Scheduled Post for Blogger

For some reason, sometimes you need to set when your article will be published, not soon after you finish the writing. This may because of your busyness, to make regular posts or for other reasons. Let say you write the article by today, and want to publish it tomorrow or the day after automatically.

In other case, sometime you want to keep any post in the top of your blog page for a while before newer post push it down.For bloggers, you can do this with Post Option on the Posting tab. 


This is the step:

1.Log in to your blogger account

2.Go to Edit Posts

3.From the Post list, select edit option from the respective article(s)

4.Go to Post option, click to pull it down.

5.On the right side, below your article find Post date and time.

6.Set this date and time as you prefers, in when your article will be posted.

7.Click Publish Post

Add Comment and Post Counter in Blogger

In managing blogs/websites, sometimes we want to know how many articles we have created and published, as well as what kind of responses are given by readers or visitors of our blog. This becomes interesting because it could be one indicator of our writing productivity and how our blog has attracted the visitor. In order to fulfill those desires, we can put indicator for both. There are many king of indicator and models that we can use for this purpose, one of them as follows:

Total Posts Script

<script style="text/javascript"><br />function showpostcount(json) {<br />document.write('Total Posts : <b>' + parseInt(json.feed.openSearch$totalResults.$t,10) + '</b><br />');}</script><br /><script src="http://namablog.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default?alt=json-in-script&callback=showpostcount"></script>

Total Comments script

<script style="text/javascript"></script><br /><script style="text/javascript"><br />function numberOfComments(json) {<br />document.write('Total Comments : <b>' + json.feed.openSearch$totalResults.$t + '</b><br />');}</script><br /><script src="http://namablog.blogspot.com/feeds/comments/default?alt=json-in-script&callback=numberOfComments"></script> With these two sripts, go to your blogger Layout--> Add Widget --> HTML/JavaScript. Copy those script into and don't forget to save. One more you can adjust by dragging your widget wherever you want. Don't forget to change the blog name (namablog) with your blog name, and widget name (Total Post/Total Comments) with your own. View your blog page or preview and find your total post and comment have been counted and displayed.

DISPLAYING HTML CODE / JAVA SCRIPT IN THE POST

To build a web page, most common tools being use are HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) and JavaScript. HTML or JavaScript, as well as its tag will not be displayed on the web page we see. What we see is normal text as an end user language or human language, whereas HTML as a machine language only works behind the scenes.
Sometimes, when we want to explain about HTML tag, as a way of writing HTML, on web pages; e.g. script package such as widgets script, table script, ordered list script, and so on, we need to show the original form of the HTML Scrip itself. For this purpose, we can not write the original script as in the draft posts, because what we will see in web page is the result of a scripting language, not the tag structure itself. In this case, we will not see what we have written. WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) is not applicable.
Let’s say you have a website about web design. And let’s say you want to display the tag required for creating a horizontal wide 20% rule. Well, if you type the tag <hr width="20%"> into your code, the browser is simply going to render it as it should be (rather than output the actual code example). See example 2.
There are two ways to display HTML tag in the web page:V 1. Encode HTML or Javascript script. This can be done at several online sites such as:
a) http://www.opinionatedgeek.com
b) http://centricle.com/tools/html-entities
and many more.

2. By substituting a few tags that we want to see as it is with character entity references or numeric character references. Basically this method is manual way of the first method.
Example 1:
To display results as in figure 1 in web page, we will write the following script in the HTML template:

Figure 1

If in the code we type:

the result will be in Figure 2:
Figure 2

Example 2:
We will write as:

in the HTML template to below result (Figure 3)in web page

Figure 3

What will displayed if we type below code is shown in Figure 4, horizontal line

Let do your own experiment..!!

Goa Gong

I wrote my travelling experience at Kawah Putih, Bandung previously where you can find very exotic volcanic crater. Now I am writing my experience in Goa Gong, the exotic cave in Pacitan, East Java. All photographs in Kawah Putih post are pictures I took myself during my visit there a few months ago, but in this post pictures taken from several online sources, though I also had the previous visit these caves.

What a wonderful scene in Indonesia. Have you ever imagined wall of heaven to be seen? If no, you can see and feel the charm whenever you want now. In Pacitan, East Java.
