Editing Fonts in Excerpts on Blog Front Page

Is there anyway to edit the look of the way the entries to each of the blog entries appears on the "front page" of the blog?
If you click on it a message says, "This is a list of excerpt from your blog entries. Edit the text on the entry page." The problem is editorial changes made to the fonts - colors & size, for example - do not affect how the list of excerpts look on the front page.
What am I missing? Thanks.

Patricia,
I downloaded and modified your Blog.css file, you can download it here:
http://www.geocities.com/[email protected]/landis_mdi/Blog.css
I changed the font and made the font color darker. You need to do:
1) Locate your Blog.css file in your iDisk, it should be in Blog_files folder.
2) Rename the current Blog.css file to ~Blog.css. In case you would like to reverse the change.
3) Place the modified Blog.css file in Blog_files folder.
Open your main Blog.html and refresh the page to see if that's what you like.

  • Remove/Alter "Read More" on Blog front page

    Is there any way to remove or alter the "Read More" that automatically comes up on the front page of a blog done through iWeb? My posts are all small enough to fit in the space allotted, so there is nothing more to read.

  • Blog front page limited to last 5 posts?

  • Blog front page

    So far I am having sooo many problems with glitches on iWeb.
    Including the fact that on my blog site, it refuses to preview the images that are within the blog. It only shows them for one posting made yesterday.
    What is going on? How can I get these images to show on the main page of my blog?

    Blowing up small pictures usually become blurry.
    Use the original size to display.

  • Blog Summary/Entry-link on front-page?

    Hi all!
    I have a front-page and a blog-page on my newly created iWeb '08 site, and it's working great.
    However I'd like to have my blog-entries show up on the front-page, just the title as a link, that takes you to the blog entry.
    I'd rather not make the blog summary page my front-page, because I like the layout of the front-page, but I'd also like my visitors to be able to quickly go to my blog-posts from the front-page.
    Is this possible, maybe via the new Web Widgets feature? Seems like something a lot of people would want to do, and maybe it's right there in front of me, I just can't seeem to find it
    Another thing: Has anyone made a "iWeb 08 Web Widgets Repository" or something like that? A place to collect and share great Web Widgets for iWeb?

    Use an RSS feeder like feeddigest or your servers own to create a java script that will "scrape" your site. If you don't care what it looks like there are a number of them out there, if you want customization go with feeddigest. You won't get updates very quickly (24 hour turnaround), but it looks better than most.

  • Font changes on Blog main page

    Hi everyone!
    Does any of you know if it is possible, on iWeb Blog main page, to modify the other posts than the first one ? I lowered the size of the text in my posts when editing them, but when appearing on the main page of the blog, they get bigger and it is impossible to edit then.
    Thanks for any help !

  • Can't edit my front page?

  • Is there a Master or Paragraph rule that would allow me to edit fonts on many pages?

    I'm using InDesign CS4.
    I would like to be able to create a header on a Master that would control the font and size of font on each Header on each page.
    On each page, the wording is different, so there can't be wording... 
    The Headings on each page have a different font than the font in the body of the book.
      Is creating a master the best way, or is creating a type of paragraph or paragraph rule the way to go?
    I feel there must be a way to make this happen - so if the font needs to be changed, it can be changed from a master or a rule, not having to go to each and every page...
    Thanks for your help, Lou

    What did I do?
    Not sure.
    What do I do?
    If you still don't have it sorted out, here are some steps to follow, with some assumptions based on info contained in the thread so far:
    Go to your Master Page and set up your header text frame. Type an actual line of text in there, even if it's just "Header goes here" or something like that.
    Format the text the way you want all your headers to look; font, size, etc.
    With the now-formatted text selected, go to the Paragraph Styles panel, (if you don't see it, choose Window > Styles > Paragraph Styles or press Ctrl+F11), and choose New Paragraph Style from the panel menu, (click the menu icon at the top-right corner of the panel to access the panel menu). This will open the Paragraph Style dialog, pre-populated with settings based on your text selection. Give it a name like "Header Left," put a tick on Apply Style to Selection and click OK.
    If you need a Header Right style for the facing Master Page, there are a few ways to get it. Here's one: In the Paragraph Styles panel, right-click on the Header Right style and choose Duplicate Style... to make a copy of it. Now right-click on the new copy and choose Edit Header Right copy... Change its name to Header Left, make whatever other changes you want to the style settings, (primarily Indents and Spacing > Alignment, I should think), and click OK.
    Now you can also duplicate the text frame you made in step 1 by copy/paste or Alt-Drag to the facing page. Put it where you want it and apply the Header Left style.

    Are you sure you are uploading the pages to the correct location?
    Could you post a screen capture of your expanded files window, showing the remote server and local file structures?
    I'm guessing they're not identical and that you may be uploading to a redundant root folder.

  • Dreamweaver 8/Front Page editing

    A quick question for someone...If I build a basic website in
    Dreamweaver 8 and upload it to a server, can it be edited by
    someone else with Front Page, whether they download it from the
    server or I give them directly the files?

    I wouldn't dream of combining DW and FP on the same site.
    And, if the site
    has been built with templates in DW>4, FP won't know what
    to do with the
    template markup. Also, if you have used DW's Library items,
    or Server-side
    includes, FP won't know what to do with them either.
    It's likely to be a long, slow, train wreck.

  • Blog and Pages API?

    I am not seeing an API listed for Blogs or Pages...
    http://developers.businesscatalyst.com/reference/api-endpoints/index.html
    When will these be added if at all?
    Thanks...

    Hi psteil,
    For pages, while we don't have the complete set of API that will allow you to replicate the admin edit page interface, you have the file create, update apis that will allow you to write html files on the site.
    Blogs APIs are not yet exposed, this is something that's going to be worked on towards the end of the year. We're planning to release additional APIs in the second half of the year, but we're more likely going to start with CRM or eCommerce APIs first and then move to other areas of the system.

  • Blog entry didn't show up on blog summary page. ¿Por qué?

    RE: Blog
    Last night I wrote a blog entry, but the first few sentences did NOT show up on the blog summary page. I previously had set the blog entry length to be short (toggled far to the left), but there is a difference between a short length and NO length at all.
    Why do you suppose this happened?
    INFORMATION: Prior to writing the blog entry I was having difficulty with the picture not showing up on the blog entry page, and in trying to edit it and move text around I might have messed up some registration lines, or LINES. Could that have had an effect? I must say that of all the things involved in iWeb, this Blog feature has given me the most problems and made me the angriest. Just thinking about it right now has created a tight knot in my chest.
    Lorna in Southern California

    Go back to your main blog summary page in iWeb. Open
    the Inspector to the RSS tab and slide the text
    excert slider to show ALL (all the way to the right).
    Does ANY of your blog text show up in this
    particular entry?
    .......... Lorna says ................................................
    Well, Inspector Tseng, I toggled to the *Show All* position, and heheheh, none of the blog entry showed on the blog summary page.
    If not, then perhaps you entered
    your text in a different text box....did you add a
    text box to the page? If it does, then maybe you
    have some preceding spaces in the text box? Or
    maybe you inserted a photo into the text box
    inadvertently?
    .......... Lorna says ................................................
    James, last night I was having so many dang blasted flippin cockamamie problems with the picture that I moved a bunch of things around and recall making a new text box and typing into it. Grrrr.
    I am going to return there and copy and paste and delete that page. I feel very bad that I cannot master the blog after so much stupid time. I also think that the blog needs to be more idiot proofed so that normally OK actions in other iWeb scenarios don't end up as yet another disaster on the ash heap of broken iWeb dreams.

  • Can we do multiple blog summary pages instead of "go to archive"??

    Hello,
    I have about 50 blog entries in my iWeb blog. I have 15 loading onto the first page. Any more really slows the front page loading times a lot. The only way to see the other blog entries is to click on "go to archive" which just shows a simple text list. Is there a way to have many summary pages of blog entries so a blog reader can click on "next page" and see them, much nicer than just seeing text titles in a list.
    -Josh

    I am having the same issue. 50 looks like the limit.
    I have made a new podcast/blog page for newer work, leaving the old stuff up on the already existing pages. Maybe you can just retitle all your pages by year, and just keep adding new ones as necessary.
    The other problem I have is, that iTunes only lists entries visible on the Home page. So if I choose to feature only the newest podcast, it will be the only one that is catalogued by iTunes for download in the iTunes store.
    This forces me to list every episode on the main page, which looks crummy, and basically eliminates the need for an "Archive" altogether.
    Why doesn't iTunes use the iWeb generated Archive for this, or am I missing something major here?
