You might have seen the Pencil , Screwdriver and Spanner links on blogger. It seems like these icons appear only when you are logged in to your blog. In todays tutorial I am going to share and little blogger hack about how to hide pencil (quick edit), Wrench Spanner (Quick edit Gadget). I am writing this tutorial because I get asked by a lot of my blog readers how they can get rid of those quick edit icons so if you have seen those quick edit icons under your posts and the little wrench icons in the sidebar on your blog you maybe thinking how do I get rid of them. You can also see icons below in screen shoots. Once you have hide the wrench icons and quick edit, you can see the changes while you are refresh the blog page.
If we think about user friendly features they are useful if you need to quickly edit your blog post's or a widget in the sidebar you can just click them to instantly edit your post or widget they are only shown to the admin of the blog if you log out you shouldn't see them.
so to hide the quick edit icon below the post footer go to Blogger Dashboard>> layout >> and click the edit link for the blog posts widget and uncheck the checkbox titled "Show Quick Editing" then click on save button and your done…!!!!
each widget you have in the sidebar section will have one of them so to save time having to remove each one of them just paste the following code after the opening <b:skin> tag or before closing </b:skin> tag in your template to hide them.
.quickedit{display:none;}
Save The Template and look at your Page Source Once again. You will find that those links are no longer there.
If the Wrench Link of the Followers Gadget Cannot be removed, and you really want to remove that, then remove the Followers Gadget and Add it as a HTML/ JavaScript Gadget with the Code from Google Friend Connect.
Pinning an image just got easier and more intuitive with this hover button. You may have noticed that some professional photographer website have custom pinterest hover button for their website's professional images, with Word Press it’s quite straightforward, whereas with Blogger it can be much more complicated, mostly for those who are hate modifying the code for their blog template.Now luckily we're excited to tell that pinterest developer team finally made an official image hover pin it button for blogger. The on hover pin it button appear just like the regular pin it button, but it only shows up when a person mouse over an image.The pin it button should disappear again when your mouse-cursor is not on the image anymore.They look great on pages with lots of images and might look and feel better if your design is on the minimal side. Pinterest developer team made it very easy to install on your blogger blog. It only takes one line of code to get the button on mouse over the image. So follow the simple step below.
No HTML is required for hoverbuttons; all you have to do is load the JavaScript listed below. Once you have this installed, images should show a Pin It button when hovered over. (If you're already running pinit.js, just add the data-pin-hover="true" attribute to the existing SCRIPT tag.)
1. Go to your blogger dashboard>>Template>> Edit HTML
2. and find the following code in your template code.
</body>
3. and put it just above your closing </BODY>
tag. (provided by pinterst).
4. Click on save button and you're done..!!!
<script type="text/javascript" data-pin-hover="true" src="//assets.pinterest.com/js/pinit.js"></script>
Note:- If you are already using pinterest pin it button then just add following attribute code in pinterest script tag.
data-pin-hover="ture"
You can see complete script above in step 3.
Note:- If you're not already running pinit.js on your page, please visit the Widget Builder to find out more about the Pin It button and the rest of Pinterest's fleet of handy widgets.
CSS background images, images that are under 80 by 80 pixels in size, images that have the data-pin-no-hover="true" attribute set, images that have the nopin="nopin" attribute set, and images whose SRC attribute starts with data: won't show hover buttons.
You can definitely still use Pinterest regular Pin It button, and we think these new hover buttons are pretty nice, too..!!
Laptops are one of the most essential gadgets for businessmen these days. Businessmen carry out their each and every business tasks with the help of laptops alone. Hence they need a good company laptop with which they can work for long periods without any interruption. Laptops need to be maintained properly for good usage. What are the things that we need to keep in mind while using laptop? How to use a laptop smoothly so that it lives longer? Let us see them in detail.
Laptop batteries:
This is the first thing that gets damaged in any laptop. But it is entirely in our own hands to ensure the safety of our laptop by avoiding the damages that happen to the laptop. Battery of the laptop needs to be charged and discharged at regular intervals. If you overcharge the battery, it will damage the battery and it will lose its strength very quickly. It is always advisable to use the laptop after charging the battery. Don't use the laptop while it is still getting charged, because that will reduce its battery life.
Always keep the laptop in a clean and dry place. This is very important because the dust and moisture are the biggest enemies of laptops. If the dust and water get into the laptop motherboards, it will damage the laptop completely and you need to take it to the person who knows to repair it. So always ensure that you keep it in a dry place.
Use a clean piece of cloth to wipe the screen of your laptop. Dust gets gathered on the screen and that makes it look blurred. So wiping it with a clean cloth is the best solution for the problem. That will make the laptop look completely new again. This is very important if you want to work with it without getting any interruptions in the middle while you are working. Wipe even the back cover of the laptop also with a clean piece of cloth.
Always use a laptop cooler for keeping it cool. If you are performing several tasks at the same time on your laptop such as listening to the music, checking the mail and typing etc, that will affect the performance of the laptop when it gets overheated. So using a good laptop cooler will help you to solve that problem. These days, every laptop comes with cooling system inside it, but sometimes still those arrangements may seem insufficient and we need to depend on additional coolers for keeping it cool.
Finally, any laptop needs to be maintained properly in terms of the memory used in them. Organize the components of different local disks properly and make separate folders for different types of files. That will help you to keep your laptop in the best condition. Usually a laptop may have different types of files like word files, PowerPoint files and spreadsheet files etc. all these files should be kept in separate folders and that makes it easy for you to search the particular file that you need.
About author:I am a notebook computer enthusiasts, a variety of notebook computers equipped with very familiar, particularly keen on laptop cooler, laptop batteries aspects of various information.
When your PC starts its steady decline into sloth-like speeds, the first thing you’d love to do (besides beating it Office Space-style) is head straight to the mall for a fancy new machine. But the reality is there are easy changes you can make to speed up your computer. When I say to delete unwanted files, I do not mean you should go around your computer and delete any file you do not want. In this case, I’m talking about the files that you have created yourself, and are totally aware of what they are. For example if you created a Microsoft word document and you no longer need it, and never will, then I suggest you delete that file. This is the kind of junk that clogs up your computer. You have to ask yourself, “Do you really need it?” Files that you have created such as documents and image files can be safely deleted by going to the file on your computer, right clicking on its, and choosing delete from the menu. Keeping your computer or organized and junk free, is a great way to speed up your computer.

There are also a couple of issues about server requests which makes our blog load lazily. Your site’s load time may hurt you visitors however, to decrease server requests in your Blogger blog we use some plugins or javascript. But before I began to show what plugins can help our blog to load faster. When visitors first land on your blog there may be a number of images which need to be processed. This could take just a couple seconds or even 8-10 extra seconds for the request to finish. Waiting around for that long can get tiresome and you’ll lose people’s interest rather quickly. I have noticed the longest waiting times for blog posts often contain image galleries. These galleries may hold website design showcases, or any page/article with lots of images. If your readers have speedy Internet access this probably won’t become much of a burden. But is the risky burden even worthwhile? I feel these instances are great examples for when lazy loading could honestly benefit the readers. All images on the page will be held with placeholders until the user scrolls down further and hits each image in succession. There are often people who complain about this feature but I don’t see any problems. Personally I’ve never been annoyed by the effect and it actually seems like a wise method for reducing server loads. If you want see lazy loading effect more than 1 you need clear your browser cache and shift-reload to test again on demo page.
Note:- Practically everyone has JavaScript enabled. However there are cases when you want to show the real images even if request come from client which does not support JavaScript. Google crawlers are one good candidate. Google crawlers do not execute JavaScript but also seem to ignore noscript content. To degrade gracefully when JavaScript is not enabled you can include the real image tag inside <noscript>
block. More Documentation This is only for advance user.(Not A Beginner)
It improves your website’s performance by loading your website images lazily. This includes:
1. Post images
2. Post Thumbnails
3. Gravatar images and
4. iframe content
These images will loaded only when your visitors scroll closer to them.
Plugin has been tested with Safari 5.1, Safari 6, Chrome 20, Firefox 12 on OSX and Chrome 20, IE 8 and IE 9 on Windows and Safari 5.1 on iOS 5 both iPhone and iPad.
1. Go to your Blogger Dashboard>> Template>> Edit Html

A Plugin Created by Mika Tuupola. We are thank full to mika for this great effort. This plugin very useful for Image Gallery and also for your portfolio websites.
The number of internet users are turning into publishers at a fastest rate, therefore you must be careful when applying a tutorial to your blog and extra careful when the tutorial talks of Jquery and SEO. I am observing baseless SEO tips coming from new bloggers that causes more harm to blogs at long term then a short term relief. Almost every new blogger has started sharing his own ideas of SEO and writing codes. This is surely encouraging but on the other side incorrect knowledge has caused several blogs to be hit by Google penalties such as Panda and Penguin.
Please let me know if you want any help here. I hope this technique would further help developers to create more interesting blogger templates and contribute further to the blogosphere community. I would love to hear your feedback on this. Please let us know of your precious views so that we could improve it further if needed. Thanks for reading our post. and don’t forget to subscribe our blog by using email notification, Facebook page or by following our twitter page. Thanks for reading our post.
Navigating through a website using the keyboard arrow keys is really useful as you don't have to look around the page for the Newer or Older page links. You might have already seen this feature on many top blogs.It’s really easy to implement this feature on your Blogger Blog.You just have to add the arrow key navigation script to your blogger blog. This feature work on Index, Archive, Post, Statics Page as well. Just using right arrow or left arrow keyboard to navigate older and newer post. To implement this feature on your blog is very easy.
For live Demo, let press any arrow key to navigate older or newer post from this page.
1. Go To Your Blogger Dashboard>> Template>> Edit HTML>>
2. and find the following code. </head>
3. and paste the following script before/above </head>
<script type='text/javascript'>document.onkeyup = function(event){if (document.activeElement.nodeName ==
'TEXTAREA' || document.activeElement.nodeName == 'INPUT') return;event = event ||
window.event;switch(event.keyCode){case 37:var newerLink =
document.getElementById('Blog1_blog-pager-newer-link');if(newerLink !=null) window.location.href =
newerLink.href;break;case 39:var olderLink = document.getElementById('Blog1_blog-pager-older-link');if(olderLink!=null)
window.location.href = olderLink.href;}};</script>
You may want to let visitors know that they can navigate to newer/older posts using the arrow key as this is not a default feature of Blogger. For example, you could add a widget in your layout explaining the arrow key navigation.
The code is self explanatory and would not trouble many of you. If you have any questions then please do not hesitate to let me know. I hope this little effort may prove helpful for most of you. Thank you for taking time and reading this tutorial. Peace and blessings.
Blogger it's a very powerful platform to publish your blog. It's free and with some features which you can customize how you prefer, without limits. In this post I want to illustrate some tips which can help you to improve your Blogger template to design a professional layout for your blog. Most popular blogs have a number of blog design elements in common. Learn about ten of the most important blog design Tips your blog must have in order to have a chance at success. Read These 10 Tips To Make Your Blog Like Professional.
That’s mean the fonts you choose should be large enough to be read on high resolution monitors, and they should be simple enough to be legible. In other words, don't choose a highly stylized font. Stick with Georgia, Verdana or another Web-friendly font. Also, make sure the text on your blog is easy to scan quickly. Clean blog design make your blog comfy for your readers to read and see the blog content as long as they want. A good looking blog design increase the number of your blog visitors/readers.
Try to use as less variety of fonts as possible. Always use simple and plain fonts like Arial, Verdana so that every lay man visiting your blog will easily understand the whole content of your page. Only use bold and Italic cases in dire need. Different font color may also be applied to the hyperlinked text. The underline should only be used for Hyperlinks and the text will only be underlined on mouse over event.
If you want that your blog looks professional then design a cool and awesome looking logo for your blog. For making a professional logo I suggest you to use Adobe Photoshop or Adobe Illustrator or Corel Draw any one on which you feel handy. (any version of your interest). You can also use simple or plain text with attractive font style to make your blog Title. Different superb, stylish and state of the art fonts can be chosen free of cost for your blog title from Google Web Font Directory.
Header and footer represent 80% of your blog design. Instead of putting just copyright content in footer, you should also use Social Sharing, Your Logo, Powered by logo and may also be Recent Posts Widgets in your footer section. It will make your footer super cool. When people can't find what they're looking for on your blog, they often scroll to the footer to find blog-wide links such as a contact us links, site map link, and so on. We Suggest to use images as header and footer background instead of solid background color.
Make it easy for visitors to find your content. Don't hinder their visit by using interstitial ads or splash pages. In other words, don't give them a chance to click away from your blog when they land on it. Your navigation menu should be designed to display a complete summary of your whole blog.
Make sure that you choose stylish and cool widgets of your blog but most of people forget a big thing while designing a blog that they apply too many popups and widgets in their blogs. We suggest to those people that don’t do this because readers can only afford a pop up only for 1 time when they visit your blog, but don’t install pop ups that appears every time they clicks on a new page –that behavior will annoy your visitors. A very huge collection of free plugins are available on internet for blogger but it doesn’t mean that you use all of them in your blog widget section, remember 1 think make your blog looking stylish but in a simple ways. Remember the saying “keep it simple stupid”
Only plain text content is not good for your blog. In blog, you should add unique and attractive images in your post. Images can enhance the look of your blog but only if you use sharp with light weight and close concern with your post. Your images should give a close picture of your post. A header can be made more impressive with the use of an image portraying the whole theme of your blog. Header image should be clear enough to read and sharp enough to understand. Adobe Photoshop or Adobe Illustrator or CorelDraw can be used as per your choice and experty.
SEO (Search Engine Optimization) plays an important role to words improving the number of visitors on your blog. It is the best and one of the important part of your blog. Every Search engine as has its own SEO (Search Engine Optimization) System. Different Search Engines have different steps to get maximum optimization. Having Search Engine Friendly Navigation basically means creating a structure that search engines can follow. A major culprit in search engines not being able to find a website is due to the links being images instead of text. So make sure your links should be in plain text. We need to follow these tips to Make SEO Friendly Blog and Template.
The most perfect thing is design your own template. But if you’re not skilled with template development you can find a great number of free template designers. That can help, guide and even give you the whole template only for the cost of a simple link at the bottom of your blog. Some of these designer can be found on internet. We Searching Best Designer Websites on internet.
Lastly I recommend to be as simple as you can in your writing. Your words should be as simple as only a simple man with little knowledge of the topic under discussion would have enough knowledge after reading your content. All of your content should be brief and to the point extra and unnecessary detail should be avoided at any cost. Originality of your content is the most important ingredients of your blog. I know you thinking right know, why I am saying this?
Answer to the above question is that all the above referred details are the key to success in achieving maximum number of visitors at your blog. This is just a humble attempt to contribute a little knowledge, that I have, to all the visitors, but this is not the all, We recommend you to read more and more and so on.
