Label cloud in blogger

Use a simple code to display a cloud of labels from all your posts with the most repeated one shown with the largest font. See the Label cloud that you can see at the lower right corner..It's so cool it shows the largest used label the widest and biggest, reducing the overall space used by labels and helping users to figure out ways to better explore your site/blog.

Haknit got a total makeover thanks to a friendly blogger..

Thanks to a blogger friendly user who gave me this layout, Haknit got a new look..
But still i had to do a lot of work in this.. And still the update process is going on. The worst part of this template is that it is not blogger friendly and the Page Element thing don't work at all. So i had to use all my HTML skills to carve this up.
Also do tell us how's the new look . About any bugs or errors.
I would like to thank http://woork.blogspot.com for this..

Create Expandable blogger templates

With little bit of modifications to your Blogger Beta template you can easily implement expandable post summaries in your blog main page. Expandable posts gives very professional and elegant look to your blog. You can hide most of the detailed content from main page and display them when the page of the post is opened.

If you observer my blog, voting widgets are displayed on my post links and not in my main page. Also, most of the images in my posts are shown only in the actual post links only. Moving bandwidth intensive content to posts' pages loads your main page very fast.

With this trick, you can choose to display an arbitrary amount of text from the beginning of each post, as a teaser for the whole thing. Then users who want to read the rest of the post can click a link to see the full text. This is handy if you have lots of long articles all on one page. Note that you'll need to have post pages enabled in order to make this feature work.

There are three ingredients that go into this feature: conditional CSS, a "read more" link for each post, and a modification for the posts that use this feature. So let's go through it step by step.

Add Digg button to blogger

This is a simple trick that lets you add a digg it button to your blogger posts. It lets your users easily share your posts. And also increases your site's traffic. And popularize your blog.





Before you do that though, you would want to take note of the following:-



1. Your blog should be set to save Post Pages. Post Pages are archived blog posts published to their own web page. Each post will have a unique URL, which is required by Digg for the individual posts to be submitted. To verify or enable it, login to your Blogger Dashboard. Under Settings-> Archiving, set the “Enable Post Pages?” to “Yes” and save the settings.



2. This template hack will put a Digg button to every post. You are therefore not able to choose which post you want to include or exclude a button. If you would prefer to have a Digg button added only to some posts, read the later part of this article on “Button for selective posts.”



3. The code reads the URL of the individual blog page and this shall be the URL used for submission of the story to Digg.



Under “Template”, click the “Edit HTML” tab. Block copy the entire HTML code for your site and save it in a text file. You can also click the "Download Template" link. This is one of the two necessary steps whenever you want to change the template. The second step is of course to “Preview” the new changes, and save the changes only when you are satisfied. The backup you have saved in a text file will come in handy when you accidentally click to save the changes without previewing them. With a backup, you can easily restore the template to the prior state if need be.







Click the box next to “Expand Widget Templates”. Scroll about two-thirds down the template to look for the code that reads:-







If you want the button to show at the top right corner of your post, replace the above code with this.
