Simple Recent Posts Widget for Blogger/Blogspot

The main advantage on this Recent Posts widget is that it will show not only post titles, but also post excerpts or snippets, and it's easy to customize or apply different style on it. To make it fit your own design, you will need to modify the CSS style - you can change the link or background color, the size and color of text/links.

What you can do with this widget:
- display post titles only
- change the number of posts
- change the number of characters of the post snippet/excerpt
- show the post dates

See the screenshot below:

How to add Recent Posts Widget to Blogger

Step 1. Log in to your Blogger Dashboard > go to "Layout" and click the "Add a Gadget" link


Step 2. From the pop-up window, scroll down and choose HTML/JavaScript


Step 3. Select & Copy the code from one of the options below and paste it into the new HTML/JavaScript:

Option 1: Recent Posts Widget with Snippets

<div id="hlrpsa">
<script src="http://helplogger.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/recent-posts-with-snippets.js">
</script>
<script>
var numposts = 5;var showpostdate = false;var showpostsummary = true;var numchars = 100;var standardstyling = true;
</script>
<script src="http://blog-address.com/feeds/posts/default?orderby=published&amp;alt=json-in-script&amp;callback=showrecentposts">
</script></div><a style="font-size: 9px; color: #CECECE; float: right; margin: 5px;" href="http://helplogger.blogspot.com/2012/04/simple-related-posts-widget-for-blogger.html" rel="nofollow" >Recent Posts Widget</a>
<noscript>Your browser does not support JavaScript!</noscript>
<style type="text/css">
#hlrpsa a {color: #0B3861; font-size: 13px;}
#rpdr, #rpdr a {color:#808080;}
#hlrpsa { color: #999999; font-size: 11px; border-bottom:1px #cccccc dotted; margin-top:-10px; padding-bottom:10px;}
.hlrps a {font-weight:bold; }
.hlrpssumm {}
</style>

Option 2: Recent Posts Widget Showing Post Titles Only

<div id="hlrpsb">
<script style="text/javascript" src="http://helplogger.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/recent-posts-with-titles-only.js"></script>
<script style="text/javascript">var numposts = 10;var showpostdate = false;var showpostsummary = false;var numchars = 100;var standardstyling = true;</script>
<script src="http://blog-address.com/feeds/posts/default?orderby=published&alt=json-in-script&callback=showrecentposts"></script></div><a style="font-size: 9px; color: #CECECE; float: right; margin: 5px;" href="http://helplogger.blogspot.com/2012/04/simple-related-posts-widget-for-blogger.html" rel="nofollow" >Recent Posts Widget</a>

.bbrecpost2 {
padding-top:6px;
padding-bottom:6px;
border-bottom: 1px #cccccc dotted; }
</style>
Step 4. Customize it:
- Change 5 (option 1) and 10 (option 2) with the number of posts that you want to display.
- Change false to true if you want the posts dates to appear
- Change 100 (option 1) if you want more characters to be displayed.
- To change the color and font size of the links, modify the values in blue (links) and violet (font-size)
- To change the style of posts summary, modify the values in green (color) and orange (font size)
- Replace the http://blog-address.com text with your URL

Step 5. Save your widget. And that's it! Enjoy!

  //<![CDATA[
var timeout    = 500;
  var closetimer = 0;
  var ddmenuitem = 0;
function jsddm_open()
  {  jsddm_canceltimer();
  jsddm_close();
  ddmenuitem = $(this).find('ul').css('visibility', 'visible');}
function jsddm_close()
  {  if(ddmenuitem) ddmenuitem.css('visibility', 'hidden');}
function jsddm_timer()
  {  closetimer = window.setTimeout(jsddm_close, timeout);}
function jsddm_canceltimer()
  {  if(closetimer)
  {  window.clearTimeout(closetimer);
  closetimer = null;}}
$(document).ready(function()
  {  $('#jsddm > li').bind('mouseover', jsddm_open)
  $('#jsddm > li').bind('mouseout',  jsddm_timer)});
document.onclick = jsddm_close;
  //]]>
  </script>
Step 7. Hit the "Save Template" button to save the changes.

Step 8. Now let's add the HTML structure of the menu: Go to Layout > click on "Add a gadget" link


Step 9. Choose HTML/JavaScript from the pop-up window


Step 10. Paste the following code in the empty box:
<ul id="jsddm">
  <li><a href="#">Home</a>
  <li><a href="#">Link 1</a>
  <ul>
  <li><a href="#">Drop 1-1</a></li>
  <li><a href="#">Drop 1-2</a></li>
  <li><a href="#">Drop 1-3</a></li>
  </ul>
  </li>
 <li><a href="#">Link 2</a>
  <ul>
  <li><a href="#">Drop 2-1</a></li>
  <li><a href="#">Drop 2-2</a></li>
  </ul>
  </li>
 <li><a href="#">Link 3</a>
  <ul>
  <li><a href="#">Drop 3-1</a></li>
  <li><a href="#">Drop 3-2</a></li>
  <li><a href="#">Drop 3-3</a></li>
  <li><a href="#">Drop 3-4</a></li>
  </ul>
  </li>
 <li><a href="#">Link 4</a></li>
  <li><a href="#">Link 5</a></li>
  <li><a href="#">Link 6</a></li>
  </li></ul>
Note : Change the titles and replace the # symbol with the URL address of each of your links

Step 11. Click the "Save" button.


Important:
- if your menu is on the sidebar, or footer, just drag it to your page header and click Save again.
- if drop down links are not showing, do the following:

Go back to Template > Edit HTML and search (CTRL + F) this code:
<b:section class='header' id='header' maxwidgets='1' showaddelement='no'>
Change 1 with 3 and no with yes like this:
<b:section class='header' id='header' maxwidgets='3' showaddelement='yes'>
Save the Template.

And again, go to Layout and drag the menu immediately below the header


Click the "Save Arrangement" on the upper right side and that's it!


Here you can see the DEMO.

UPDATE: Now available for threaded commenting system too!
emoticons in blogger, kolobok smileys, threaded comments



How To Add Kolobok Smileys to Blogger Comments

Step 1. Log in to your Blogger account and go to Template - Edit HTML


Step 2. Click anywhere inside the code area and press the CTRL + F keys to open the search box


Step 3. Search (CTRL + F) for this tag:
</body>

Step 4. Copy and paste just above it, this code:

a) For previous commenting system with comments that have no reply function:
<!--kolobok-smileys-->
<script src='http://helplogger.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/[helplogger.blogspot.com]smileys.js' type='text/javascript'/>
<!--kolobok-smileys-->
b) For threaded commenting system with comments that have the reply function:
<script src='https://helplogger.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/kolobok threaded.js' type='text/javascript'/>
Note: ignore steps 5-8 if you are using threaded comments!

Step 5. Now find this code snippet:
<b:loop values='data:post.comments' var='comment'>
Step 6. Paste the following code just above it:
<div id='smileys'>
Step 7. Find the following code (look carefully, it should be somewhere below the code from step 5)
</b:loop>
Step 8. Paste the following tag just after it:
</div>
Step 9. Now find this code:
a) For previous commenting system:
<data:blogTeamBlogMessage/>
Note: if you'll find it like 4 times, stop to the 2nd one!

b) For threaded commenting system:
<div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-3'>

Step 10. And add this code just after it:
<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == &quot;item&quot;'><script type='text/javascript'>
//<![CDATA[
function moreSmilies() {
    document.getElementById('smiley-more').style.display = 'inline';
    document.getElementById('smiley-toggle').innerHTML = '<a href="javascript:lessSmilies()"><div style="font-size:small; font-weight:bold;color:#000000;">Hide Emoticons</div></a>';
}
function lessSmilies() {
    document.getElementById('smiley-more').style.display = 'none';
    document.getElementById('smiley-toggle').innerHTML = '<a href="javascript:moreSmilies()"><div style="font-size:small; font-weight:bold;">Show Emoticons</div></a>';
}
//]]>
</script>
<div class='emoticons'>

How To Add or Change Favicon on Blogger Blogspot

Favicon (Favorites Icon) is the small picture (usually 16px x 16px in size) you see beside some some site's name in your browser's address bar. Having your own favicon with a nice graphical reminder of your site beside is a good way to get visitors attention. Blogger users can add a custom favicon for their blogs going to the Layout section  and by clicking on the Edit link on the "Favicon" element.


"For many bloggers, having a custom favicon (the tiny image displayed in your browser’s window or tab) is the finishing touch that ties together the design and identity of a great looking blog. Today, we're pleased to announce that Blogger in Draft users can now add a customized favicon to their blog. ~Blogger in Draft"

How To Add a Favicon to Your Blogger Blog

Step 1. Log in to your Blogger's Dashboard, go to the Layout and click on Add a Gadget link


Step 2. Click on the "Edit" link on the "Favicon" setting above the navbar element.


Step 3. A popup window will open where you can search for an image in your hard drive to replace the default favicon image. Click on "Browse" button and search for your favicon (it should have the .ico extension) - then click on "Save".



Step 4. Now you should see your own favicon instead of blogger's default favicon.


It might take some time until your new favicon will appear in your Browser's tab or window.
