There are various ways by which we can embed different music players on our Blogger blogs. The music player mentioned below is indeed on of my favorite and i love its clean look and easy installation method . And the best part is that they are free to use, but not for sale. So lets start out with our exciting list.

Dewplayer:

I love the clean look of the Dewplayer. The user can play the songs that are pre- added to the list by clicking the play button. The player comes in 5 different sizes and those are:

  • Mini (160×20)
  • Classic (200×20)
  • Multi (240×20)
  • Playlist (240×200)
  • Bubble (250×65)

To use the player in your Blogger blogs, simply copy the HTML code below.
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="dewplayer.swf" width="200" height="20" id="dewplayer" name="dewplayer">
<param name="movie" value="dewplayer.swf" />
<param name="flashvars" value="mp3=Your File link.mp3" />

Create a Drop Down Menu In Blogger

0 comments

image

Why do you run after scripts such as jquery while you can use simple CSS and HTML to create beautiful drop down menus for your blog. I am sharing a simple code here that can be fully customize to make your preferred changes. So lets get to work!

 

How To Create a Drop Down Menu?

A drop down menu is needed when you have too much content on your blog or you love keeping things organized. To add a drop down menu to your blogger blogs do this:

  1. Go To Blogger > Design > Page Elements
  2. Select a HTML/JavaScript Widget just under the header and paste the following code inside it,

image_thumb[49] copy

<div id='bcnavbar'>
      <ul id='bcnav'>
        <li>
          <a href='#'>Home</a>
</li>
        <li>
          <a href='#'>About</a>
</li>
        <li>
          <a href='#'>Contact</a>
</li>
  <li>
           <a href='#'>Sitemap</a>

<ul>
                <li><a href='#'>Sub Page #1</a></li>
                <li><a href='#'>Sub Page #2</a></li>
                <li><a href='#'>Sub Page #3</a></li>
              </ul>
</li>

      </ul>
    </div>

Replace # with your Page Links and the bolded text with relevant page names. The yellow highlighted code is responsible for the drop down menu. You can copy and paste it under any tab you want just before </li>

To add another tab just paste this code above </ul>

<li>
          <a href='#'>Tab Name</a>
</li>

    3.   Now Go to Design > Edit HTML

    4.   Backup your template and search for ,

]]></b:skin>

     3.   Just above it paste the code below,

/*----- BC Drop Down Menu ----*/

#bcnavbar {
    background: #060505;
    width: 960px;
    color: #FFF;
        margin: 0px;
        padding: 0;
        position: relative;
        border-top:0px solid #960100;
        height:35px;

    padding: 0;
}
#bcnav li {
    list-style: none;
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
        border-left:1px solid #333;
        border-right:1px solid #333;
        height:35px;

#bcnav li a, #bcnav li a:link, #bcnav li a:visited {
    color: #FFF;
    display: block;
font:normal 12px Helvetica, sans-serif;

    text-decoration: none;
        margin: 0;
    padding: 9px 12px 10px 12px;

#bcnav li li a, #bcnav li li a:link, #bcnav li li a:visited {
    background: #BF0100;
    width: 120px;
    color: #FFF;
    display: block;

    display: block;
    margin: 0;
    padding: 9px 12px 10px 12px;

Implementation and Customization:-

Implementaion:-

Now To add One of these amazing and unique blockquotes to your blogs, do the following,

  1. Go to Blogger > Layout > Edit HTML
  2. Backup your template
  3. Search for .post blockquote and delete it along with all its occurrences. In most templates the codes look like this,
    .post-body blockquote { line-height:1.3em; }
    OR
    .post blockquote{ bla bla bla}
    If you couldn’t find such code then it is OK.
  4. Now search for ]]></b:skin> and just above ]]></b:skin> , paste the code for one of your favourite blockquotes. I am giving a sample code below

.post blockquote {
margin : 0 20px;
padding: 60px 30px 40px 20px;
background : #F1F8FE url(Paste Image Link here) no-repeat 350px 5px;
font: normal .9em "comic sans ms", Courier,"Times New Roman", Times, serif;
color : #000;
border: 8px dotted #DAB547;

}
.post blockquote p {
margin: 0;
padding-top:10px;
}

Customization:-

Important areas to be customized are bolded. Where,

  • padding: It refers to the distance of the text from blockquote borders. Which goes in this order –> Top Right Bottom Left
  • background :- This includes Blockquote background color and image used in it. The six digit value is the background color and image link is inserted in place of bolded text in this part-> url(Paste Image Link here)
  • font :- It includes font style, size and type respectively. Match the colours with the code above for reference.
  • color :- This refers to text colour. You can use a different font colour using our color chart
  • border :- This refers to border width, style and colour respectively.
  • All other blockquotes can be customized in similar way.

     5.      After customizing finally save your template and preview it to see the interesting new change.

Note:- For Blockquotes with inverted commas, canopy style and the Monkey Man, there is a little more coding required. Read below

Guide:- For above mentioned blockquotes you need to add some extra tags inside blogger editor as explained below,

Now Whenever you have written a Quote inside the compose mode of Blogger Editor simply switch to the HTML mode and add two tags i.e <div> and </div> between the blockquote tags as demonstrated below,

<blockquote><div>Your Quote Will Be Here</div></blockquote>

Play With Each Blockquote Code!

To get more used to the codes above you need to play with some CSS using our HTML Editor.

Inside MBT HTML Editor paste the any of the blockquote codes above between <style> and</style>  and just below </style> paste this code,

<blockquote>Write Anything Here As a Text</blockquote>

For example for the Owl Blockquote paste the codes in this pattern,

<style>

blockquote {
margin : 0 20px;
padding: 60px 30px 40px 20px;
background : #F1F8FE url(file:///c:/Documents%20and%20Settings/mustafa.MYBLOGGERTRICKS/Desktop/blockquote/owl-icon-48.png) no-repeat 350px 5px;
font: normal .9em "comic sans ms", Courier,"Times New Roman", Times, serif;
color : #000;
border-left: 8px dotted #DAB547;

}
blockquote p {
margin: 0;
padding-top:10px;
}

</style>

<blockquote>Write Anything Here As a Text</blockquote>

# HOW TO POST
There are no posting rules, up to you want to use this template for blogging, images/videos gallery. Just post as usual, add images, add video, write articles, all you wish to post. To post a video, just copy and paste the embed code to your post editor. This template automatically create thumbnail for Youtube videos, support new and old embed code. Use "video width = 640px" to match with "post width".

*How to floating video if I want to use small video width?
General new Youtube embed code,
<iframe width="400" height="200" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/xBzoBgfm55w" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
Floating code for left,
<iframe style="float:left;margin:0 10px 10px 0;" width="400" height="200" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/xBzoBgfm55w" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
Floating code for right,
<iframe style="float:right;margin:0 0 10px 10px;" width="400" height="200" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/xBzoBgfm55w" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
*Post Videos from another site (besides Youtube)
This template can't create automatic thumbnail for video besides Youtube. So, you need to upload image thumbnail for the video.
Always use use the image html code below to show thumbnail for video besides Youtube,
<img class="thumbvideo" src="YOUR-IMAGE-URL" />
class="thumbvideo" <- this is important
Example,
Video embed code from Metacafe,
<embed flashVars="playerVars=autoPlay=no" src="http://www.metacafe.com/fplayer/7361775/gigantic_rotating_cloud_vortex_meoter_or_ufo.swf" width="640"height="338" wmode="transparent" allowFullScreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always" name="Metacafe_7361775" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"></embed><div style="font-size:12px;">
<a href="http://www.metacafe.com/watch/7361775/gigantic_rotating_cloud_vortex_meoter_or_ufo/">Gigantic Rotating Cloud Vortex! Meoter or UFO</a> - <a href="http://www.metacafe.com/">The top video clips of the week are here</a></div>

then you need to upload the image thumbnail for that video, copy the image url then paste to the image code like below.
<img class="thumbvideo" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgM7NW-eBY-ptmCJbKNWIiR1eRrWuyJVJ9C4dJZjhw2KJrRkKheftwCcCQxi32t4-2hPCgB259HXHnFqc0lS3yGGSroptlIcnQmd_ztflRlP2Md6DAVRE-QJlsRQ6FE8b5hcSmmzbzCgWw/s400/metacafe1.JPG" />
Look like this,

#RECENT VIDEO BY CATEGORY UNDER POST

<script type='text/javascript'>var numposts = 4;var showpostthumbnails = true;var displaymore = false;var displayseparator = false;var showcommentnum = false;var showpostdate = false;var showpostsummary = false;var numchars = 80;</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/feeds/posts/default/-/YOURCATEGORYHERE?orderby=updated&alt=json-in-script&callback=labelthumbs"></script>
