How to add sticky post and Adsense in blogger
Let's suppose you want to feature a sticky post at the top of your
Blogger posts, or perhaps you'd like to insert an AdSense box or site
search facility. At present, there is no facility to do this in the
default Blogger layouts system. But there are two ways around this
problem.
Change the post date to a future time:
This is the easiest method, and is most useful for those who need a
sticky post, perhaps about a future event after which time the post need
not be at the top of other posts. To do this, simply click on "Post
Options" beneath the type box when you are editing your post and change
the date to somewhere in the future. Blogger doesn't have the facility
to publish posts on a future date, so your "sticky post" will remain at
the top of your main column until this date has passed.
Add a new page element:
This is a more
permanant, neater and convenient way to add a "sticky post" to the top
of your main column. Uses for this may include a search box, a message
about your blog, or Adsense/banner ads. You'll notice in the default
Blogger layout for your template that there is no "Add a page elenent"
in the posts box. You can change this by following these steps:
- Go to Page Elements>Edit HTML in your blogger dashboard. You don't need to expand the widget templates for this hack.
- Find the following section of code:
<div id='main-wrapper'> <b:section class='main' id='main' showaddelement='no'><b:widget id='Blog1' locked='true' title='Blog Posts' type='Blog'/></b:section> </div>
This section relates to the "Posts" section in your layout. - Notice the part which says: <b:section class='main' id='main' showaddelement='no'> You need to change this to "yes" to allow other elements to be added to the posts section.
- Save your template and take a look at your "Page Elements". You should now see an "Add Page Element" link in the posts section (click image for an enlargement):
