Line-Height

Below is not a solution to why line-height may arbitrarily change in your posts, but it is a fix. When that line-height change happens, try the following for the post text:

<div style="line-height: 18px;">TEXT</div>

You may need a different number (of px) to match your own blog post, so see how it adjusts with larger and smaller numbers. .

You could avoid the aggravation of typing it each time by putting the code above in the Settings-Post Template and it would be inserted for you already in each new post—then you can either use, delete, or ignore it.

Divider!

Dashboard Example

These are some old instructions and I'll update it when I feel like it. The screen has changed. Sorry.

Above screenshot shows several blogs on the left, the Edit Profile section on the right, and the Language drop-down menu below that.

Edit Profile, to state the obvious, is where you go to paste the url for your Profile Photo.

Revert To Never-Never-Land?

I found a curious thing, though I may be among the last to discover it. I just took a recently-created blog, played with it, then subjected it to the "Revert to Classic" button. Oddly enough, the system "reverted" it even though it had never been a classic template. I didn't test everything about it, but I thought it was very curious. Maybe someday I'll think of some use for this marvellous piece of information. Till then, la di dah...

Table for Horizontal Photos In Post

Ronald	Southern

Haven't done any of those in a while. Tedious.

[Those of you wishing to cut to the chase quickly, start reading the large yellow-highlight area below, which is below the fourth straight red line.]

Below is the code that makes a small table like the one above have photos side by side:

<center><table border=4 width=95%><tr><th align=center>Ronald</th> <th align=center>Southern</th></tr><tr><td><img src=\"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzaOEgOjpEK1oRv_I88gykcbl-wVKUiaG4nUQTbzGx7OYC3F7ugr-QGGpk7nkrUl9CmLjxGYJeuuwlbY_sHmShNTEHKfSvwho-qveJ9aXts9OR9qeLwErBJvBpwa4pmQ1LeSFP/s1600/twinkiebite.gif\" /> </td> <td><img src=\"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzaOEgOjpEK1oRv_I88gykcbl-wVKUiaG4nUQTbzGx7OYC3F7ugr-QGGpk7nkrUl9CmLjxGYJeuuwlbY_sHmShNTEHKfSvwho-qveJ9aXts9OR9qeLwErBJvBpwa4pmQ1LeSFP/s1600/twinkiebite.gif\" /> </td></tr></table> </center>

A MORE SIMPLISTIC SAMPLE OF A TABLE (followed by its code) is shown below:

PICTURE

OR TEXT

<table border=2>
<tr>
<td>PICTURE</td>
<td>OR TEXT</td>
</tr>
</table>

PREVENT LINE BREAKS:

In order for the Table not to cause extra line breaks in Blogger posts, there are two methods:

Method #1: You may need to copy it out like this (no line breaks of your own):

<table border=2><tr><td>PICTURE</td><td>OR TEXT</td></tr></table>

--To create additional row(s), add another set of "table records" such as

<tr><td>picture or text</td></tr>

as needed. Place them after the first table record and before the end tag, </table>.

--Remember that the photos cannot exceed the width of the area where you are placing them or else it will create problems, probably your sidebar being pushed down.

---

Method #2: This is something I've tried a number of times now. It does seem to be very effective, especially if you're going to use tables often. It is not good, though, for creating a table around a list (numbered or otherwise) because it will remove the page breaks and show the list as if it's a regular paragraph. It'll make the info resemble a traffic jam. This method makes the change in this way, using css:

Table Formatting In CSS

---

My explanation of the Table Formatting (Method #2) which I learned from the site above is as follows--changing the table in the CSS: Place the following line of code in your CSS: .nobr br { display: none } Then place the DIV tags around your table as below: <div class=nobr> <table border=2> <tr> <td>PICTURE</td> <td>OR TEXT</td> </tr> </table> </div>

How To Hide Comments

Turn Off Comments
Go to Settings, Go to Comments, Go to the first item (Comment again), Now select one of the three choices. Select Hide, not Show and make sure that selection is not highlighted. Your comments will not appear to your readers after this. Be sure to scroll down the page and click on Save Settings when you're finished.

Where Is "Style" In New Blogger?

When you open the template, move to the Edit Html tab and click it. Search for "Body" and other Style (CSS) items that you might already be familiar with from Classic Blogger, though they are not called "Style" any more in New Blogger templates! (Note: CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheets). You might see something like this: body { background:oldlace; url("http://www.blogblog.com/harbor/rocks.jpg") no-repeat right bottom; background-attachment:fixed; margin:0; padding:0; font:x-small Georgia, Serif; color:$textcolor; font-size/* */:/**/small; font-size: /**/small; } At that point you are in the Style (or CSS) section.
