Salu2

Hey! Thanks a ton for the great template! I’m using it on my blog page(as linked to my name). I love the colors..and the design goes with the title of my page.

I just have one question. I’m not able to configure the recent posts and recent comments tabs! I am getting a blank window when I click on the Edit buttons for those two features! So, where do I enter the posts and the comments feed when I do not even get the “Edit” dialog box?!

Please reply.

Hola Kadambari,

Recent posts and comments has already been configured correctly. You don’t have to do any editing, but you can drag it anywhere you want it placed (on Page Elements mode).

Anyway, what are you trying to edit (recent posts and comments)?

Greetings and lots of love from Malaysia.

hi arahman

I’m having the same problem with the recent posts & comments as kadambari on my blog http://www.punggolplus.com.

I get the same blank edit box. I remembered that there should be a field to key in the rss feed in but it’s not happening.

Pls help.

Hola Jessica,

I don’t know what goes on lately, but Blogger had changed a lot of things lately.

As in Kadambari’s case, I guess she’s lucky because she had used the Recent Posts and Recent Comments gadget despite getting a blank page on Page Elements mode. For now she’s able to use the gadgets. Unfortunately, she can’t edit it because she will be getting a blank page but she’s able to move it around.

For your case, read Nitecruzr’s post, Atom/RSS Feeds Are Empty.

If you browse around Blogger Help Group you will notice Blogger’s users are getting a lot of problems lately.

This is what a Blogger Employee said about it, Recently we changed the way our template editor accepts certain third
party code, so that it is now less tolerant of certain templates. We
did this because we had seen a lot of data corruption due to ‘bad
templates,’ and we are trying to stave off some of these issues pre-
emptively.

You can read more about it here, Something is Broken.

Hope it will enlighten you.

Hey Arahman..
Thanks for your ever prompt reply.
Like Jessica has mentioned..our problem is this..

When we click on the “edit” option on the recent posts/ recent comments widget box, a configure feed dialog box opens. (like shown above in description and tutorials). But, the box is blank and there is no place to enter the comments and post feed. Here’s a snapshot of what the box looks like..

Please let us know..what’s wrong.
Thanks again!

I continued unavalible tu put that template on mi blog :s

Hola Kadambari and Jessica,

I’ve already replied to both of your posts, but my comment is awaiting moderation. Please wait for David (eBlog Templates’ founder) to release my reply. Sorry about that.

Greetings and lots of love from Malaysia.

Hola my friend Jorge,

What seem to be the problem? You continued unavalible tu put what in that template? If you meant the Recent Posts and Recent Comments widget, try using Hans of Beautiful Beta Widget Installation and Download widgets.

Hope that will enlighten you.

Greetings and lots of love from Malaysia.

no, i mean to install the template.. y have the famous feed1 id error

Hola Jorge,

Sorry, I can’t help you with that. Seem like Blogger had made a lot of changes lately. Here’s what a Blogger Employee said about it,

Thanks Arahman. Again for your magic solution to every problem.

I tweaked my template around based on all the suggestions you have given above and it works great!

I am using a different “import feed” widget for my recent comments and posts because the default template feed dialog box is empty. Anyway, I’ll try to get other third party widgets for this purpose.

Thanks again.

Hola Kadambari,

I’m happy to hear it works great for you and thank you again for starting my morning with a smile. I’m sure today gonna be another great day.

I just wanted to say that I love this template. Thank you so much for developing and offering such a fabulous looking blog!

I love this template! I’m currently using it on a dummy site, but will get it up soon. Was wondering if it is legal/ok to change the color of the orange box, or if you have other color options somewhere?
Also, how would I do a footer like the one at the bottom of this page with many columns?

Thanks for creating this for blogger, and for your quick feedback! That’s the sign of a good template. 🙂

I’m having an issue with the Recent Posts/Comments widget. It seems that an extra table of sorts has been created that I can’t seem to get rid of. When I click the alternate tab, it bounces up, and when I click back to the original tab, it goes beneath the list again.

I’ve tried just about everything. I don’t know what to do to get it to function normally.

Best templates i have seen for blogger, thsnks

Hi..i love the template but im having difficulties with the date..it didnt show up and ive read thru the comments and didnt find any solution for this problem. What changes do i have to make for the timestamp to show on my posts? Ty

@E –

Go to Settings > Formatting > Date Header Format.

Set it for: Monday, April 6, 2009.

ty for the reply. I tried it but it didnt work..it still didnt show on my posts..do i need to do same adjustment on the page elements under blog posts edit?

I imagine that changing the one setting would automatically change the other. In the event that it does not then yes, you should change the setting in your Page Elements in the Blog Posts section as well.

oo i tried using Settings > Formatting > Timestamp and adjust it to Monday, April 06, 2009 and it worked!..tyvm hehehe

this is really a nice template and planning to use it. the problem is for recent post and comment section. im really fed up with this problem because there are other template that have these problems too.

but every problems must have solutions. for me, i just learn to hack blogger from a few websites that teach us on how to set up recent post and recent comments. just add to ur blog and problem solved.

salam mr ArahMan7, can u teach me on how to increase the width of the main post and add read more options?

i really appreciate ur help.

@ Kristopher – Still working on your extra table on your Recent Posts/Comments widget. Will email you after I figure it out.

@ wan18 – Good for you. I’ve a lot to learn too. By the way, which template you wanna increase the width? For now, try finding “Outer Wrapper” and “Main Wrapper” and increase the width that suited your need.

Read more – I did published two posts about it long long time ago. You can read it here, Summarry/Expandable Post and Another Summary/Expandable Post.

Hope it will answer your questions.

Greetings and lots of love from Kuale Kangsor, Malaysia.

Recent articles and post are working at my blogspot civitasprzedborz. Blog in PL lang – sorry ;).
Info about sources of dilectio temlate – see footer.
Attention! All dilectio changes are not professional. Use it at your own risk! But it works on mine 😉 Check before you change your source…

Hola Brunon,

Is your Komentarze tab and Najnowsze tab really working? I’m sure would like to learn how did you do it?

Thank you for your head-ups. You’re always welcome.

Fyi, we are not professional, but we help and learn from each other to make Dilectio template user friendly via comments like these. We will be very grateful if you can contribute and share your expertise with us here.

Greetings and lots of love from Malaysia.

Hi again! Yes it works (Komentarze – Comments, Artykuły – Articles/Posts). “How to’s” steps to make it working I’ve already published in http://civitasprzedborz.blogspot.com/2009/04/dilectio-blogger-recent-postscomments.html thread. See you online next time. Best wishes for all. Have nice “changing dilectio” time 🙂

PS
Maybe on Sunday I’ll prepare a clear “dilectio” code to install (without PL language and widgets).

Thanks a lot. “Step by step” instruction how to make it working on my blog in “Blogger templates” article category. Best wishes 4all.

Let me asked again, “Is your komentarze tab and najnowsze tab really working?”

When you click the komentarze tab or najnowsze, it was suppose to show snippet of your recent comments or recent post.

But when I clicked yours, nothing happened. I don’t know how many komentarze tab and najnowsze you have on your blog but it’s located between your Przedbórz nad Pilicą and Google AdSense.

Anyway, thank you for sharing.

Greetings and lots of love from Malaysia.

i had use this template without any problems, thanks to the guidance from ArahMan7. u had help me a lot and i really appreciate it. please come to my blog if u have free time.. 😉

Wan – I can’t see your recent comments/post module under (as it can be seen in the original wordpress dilectio theme). Did you “turn off” the widget?

ArahMan7 – It works (recent comments/articles) on my blog correcty (Firefox). Tommorow I’ll send a link to some screenshots. As you can see there is a .js script inside the “new” Recent Comments/Articles used in my blog (see Blogger templates Dic\lectio thread in it). This code is published as a hot link on the free server. Maybe it’s the reason why some troubleshoots could be seen. I don’t know it yet. But I’ll make some test on my next testing blog soon using wow-dilectio-blogger templates as it was created (all files with the images and java scripts should be published as a hotlinks…). Greetings from Poland. Bunon.

P.S. Please contact with me in this topic via email – it makes me easier to contact a little “fast” 🙂

Brunon ~ i had same problem as Kadambari and Jessica. the recent comments and recent posts module only give a blank box when i click on it in the page elements section. i cannot use these at all. so i learn to setup recent comments widget through this website:

http://www.bloggerbuster.com/2007/08/recent-comments-widget-update-this.html

this widget is placed at the sidebar of my blog, not at the default position. i didn’t use recent posts widget. i hope this explanation would solve ur curiosity. 🙂

Arahman7, I need you to work your magic, I need your help again!!!

If you check out my site, you will see that the ‘recent comments’ does not display the most recent posts. You will see from the bottom left of the main blog, where I have implemented another Feedburner feed of my blog, that it works fine there.

So I went to the ‘troubleshooting’ section of feedburner and ran one of its tests. It came back with the following change suggestions. Problem is, I don’t know really how to make these changes! Help!

Ah my dear Lucia,

I’ve been trying to figure out Recent Posts/Comments widget for quite some times now. Several of our friends on this Dilectio’s comment section have been asking the same question, but I’ve yet an answer for it.

Rest assured, I shall keep on finding the solution coz I’m curious to know about it too (even though I don’t use Dilectio).

Anyway, thanks for the kind words.

Greetings and lots of love from Malaysia.

Can someone try to comment on my blog?

It seems the post a comment link is not working.I already tried some of the advices written here but still it doesnt work.

Please kindly check it out and give me some advice.

My blog is here: http://weddingsinthesky.blogspot.com

Thanks.

Hola Ron,

Have you checked

1. Dashboard –> Settings –> Comments – enable (checked) to allow all comments.

2. Dashboard –> New Post – below the editor, clicked to allow Reader Comments.

Hope that help.

Greetings and lots of love from Malaysia.

Thanks for the reply ArahMan7

I checked those options and all are fine and ok.

Please help

I would like a fix for the comments part also if you figure it out. Thx! Top Ten Dating Sites

Anyone please, help! My comments section still not working!

Hola Ron, Cupid,

I was wondering why all of a sudden you’re having these comment problems? What did you do last prior to these problems?

I guess I’ve to create a new blog using Dilectio to help me understand more about this template.

Only one way that I can think of right now. Please upload Dilectio again after saving all your gadgets.

I know it can be a bit frustrating if questions went unanswered. I’m going to create the new blog now and see if there’s any problem, especially with her comment’s section.

Greetings and lots of love from Malaysia.

@ArahMan7

I used the template yesterday, after uploading it, I immediately tested out its functionality, and there I found the comment problem.

Hola Ron,

It’s ready. I’ve not tested it yet, but try leaving a comment or two on Improving Dilectio. Read the post as well. Hopefully it will open other avenue to solve your problem.

Greetings and lots of love from Malaysia.

Thanks for the replies but still, nothing works.

I get this url when I tried to click on the post a comment link.

http://improvingdilectio.blogspot.com/2009/04/rons-question.html#comments

Hola Ron,

I guess I needed to change some code. Give me some times to sort it out, k?

Greetings and lots of love from Malaysia.

@ArahMan

Oh thanks so much, no worries about it. It is your theme, and I am just borrowing it. Thanks a lot again.

Hola Ron,

Sorry, can’t make inline comment working, but the pop-up window is working fine. At least, someone can leave a comment. Be my guest, be the first to leave a comment on my new blog.

It’s really simple. From Dashboard –> Settings –> Comments and clicked on Pop-up window.

Greetings and lots of love from Malaysia.

Thanks, will try it again now.

Hola Ron,

Yes! Yes! Yes! I got it! I got it at last to implement inline comment for my new blog.

I gonna create a new post about it. Just wait for it, hehehe!

Anyway, I gotta thank you for making me finding the solution non-stop. Next on the list will be for Lucia and Kristopher Perovic for their Recent Post/Comment’s problem.

See you around, my friend.

Greetings and lots of love from Malaysia.
