Some more on blogging

I have found some more customizing methods on blogs based on blogger. Here are some of them and I think it's better if you have a backup of the template before try on these.
  1. Add new column - This is a simple task and what you need is only a little knowledge in CSS and HTML.Here are the steps to add new column on your blog and I have done it based on template "Minima". Don't worry you just have to do a slight change to apply these on other templates.

    1. You have to write a new CSS class for the new column that's going to insert.

      For eg:
      #left-sidebar-wrapper {
      float: left ;width: 220px;
      }

      Other than this example you can write more for the CSS class.

    2. Before the <div id="main-wrapper"> tag you have to define the div tag of new column. So paste the code given below immediately before the main-wrapper div tag.

      <div id='left-sidebar-wrapper'>
      <b:section class='sidebar' id='left-sidebar' preferred='yes'/>
      </div>
      Now you have added the new column. But have to do some more to view it on the blog.

    3. Still the outer-wrapper (the whole big div in the blog) has no room to accommodate new column so you have to find the CSS class of it as #outer-wrapper and increase the width by the amount that you wish to give for the new column.

    4. And also increase the width of the #header-wrapper by the same amount.

    5. According to this example you have to increase all by 220px.

    6. Now add some elements to new column and take a look at the blog you will find that it sticks with the middle column so you just have to give a left margin to CSS class #main-wrapper like margin-left: 20px;


  2. Remove the navigation bar - As you all can see on the blogs we make under blogger we can see a navigation bar on the top.Whats if you don't like it !!! Here is the solution.

    #navbar-iframe {
    display: none !important;
    }

    Paste this part of code just before the /* Variable definitions on your blog HTML.
If you have come up with any difficulties on applying these please add a comment regarding it and hope you'll hear the solution from me immediately.

    Do u know file format called "DjVu". DjVu (pronounced déjà vu) is a computer file format designed primarily to store scanned images, especially those containing text and line drawings.This allows for high quality, readable images to be stored in a minimum of space, so that they can be made available on the web.DjVu has been promoted as an alternative to PDF

    Try to get more on following links.....

Google API v3 with PHP using Blogger service

It was really hard for me to understand how the Google APIs are working at the first point and took few days for me to figure out. But after a successful working prototype it seems very easy. And also when I am searching for a simple example I was unable to find a good one that I can understand. So let me list down step by step what I have done with URLs and as simple as I can. Create a Google app location -  https://code.google.com/apis/console Switch on the "Blogger API v3" Get the latest APIs client library for PHP location -  https://code.google.com/p/google-api-php-client/downloads/list Upload the files to your host location on on localhost Extract the files to folder  named "GoogleClientApi" Create your php file outside of the folder  Copy paste following code into the file and do the changes as needed  By changing the scope and the service object you can access all the services that is given by Google APIs through the PHP API library se

My two cents on new year resolution

What is the plan for the new year ? - need to think on what are we trying achieve during next year 2018 - basically the life goals - may be personal or professional - and also it should be realistic (not something like going to Mars ;)) Why we need a plan for the new year ? - basically a goal without a plan is a DREAM - And also should be able to measure (what you cannot measure, you cannot manage) How to prepare a new Year resolution/plan ? - Leave some buffer time - Make changes during the year (life is changing/evolving) - Plan is only for you (do not share it) - When a milestone is achieved, celebrate - Try to stick to the plan - otherwise no point of planing

Assets and Liabilities as Rich Dad, Poor Dad explains

I was reading "The rich dad poor dad by Robert Kiyosaki" here is a one point that he mentions on that. Basically Asset as he says is little bit different than on books. If something puts money in your pocket it is a asset. And Liabilities are the ones that takes money out of your pocket. OK for example a house or a car may seems like an Asset but it takes money out of you pocket to maintain them. But if you rent them or make them to make money at the end of the day you can convert it to a asset. Basically that what rich people do. They buy assets. Middle class buy liabilities (thinking those are assets) and stuff (a lot of them that not used or that not needed). Lower class buy to consume (basic needs like foods).
