How do I add 3 columns to my blog using Blogger? Will I have to make my own template? And another question, Can I use AdSense on wordpress.com?
ans 1) you will have to make some changes to ur code to make it 3 coloumn ans2) u cant add adsense to wordpress.com blogs
if was just thinking about it that if thay allows wp.com plogger to put adsense code they will be enjoy alot. a built in feature in blogger and not allowed in WP, thats a big BIG difference.
Yeah, but in Wordpress they brag about their security, and talk about how it is an even trade-off: Security for AdSense.
You'll have to mess up a little with your html code to get that. You need one more sidebar element and set the float to Left. Make sure you save a copy of the original html, though, just in case something goes wrong.
The first thing to do is to increase the width of your blog using the following measures: To change the width of the HEADER scroll down in Edit Template text box till you come to : /* Header ----------------------------------------------- */ #header-wrapper { width:750px; margin:0 auto 10px; border:0px solid $bordercolor; } then change 750 to whatever width you want it to be.
The size and placing of the new columns will have to be specified in the CSS first. The new sidebar is defined by #rightsidebar-wrapper { width:32%; float:right; word-wrap: break-word; /* fix for long text breaking sidebar float in IE */ overflow: hidden; /* fix for long non-text content breaking IE sidebar float */ } #rightsidebar { margin:0; padding-top: 100px; /* reduced from 170px of leftsidebar */ } the right sidebar wrapper has been floated right. Yo have to create one big column to include both the post and the left sidebar columns. After creating it you will give it a float left property. So it will float left and contain the left sidebar floating left within it and the posts column floating right within it. For this add this code and we will call it 'twocol'. #twocol { width:67%; float:left; word-wrap: break-word; /* fix for long text breaking sidebar float in IE */ overflow: hidden; /* fix for long non-text content breaking IE sidebar float */ } Since the right sidebar wrapper is 32% you have sized this at 67%. Save Template. sizes are defined. You have to add them in the body of the template. Scroll down till you come to this line : <div id='main-wrapper'> and add the following code just above this line. <div id='rightsidebar-wrapper'> <div id="rightsidebar"> </div></div> <div id="twocol"> Notice that the right sidebar wrapper along with its sidebar has been added before the main wrapper and the twocol division has been opened but not closed. To close it add this code </div> just before the footer wrapper code starts here : <div id='footer-wrapper'> Thus the twocol includes both the main wrapper which is floated right inside it and the left sidebar which is floated left. It is closed before the footer wrapper so as not to include it. Save Template.
"check out this blogspot blog of mine...do you want a 3 coloumn like this? wazzhot.blogspot.com " How did you do that? is very nice; May i have a similar template please?
I think the Wordpress rules are 1 Affliliate link, and /or a Donation link.(not sure, and I am scared to test it) Adsense is Google, and Google is Blogger. You can adsense you ass off.
Better is search for free 3 coloum blogger templates. There are 100's of templates on the web. Its simple to edit. Just copy code and paste...
Wordpress rules. Blogger is (sorry to say this, I was once to) for newbies. You have no control over your blog and blogs have been deleted with the users left dumbfounded (of course there must have been something that violated TOS and warranted deletion). Wordpress is simply a better tool. Skinny
