I feel a little guilty trying to take you up on an offer of help you made so long ago, but it seems like Ramani has not answered questions about this in a while and I thought perhaps you would have a sense of what's going on. I really would like to get this hack operational on my blog, but I cannot make it work. I keep getting a message about b:includable elements not being permitted in widget 1. I've checked and rechecked and re-re-checked that I'm putting everything in the correct place. Any other thoughts about what might be wrong here?Thanks very much,
Emilie
Emilie, I think Ramani probably is busy with his new baby. If I remember right, they had a baby not long ago. So, I took a look at Ramani's post and tried it in a practice blog. I got the same message as you. I played with it a bit and was able to make it work. With only one change. I will outline the steps here.
Open your Dashboard | Template | Edit HTML | and check Expand Widget Templates. After the <head> tag place the following code:
<script type='text/javascript'>That was the change I made from Ramani's code. I don't understand it so much, but it works. The rest is the same. You can read the rest on Hackosphere or expand this post for the second part of the instructions.
function toggleIt(id) {
post = document.getElementById(id);
if (post.style.display != 'none') {
post.style.display = 'none';
} else {
post.style.display = '';
}
}
</script>
Your widgets are expanded from the instructions above. Now look for blog-posts and add the code in red.
<b:includable id='PeekABooPost' var='post'>
<div class='post uncustomized-post-template'>
<table><tr>
<td width='40px'>
<a href='javascript:void(0)' title='Expand/collapse this post' style='text-decoration:none' expr:onclick='"javascript:toggleIt(\"" + data:post.id + "\");"'>[+/-]</a>
</td>
<td>
<h3 class='post-title'><a expr:href='data:post.url'><data:post.title/></a></h3>
</td>
</tr></table>
<div class='post-body' expr:id='data:post.id' style='display:none'>
