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.
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.
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.
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>
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.

Hi Hashan
Have you tried the English version at Amanda’s blog?
http://www.bloggerbuster.com/2008/02/how-to-create-post-summaries-in-blogger.html.
You need to copy the javascript to the head of your template first.

I was wondering if I could place the adsense for search box instead of the normal search bar on the header on this template… Does anyone know how to do that?
Any help would be greatly aprciated
It is working well. I love this template. I even managed to modify a few things like adding 3 column footer, related posts, google search, etc. Thanks!!!
Hi swanie, where did u put the google search box? at the header? pls help me out…
Hello guys,
I don’t know if this question has already been answered, but I just installed the Ads-Theme on my blogger account and just posted my first blog entry. Now, the problem is that the comment link isn’t working. Normally, clicking on the comment link should open up for visitors to leave comments, but the comment window isn’t showing.
I also want to add that I have enable comments in the settings area to allow anyone to leave comments, but it still doesn’t work.
Does anyone know how to fix it?
I also did faced the same problem… Just switch your comment options to “OPEN POPUP MODE” in the blog settings…
Hi,
I’m having trouble with the timestamp for my posts. The date is not showing up. Which format should I be using? Thanks!!
Hi Razzaque,
I myself put Adsense Search (the old format) in the side bar. But if you want to put it in the header, do the following.
1. Copy adsense search code
2. Add a “HTML/Javascript” widget (ie. in the side bar) and paste the adsense code. Don’t put any title.
3. Right-align the search box by changing div into div align=”right”
4. Drag the widget from the sidebar to the header just below “Top Tabs”
I hope it helps.
Swanie
Hi Maria,
To get the date right, you need to change the setting from the dashboard.
Settings >> Formatting >> then change the Timestamp to a date format.
I hope it helps.
Swanie
at Swanie… Nope it didnt work… I want to remove the default blogger search box given on this template and to put the google search in dere…
@ Razzaque
You need to remove the original search widget from the template before doing what I mentioned.
Have a look at this for exampe.
Great template. Looks good
Oh! I am having problem to reomve the original search widget…

Hi,
Great template, but I’m having a few problems.
I have tried going to setting to set these up but the changes are not showing up.
I can’t seem to get the time and tags at the end of each post.
I want the quick edit, but the little pencil is not showing up next to my posts.
Also, I want the Blogger links (
Search Blog
Flag Blog
Next Blog» New Post | Customize | Sign Out) at the top, but it’s not showing above my blog.
I’m fairly new to blogging, and can’t figure this out. thanks.
