Lable cloud for blogger. Tag clout to your web site
Well, I being very liberal while labeling my posts, ended up with a long list of labels that was occupying almost the whole of the sidebar. The only solution was a Technorati style tag cloud, rather a label cloud. A Google search, and there it was, a whole lot of links telling me on how to make a label cloud for blogger. But soon it appeared that almost all the pages directly or indirectly ended up linking the same source, which I guess may be the best resource for this. Why not one more page linking to that site? Yeah yeah , that’s the purpose of this post after all. Actually, the code and the steps you need to follow to make your own blogger label cloud is so simple that my label cloud was up and running in five minutes. Just check out for yourself. Its just three pieces of codes that you need to paste in different places of your template code and adjust some minor parameters if you want to and that’s it.
Go through the source/documentation to create your own blogger label.
Here is the code and setup information to use the Label Cloud in New Blogger.
First you obviously have to have a blog on New Blogger, and you MUST be using the layouts templates,
(this isn't available for classic templates, or FTP published blogs ) and you must have some posts labeled already. (There needs to be at least ONE label with more than ONE entry or the scripts hit a bug - so have at least one label with more than one entry before starting).
Make sure you backup your template before making any changes!
Log into Blogger and go to your layouts section. On the 'Page Elements' setup page
make sure you have a label widget already installed where you want it (it can be moved around
later). Then go to the Edit HTML settings and leave the widgets NOT exapanded. It will make
things easier to deal with.
Now the code comes in 3 parts. A section for the stylesheet, a configurations section,
and then the actual widget itself.
The first part to put in is the stylesheet section. The following code needs to be copied
and inserted into your stylesheet, which in the layouts is marked out by the
FIREFOX THE FOX WAY. SHOWS OUT THE FLASH URL EMBEDED ON WEB PAGE
www.youthsprouts.blogspot.com
Like that embedded flash animation or game on a website and wanted to have it on your hard disk. You can do that if you are on Firefox. Its very simple, just load the webpage with the embedded flash animation on Firefox and go to Tools -> Page Info. Select the Media tab on the page info box.
A list appears which lists all media contents on the webpage like images, sounds,
flash etc with details like address of the file and the type. Scroll through the list and identify the flash file embedded on the page you want to save. One hint would be that its extension is .swf and it would be listed as 'Embed' type in the list. Once you find out the embedded flash file, select it and click on 'Save As' button below the list to save the file on your hard disk.
