Could you tell me how to have different colours for different posters in a group blog.
Susan, I figured it out!! There are a couple of points to keep in mind.
- Each group member will have a code to paste in their post. OR you can paste all the codes in Dashboard | Settings | Formatting | Post Template and then each member will delete all but their code when posting. (Personally, I would go with pasting all the codes in the Post Template. Just seems easier.)
- Each member will have a correlating code in the CSS style sheet to address the code in the post. (It will all become clear in a moment...continue reading.)
For Classic Blogger look for the <style> and </style> tags.
For Blogger Beta look for <b:skin><![CDATA[/* and ]]></b:skin> tags
Here is the code you will put between those tags.
#unique name {Items to pay attention to:
margin:0px;
padding:0px;
background:XXXXXX;
color:XXXXXX;
font: 1.1em "Trebuchet MS",Trebuchet,Verdana,Sans-Serif; font-weight:none;
}
- For each member using the blog, add this code to the CSS style sheet with a unique name for each member. If you have ten members, you will add this code ten times in your template, with ten unique names.
- Assign a color to each member.
- This changes the font color if you want. If you want the font color to remain the same through out the blog, delete this line.
<p id=unique name> Write your post here. </p>It is important to make sure that each member uses their unique name.
To summarize:
- Each member will have a unique name (Joe, Jane, poster1, etc.)
- There will be a code reflecting the unique name for each member in the CSS style sheet.
- When posting, each member will have their code <p id=unique name>and</p> in the post editor and write their post between the tags.
That should cover it! All you groupies, enjoy!!!
