The drag-and-drop layout manage in Blogware lets you easily add/remove/move the system components that come with every blog. In addition, you can create a custom component which can also be added to your blog using the layout manager. This is useful if you want to incorporate items like blogrolls, Google AdSense, polls, or other custom content and still have it use the same look and feel as the rest of your blog. Here's how you do it.
Log in to manage your blog then:
- Click on the Look and Feel tab.
- Click on the Advanced tab in the Layout manager area.
- Under the Add Custom Component area, enter a Name for your component--this will not show on your blog but should be descriptive so you know which components are which.
- In the Content area, you can enter your custom content. If you want this be formatted like the rest of the components, you can use the following as a basis:
<div class="component">
<div class="componentHead">YOUR HEADING</div>
<div class="componentContent">
YOUR CONTENT</div>
</div> - After you've saved the component, click the COLUMNS tab and then drag and drop your component where you want it.
- Be sure to Save your changes.
