How To Divide Blogger Header Into Two Sections


Many bloggers utilize the top position of their blogs mostly for the header element. That's because header is the first part that search engine will reach to your blog at the first time. But, in some cases, i always see blogs that split headers in two columns and deploy some advertisement banners in that area. Well, it's fine if you want to split header and inundate that area with anything, but you must be very careful in adding lots of elements or widgets on the header position, because it might burden Googlebot when crawling your blog.



Okay then, in this post, i would like to discuss about how to split header in 2 parts or 2 columns.

In order to begin this article, i want to tell you first that i'm currently using Minima as a testing template in this split header tutorial. So i strongly suggest you to pick Minima or Rounders as a basic template for testing if this split header tutorial might work for you or not. Okay, without further long introduction, here you go, Enjoy!

1. Login to your blogger account.
Now go to Blogger.com and start typing your username along with the password to log in to your Blogger account.

2. Go to Layout/Design.
In the Dashboard page, Go to Design/Layout on your blog. After pressing the Design/Layout button, you will be brought to the new page where in the top navigation, there are 3 main sub-tabs below the Design/Layout tab. Now click at the sub-tab called Page Element (which is already in the default position of Design/Layout tab, so actually, you don't need to do anything).


3. Check the header element of your current blog.
Now in the Page Element, you are given a full authority on customizing your blog layout. As you can see in the picture below, the header element is indicated on the top position of blog layout. Below the navigation bar (Page element, Edit HTML, Template Designer) and over the post element/article element (See the picture below).

4. Go to Edit HTML
Still in the Layout/Design tab, Now start editing your current blog template by pressing the sub-tab "Edit HTML" to go to the Edit HTML page

5. Find the CSS styling to split header in 2 parts
After landing to the Edit HTML page, by pressing Ctrl + F on your keyboard, you can now start finding the code that defines the header element of your blog. Now press Ctrl + F to enter the find mode (As you can see in the bottom position of your browser, when clicking Ctrl +F, you will be given a Search navigation bar):
/* Header
---------------------------------------------- */
#header-wrapper {
  width:760px;
  margin:0 auto 10px;
  border:1px solid $bordercolor;
  }

#header-inner {
  background-position: center;
  margin-left: auto;
  margin-right: auto;
}

#header {
  margin: 5px;
  border: 1px solid $bordercolor;
  text-align: center;
  color:$pagetitlecolor;
}

6. Replace that code
Anyway, before doing any kind of customization, i strongly suggest you to save your current template just in case if later, you did something wrong with the template. Now click at the link Download Full Template.

Now block the whole CSS styling above (on number 5) with the mouse cursor and then replace those header CSS using the code below in order to split header in 2 parts:
/* Two Column Header Layout
=================================== */
#header-wrapper {
width:800px;
margin:0 auto 0px;
background:white;
height:190px;
}

#head-inner {
width:500px;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
float:left;
background-position: left;
}

#header {
margin: 0px;
text-align: left;
color:#ffcc66;
}

#second_header{
width:300px;
float:left;
padding-top:10px;
}

7. Find the code that defines the HTML code for header
Ok, now proceed to the next step. Scroll down to the bottom of the HTML code and by pressing Ctrl+F, find the code below:
    <div id='header-wrapper'>
      <b:section class='header' id='header' maxwidgets='1' showaddelement='no'>
<b:widget id='Header1' locked='true' title='Blog Title (Header)' type='Header'/>
</b:section>
    </div>

8. Replace the whole HTML code that defines the header element
Now by using your mouse cursor, block the whole code above and replace it with the code below:
<div id='header-wrapper'>
<div id='head-inner'>
<b:section class='header' id='header' maxwidgets='3' showaddelement='no'>
<b:widget id='Header1' locked='true' title='Test Blog (Header)' type='Header'/>
</b:section>
</div>
<div id='second_header'>
<b:section class='header' id='header2' preferred='yes'/>
</div>
</div>

9. Save the change
OK, Now you are done. Save the change by pressing the Save Template button. To see the result, go to Page Element again and now you can see that your blog header has been split in two header parts.

Solution To Edit HTML Problem In Blogger


I Recently Observed That My Blog Keeps Redirecting To A Different Page
 [ "blogspot.com/b/app-preview?token=Kk3WDsBAAA.VObmzefKkW1zqGaruKvYjQFrtHfGjbgf'' ]
When I Try Accessing My Html Page Of My Dashboard.



I was Unable To Edit Few Stuffs I had in mind. I was terribly worried and lacked idea of what to do. Immediately, i zoomed to Google, Searched And searched to Get A Solution. Then, I came up with this idea and way out.

Generally, the Edit Html option present in template manager redirects to a blank page, not showing the html code. The issue isn't browser dependent, i have tried Mozilla Firefox, chrome, opera and internet explorer , Opera too. But nothing worked.

The page turns blank because the 'Live on Blog' doesn't loads properly and it is the cause of the problem. And the solution to the problem is to simply avoid loading it stop loading the page before it tries to load that page element. It is easy because, the page loads and after a little pause it tries to load the Live on Blog. 










Once you have stopped the loading by clicking the (X) in the browser indicating 'stop loading this page' you will be able to load the Edit Html page easily.





This l worked for me and hope that it would work for You too.

Facebook Introduces New Button On The Pages Of Musicians



Facebook recently introduced a new like button for musicians. It has been trying to introduce newer ways to engage users and make music-listening a more social experience. Now, the social network has introduced a new 'Listen' button the page of music artists.



So how does this button work?

 Well, the button is located between ‘like’ and ‘messages’ buttons on the fan pages. When a user clicks on the ‘Listen’ button, he is then guided by Facebook to any music streaming services that the user has signed up and use.

This is Facebook’s attempt to indulge the users more when visiting the pages of music artists. Moreover, it is also a more direct and engaging way of redirecting the users to access the music streaming services such as Rdio and Spotify more frequently. We can expect Facebook to introduce even more features to make music-listening a more relevant experience when using the social network.


Facebook also introduced the ‘listen with’ button earlier, which was also related to the music-listening experience on Facebook. However, the ‘listen with’ button was created for Open Graph’s Timeline apps and was actually created by the streaming services.

Text Messages Across Networks In Nigeria To Cost N4



Information Reaching Us From News Sources Is That From February 5 2013 The Cost Of Sending A Mobile Text Will Be N4/Text..The NCC announced on Thursday 24th Jan 2013 that anybody subscribed to a Nigerian network must not be charged more than 4 Naira for text messages sent to other networks.

The NCC has set a February 5th as effective date of the policy. Josephine Amuwa, the Director, Legal and Regulatory Services of the Commission said "There was a general recognition that the cost of SMS is too high, especially in view of the interconnection rate of N1.02 for SMS as determined by the Commission in 2009.



"In accordance with the powers conferred on the Commission under Sections 4 and Chapter V11 of the Nigerian Communications Act (NCA), 2003, the Commission hereby sets a price cap of N4 for Off-net SMS.

"The new rate shall be implemented within 30 days from the date of the directive,"

She said operators proposed price ranging between 7 – 10 Naira but the commission insist on N4.


Ms. Amuwa said that this had been communicated to the operators since January 3, adding that it would, however, not place a price cap on international SMS.

This' A Good Iniatiative & I hope it'l be implemented.
