contents of RSS feeds of an iWeb blog:
1. inline images don't make it to the RSS feed, just the template default image (which I know how to replace, but sometimes I want more images in a blog entry)
2. hash characters (aka "number sign" or "pound sign" or "#") in a link URL get UTF-8 encoded to %2523 which browsers and/or servers don't seem to like. I discovered that when directly linking to a particulary .Mac Web Gallery album. The link works fine from the blog page, but not from the RSS feed. <sigh>

Posting Podcast file to user blog entry

Hello,
I have a Apple Xserve (originally running Tiger) that was running a blog for some podcasting training that I was doing with some faculty at our high school. Faculty could subscribe to the podcast/blog in iTunes using the link provided for them automatically on the blog page. This was working fine and would update the podcast subscription for the faculty user as postings were added.
I got my Leopard cd in the mail for the Xserve. The faculty were ready for students (high school seniors) to start working/posting podcasts, the next step for podcasting in our district. I took an afternoon and did the Leopard install in hopes that we might also use the wiki/shared calendar offerings available in Leopard.
I did a standard install for the Leopard server, set up the users and groups, and then starting posting to the newly created user blogs. In the blog for the seniors, I enabled the podcast blog setting. The blog shows a Subscribe in iTunes link which opens iTunes and subscribes the visitor to the podcast. However, it will not load any of the podcast/blog entries into iTunes.
With the help of John Slaughter at Notre Dame, I was able to see that apparently the RSS feed is not parsing the "Subscribe to iTunes" URL correctly. John noticed that "Well, Safari agrees that it's an RSS feed. Not a valid one, but it does load. I wonder what's up with the " <div class="wiki_entry">" in the source code (which gets parsed out to div class="wiki_entry" in the browser.) Are they pasting the Quicktime HTML code into the body of the blog itself or using the upload feature? Because the blog will convert all "<"
On a related note, when posting a new entry to a blog, I cannot use the Podcast upload feature to upload the podcast file. It just hangs. I can add the file to the blog post by using the "Insert images, audio, or Quicktime movies" button in blog entry area.
You can see the blog here
http://podcast.forrest.k12.ms.us/users/nfhsseniors/blog/
I would appreciate any direction/advice on how to 1) get the Podcast upload to work, and 2) get the iTunes subscription to start pulling in the postings. I want to get this available and publicized soon so that our students can show off their work publicly.
Thanks,
Dane

Hi Dane,
I have exactly the same problem. Plus I'm finding it difficult to make progress... Sounds as though we were the same - happily running podcasts under the old system. Upload a file and use RSS Podcast to subscribe. Apparently this was running software called Blojsom.
Apple have changed to their own stuff. It was even difficult for me to find where the old blogs were and to reinstate them - but at least I got them up, trouble is now iTunes won't work because of the RSS feed problem. In fact as the RSS is now so well hidden away it gives me a headache as I had a lot of other things using it - even a mobile phone service linked to the podcast..
Now I can't subscribe or post a podcast up - I get a spinning wheel while it says it's uploading the podcasting material and stops at that. I have all the the right settings switched on to podcast etc, and followed all the other stuff about DNS to the letter.
One of our issues is that we are not using podcast producer (so I found nothing in that discussion group) - which is an automated workflow make-a podcast-as-you-go type thing, we just want to put up a media file (mp4 etc) and have it podcast. Yep it still shows the blog:
http://podcast.ycoastco.ac.uk/users/admin/
but it no longer podcasts or accepts files to be podcast.
I'm sorry that this is no help apart from empathy across the atlantic but I do have a good Apple guy looking at it for me - I'll keep you posted.
kind regards
Mick

Image from blog entry page not showing up on 'home' page of blog

My first blog entry went well. I created a blog first page, then created an entry, and dragged a picture to that entry. I saved, published, and all looked great. Even the comment area worked. But when I created a second entry page, and dragge a picture to it, and saved, the photo is not showing up on that first page of the blog, the one that reads like a list only with a picture and teaser part of the entry...See http://web.me.com/brendatharp1/brendatharpblog/OnTheRoad/OnTheRoad.html
The entry listing is there on the first page, and when you click on the title link, it takes you to the entry page and the photos are there. I noticed that on the first page, the Sept 13th entry with photo is inside a text box of sorts - this was the layered paper template I used and then modified. Dbl-clicking to make that box interactive shows the black floating box for dealing with the placement of the photo in that list; but that box only relates to that one photo from the 13th. If I drag and drop the 15th's photo there, it just sits over the text and doesn't interact. AND I didn't have to do that with the first entry. Any ideas out there? Thanks much, Brenda.

Does this thread help http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1711038&tstart=15
I have experienced this and it was because I removed the placeholder and just added the image on the entry page. I duplicate blog entries and delete content to add new stuff so don't have to reformat every time, if you do that don't remove the image just add on the top - it should replace the previous image. Hope this helps, it is frustrating at times but the more you learn the easier it becomes.

Maximum Number of Blog Entries on the Main Blog Page

I would like to increase the number of Blog entries on my Main Blog page beyond the limit of 50 allowed through the Inspector Panel in iWeb 09. Does anyone know a work-around to this limitation?
Thanks, -JAS

Try creating a new blog page that looks identical to the current blog you have. Then once you start a new blog on the new blog template you just created, simply make a button or text link to your other blog. If I'm not mistaken you can create as many blog templates as you wish.
Please let me know if I'm wrong.

New blog entries experience "error updating .Mac", and no "add comments"

Blog always worked fine. Now new blog entries get error updating .Mac message. New post does appear online, but there is no Add Comments option, despite it being selected in the inspector. Also, the blog main page doesn't show a title in the title bar at top. Might this have something to do with the new Mobile Me features (which I haven't tried or signed up for). When I delete the new posting and publish, it publishes fine. This error even happens with the template pg, so it's not anything to do with my formatting. Thanks for your help.

I have not tried publishing a new Blog entry since the new "me" thing, but I did try just a text edit on an existing Entry and republished the Entry. It seemed to function normally.
However, all of my Comments are missing from all my Blog entries - although the hit counts are still there.
And my Slide Shows won;t work and thumbnails won't enlarge on my photo pages.
Everything was working perfectly before this big "improvement" we just got.
I sure hope this is temporary or I just might throw a fit. There was a lot of valuable stuff in those comments, and if there won;t be a Comments function at all, I won't be able to keep my blog at mac. com or me whatever.
Why fix what isn't broken?
