Blogger Template Info

Ads Theme Template

 Click to enlarge Ads Theme Blogger template


If you’re looking for a new Blogger template, you came at the right time. Hands down, this is the best template we’ve converted here at eBlog Templates. It’s a wonderful web 2.0 popular blog layout with some great built in ad spots (hence the template name) and features.

It’s either a two or 3 column template (you can change it on the fly) so you get the best of both worlds. This Blogger template is what I call a “powerhouse” template since almost all the features you need are already built in. On top of that, it’s quite easy to setup and makes your blog look like a professional site without much effort.

I predict this template will be a top template on this site within a few months, if not weeks. With the amount of effort that went into converting this template and attention to details, I sure hope you appreciate this free amazing new xml Blogger/Blogspot template.

Features Include

  • Two or Three right side columns which are easy to switch (default is three)
  • Three great location ad spots (header banner 468 x 60, three 125 x 125 buttons in sidebar, and a 468 x 60 AdSense banner above the first post)
  • Integrated Feedburner rss and subscribe via email sidebar module (also includes “add to favorites” Technorati link)
  • Built-in live traffic feed widget from FEEDJIT
  • Built-in MyBlogLog and BlogCatalog recent reader widgets
  • Dynamic tabs easily created by editing the link list widget
  • Search box without the need for a “go” button
  • Recent posts and comments widgets
  • Nicely designed individual blog post comments section
  • Properly setup Blogger layout editor

You can see from this screenshot that the actual editor is nicely setup so you don’t need to scroll or try and figure out how to click on the “edit” widget links. Most templates that you download make it tough to edit — not this one!

This template does require some configuration in order to get it working as designed. Please follow the steps below if you’d like it to work properly. I also recommend backing up your existing template before changing just in case you run into any problems. You could also setup a new Blogger blog as a test area and try installing it there first.

Top Tabs Setup

When you first install this template the top tabs will not be visible which is normal. You’ll need to go into the Blogger page element layout editor and edit the “Top Tabs” widget. It’s a link list so just add whatever tabs you want. Don’t add a “Home” tab since it will automatically appear once you create and save the tab widget.

Header Ad Banner

The default banner is hardcoded into the template but will disappear when you add anything to this widget. It’s an HTML widget so you can put the banner ad code straight into this box. This widget can also be deleted if you don’t have a 468 x 60 and you’ll just be left with the black header. Here’s the default ad code if you want to use it as a model:

<a href="https://www.linkworth.com?a=10230" target="_blank">
<img src="https://www.linkworth.com/adm/affiliate_manager/affiliate_banners/bann-36.gif" border="0" />
</a>

FeedBurner RSS and Email Links

To get this section working you’ll first need to have a FeedBurner account. If you don’t already have one, please read the “How to Setup FeedBurner on Blogger” article and then come back. Another option is to just delete this widget if you’re not interested in knowing your subscriber count or allowing your readers an easy way to subscribe.

Once you’ve got your FeedBurner account, you’ll need to edit this template code and replace a few parts. Search your template code for the following line <!-- Replace Your RSS, RSS Email Subscription, and Technorati --> and then look right below that for the rss feed link.

https://feeds.feedburner.com/<strong>YOUR-FEED-NAME-HERE</strong> . Replace the text in red with your FeedBurner name (i.e. eBlogTemplates is ours)

Next we’ll need to update the subscribe via email link with your feed id. You’ll need to make sure to enable subscribe via email within FeedBurner otherwise this part won’t work.

https://www.feedburner.com/fb/a/emailverifySubmit?feedId=YOUR-FEED-ID-HERE&loc=en_US

After you’ve changed both of these areas save your template and check to see if it works. If you’re having trouble finding your feed name or id, please read our article above or see FeedBurner’s help section to locate it.

125 x 125 Ad Section

These are the three ads in the right sidebar which you need to edit the template code to change. Search the template code for <!– Replace with your 125 x 125 ads –> and then look right below that for the three lines of ad code which are:

<a href="https://www.widgetbucks.com/home.page?referrer=7116002"><img src="https://i254.photobucket.com/albums/hh92/eblogtemplates/adstheme/banner-widgetbucks.gif" border="0px" /></a>

<a href="https://www.linkworth.com/?a=10230"><img src="https://i254.photobucket.com/albums/hh92/eblogtemplates/adstheme/banner-linkworth2.gif" border="0px" /></a>

<a href="https://www.text-link-ads.com/?ref=2164"><img src="https://i254.photobucket.com/albums/hh92/eblogtemplates/ads/text_link_ads_F_125x125.gif" border="0px" /></a>

If you’ve got ads to place in here, then just paste the code into the template. I recommend signing up for your own Text Link Ads account and using them. Each referral you convert, you get $20 (or $25 I forget). If you don’t have ads to use, you can either leave our default ads or delete this widget altogether.

Recent Posts and Comments Widgets

This one is easy to setup since we’ve already written an entire article dedicated to this. Please see “How to Setup Recent Comments and Posts Widgets” to configure these two widgets.

Recent Readers Widget

You’ll need to have MyBlogLog and BlogCatalog accounts if you want to use this widget. The default widget will show the original author’s pictures so please either delete this widget or change the account ids to your own. Once you’ve setup these up, then edit the template code and search for <!-- Replace "2007112507294841" with your your mybloglog id --> and then replace the account numbers with yours.

Live Traffic Feed Widget

This is a really cool feature within this template and the best part is you don’t need to do anything to setup it up! There are some further options if you click on “options >>” on your actual blog page under the widget but that’s it.

You should now have the template all setup and ready to go. I hope you enjoy this beauty and please make sure to keep the footer links intact since numerous hours of my time and the original designer were put into making it. That’s all we ask for giving away this template! Enjoy!

Special thanks to Eric over at Blogging Secret for designing this wonderful template originally for WordPress.

Revision History

Update (3/3/08) – Per a couple requests and to make this template even more flexible, I’ve changed how underlined links are handled. You can now edit the underlined color via the Blogger “Fonts and Colors” section along with 10+ additional other color variables. Less work for you having to mess with the .css template code now.

Update (3/5/08) – Added in post author tags so you can toggle the “By Author Name” within the posts. Also compressed the css so the file is much slimmer and cleaner.

Update (3/14/08) – The individual posts Google AdSense code block was missing and has now been added to the template code.

Update (4/18/08) – Fixed layout screen so the two widgets aren’t overlapping.

So I downloaded and installed the template, looks awesome, very happy overall. Had to stay up all night fixing all the widgets and getting everything tweaked.

One problem I cannot seem to figure out. I have the date set to show on the post details in blogger, but there is no date displayed on the posts?

Anyone have any idea why?? I am pulling out my hair trying to figure it out.

very very good template for ➡ blogger 😆


   
Kelly on Nov 2, 2008, 8:22 am  

Hi, I tried to replace the 125×125 banners in code with an image of the same size and it came up with this error: bX-9lq4n9

Can anyone shed some light?
Thanks


   
shraq on Nov 2, 2008, 9:09 am  

Hi Kelly.
You need to convert the code first.
Use the ad code converter from here http://www.eblogtemplates.com/blogger-ad-code-converter/ .

It work fine for me.

Kelly on Nov 2, 2008, 9:20 am  

Thanks Shraq, but it still didn’t work, all I’m trying to do is replace the current url of the image in the img src to link to a new image!! .. I saw on ur blog you have left the ads in?

ps I am planning to get an iphone later this year so ur blog will be useful to me 🙂


   
shraq on Nov 2, 2008, 9:44 am  

can u please link your blog to me. because I,m not really sure what the main problem is.
You wanted to replace only url from the ads right? that means, you do have your own affiliate link within the ads. Ok. If that is the case, I think, it is much easier if u just replace all of it, not just the url.
I hope this will help


   
Talk2myCPA on Nov 2, 2008, 5:56 pm  

Hi Kelly,

I just posted a solution for this 125×125 ad code replacement. All you need to do is to cut and paste the code in the text box that i provided and your good to go. This is the link for the details: http://talk2mycpa.blogspot.com/2008/10/ads-theme-template.html

The details have a text box so that HTML code can be posted exactly as it is to avoid HTML errors.

Cheers!

BTW: shraq, thanks for sharing and comment in my site.


   
Stratoblogster on Nov 3, 2008, 2:55 pm  

I have an old 3 column hacked Minima which was migrated to New Blogger but still lacks access to the current Blogger template editor.

Do these new templates work fully when hosted at blogspot?


   
Kelly on Nov 3, 2008, 5:04 pm  

Hi Shraq and CPA

It works!! Note I did have to delete my cookies before it worked though. Thank you so much.


   
Mircea on Nov 4, 2008, 5:09 am

Copied from comment # 68…

Okay, so now I’ve opened the XML document and copied and pasted it into the Blogger html area and now I’m getting this message when trying to preview:

“Your template could not be parsed as it is not well-formed. Please make sure that all XML elements are closed properly.
XML error message: The document type declaration for root element type “html” must end with ‘>’.”

Grrr. It looks like such a great layout and I’m dying to use it 🙂

I’ve got the same problem… This person (a few posts down said that he’d fixed it, but not HOW he fixed it…

HELP! Please… I really want to get going with this fantastic looking template!
Thanks!
Aria


   
Talk2myCPA on Nov 20, 2008, 6:21 pm  

Aria, I’ve posted a new post at my blog on how to upload and use this template.

Here is the link: http://talk2mycpa.blogspot.com/2008/11/how-to-upload-ads-theme-template.html

Tami on Dec 2, 2008, 7:01 am  

I LOVE this template and have been fiddling with it for a bit to customize the colors and such. It’s the first time I delved that deeply into setting up a template (never touched coding before) .. anyway I was hoping someone would please help me with a color issue. If you look at my blog you’ll see the sidebars have a light grey background and I want it the darker grey.. but I for the life of me can not find the color line in the code and it’s not part of the colors you can change through the blogger editor.. can someone please let me know what the six digit color code is so I can do a search in “Edit HTML” and change it to the darker grey? Thanks so much!


   
Jon on Dec 3, 2008, 3:55 pm  

Hi, You guys are great for helping everyone here.

I tried to find an answer before but I couldn’t find the answer…

My question is… How do you get your adsense text ads to have larger text? The adsense ad you have in this template above the post is a 468, but the type is much, much larger, and even sometimes center justified…

How are you making title text on adsense so big?

I would like to do the same on my blog, http://www.CuriousRead.com

Thanks for your help!


   
mojacho on Dec 4, 2008, 6:03 am

Adstheme template is something out of the world. I down loaded and and I need a help urgently.

I see AdSense banner (468×60) at the top. It has your AdSense id.

When I replaced it with my id, the AdSense doesn’t appear.

I also saw another id: Google ad host: pub-159927….
What is this id#.

Now how do I have my adsesne banner at the top?
Please help,
Thanks.

shraqshaq on Dec 5, 2008, 2:53 am  

Hi mala.
about your 1st problem ads (468×60). Don’t just replace the id, try to replace all code with yours.
for the banner, replace the original banner with your adsense code (468×60) recommended. Search this line in your HTML


put your ads here

(make sure you’re already click “Expand Widget Templates”.


   
shraqshaq on Dec 5, 2008, 3:09 am  

sorry for that mala.
about the top banner. search for this line on your HTML:

…Delete or replace with your ad…
put your ad code here
…End ad….

Hope this will help.

mala on Dec 5, 2008, 5:53 pm  

Hello shraqshaq.
Thanks for your kind help.
I tried that also but no success. The ads just don’t appear. I am only seeing a blank space.

This is the code I tried to paste it there. Is the code right?

Can you pl tell me the exact place to paste it. I think I am doing some mistake there. If you can tell me the line below which I need to paste th code, that will help.

Thanks again for your kindness and time.


   
mala on Dec 5, 2008, 10:51 pm  

I have resolved my ad code issue. I happen to read sincerely your article on ad code and how to convert it. I used your ad code converter and it worked instantly.

This is a brilliant piece of tool. Just fantastic and I thank you very much.


   
Jason on Dec 6, 2008, 4:07 am  

Hi,

I tried out the template and it looks great. I replaced the background image and included my own meta tags in the header and submitted the new blog to Google. But today the indexed result of all my posts had this “skip to main | skip to sidebar” in front of the meta. Is there a way to take out that excerpt from being shown in the search result?


   
matuse on Dec 6, 2008, 6:43 am  

Thanks for info.. 🙂
