When I tried to download this one and open the Readme file, it did not work. Any advice?

Edu 18 September 2008 at 2:52
Una consulta:
Quiero eliminar todo lo referente a la fecha (ya he quitado el .gif) pero no consigo borrar la fecha. QUé sección de código debo eliminar?
Claudia 18 September 2008 at 15:03
Edu,
Si quieres sacar la fecha de arriba, tienes que eliminar dos scripts de la plantilla, que están entre div class=’date-tab’ y /div (con los artilugios expandidos). Mira la vista previa antes de guardar.
* No puedo poner <> acá, pero igual se entiende, no?
cloe 18 September 2008 at 16:22
hola, tengo un problema con la fecha.. em sale undefined en la etiqueta de lado izquierdo.. mira te dejo el blog para q veas el error..
podrías ayudarme?!
the date on the label at left side has a problem, it keeps showing “undefined”.. could you help me?
saludos y gracias!
C.
Claudia 18 September 2008 at 16:34
Cloe, tienes que cambiar el formato de la hora en Configuración/Formato. En vez de “2:32 PM”, por ejemplo, debe verse la fecha de hoy, es decir, algo como “Jueves, Septiembre 18, 2008”.

I have downloaded this template and put it on blogger – How do you remove the undefined tabs on the side to say something besides undefined?? I have looked for the code in the HTML edit and I can’t find it??

April, read the instructions (the link is above).

Christina 20 September 2008 at 9:26
I added the template and now I cannot add any new blogs, login, look at my settings or anything!! Any advice??? I need to access my blog!!
Christina 20 September 2008 at 9:27
If you are having problems adding the layout make sure it is unzipped, and that when you browse you select the unzipped file, not the zipped one!
tERE 20 September 2008 at 20:37
que hermosa!!!
excelente trabajo!
April 21 September 2008 at 2:59
Thank you so much – sorry I didn’t see the clickable link listed above!
Claudia 21 September 2008 at 6:59
A quienes les aparece la fecha como “Undefined”, lean mi comentario de más arriba, el que está en español ;)
A quienes les aparece un error, ese error es de Blogger, no de la plantilla, porque ya la probé. A veces tratando con Internet Explorer funciona bien.
If you want to see the friends & links widget, add your links there :) If you don’t do that, it won’t be shown.
If you want to show 5 of your recent posts instead of all your entries, just edit the respective widget. Link Your feed url for recent posts: http://YOURBLOGNAME.blogspot.com/feeds/comments/default
Yien 21 September 2008 at 8:04
Hello,
I know this has been answered before, but i have ‘undefined’ where I should have date/time.
I don’t speak Spanish, so don’t understand your reply to that question. Sorry.
Could you please help?
Christina 21 September 2008 at 17:21
Again, how do I post new blogs, edit my layout or do anything on my blog now?? I have no access to even change the layout back!! PLEASE HELP
Laura 22 September 2008 at 14:19
Hola! Estoy intentando utilizar esta plantilla, pero no se si es que no lo hago bien. El problema es que me dice que algo va mal con el xml. ¿Pódriais ayudarme? Gracias
Claudia 22 September 2008 at 18:32
Yien: Read the instructions. The link for installation and settings is above.
Christina: log into your Blogger account and post from your panel ;)
Laura: ¿Cuál es el mensaje de error? A ver si puedo ayudarte ;)
June 22 September 2008 at 19:18
Porfavor necesito que alguien me ayude. No entiendo como poner para que solo se vean 5 post recientes. Porque realmente se agregan como diez y yo solo quiero que hayan 5.
Agrareceria mucho si alguien me respondiera, y me ayude.
Allie 22 September 2008 at 20:39
To fix the date showing up as “Undefined”, you have to go to the “formatting” tab & BOTH “Date Header format” and “Timestap format” have to be a date (e.g. 9.22.08). It uses the Month from one of those and the day’s date from the other; you won’t have a time stamp. Took me a bit of fiddling to figure that out!
Patrick 23 September 2008 at 5:25
First of all, thanks for the template. I love it.
but just one question.. i know you have to add the respective gadget to remove the ‘half’ friends and links picture, but which gadget do we actually add? or is there a way to remove the friends and links, because i dont actually use them.
thanks!
Claudia 23 September 2008 at 17:04
June: Sólo tienes que editar el widget correspondiente en Diseño/Elementos, y seleccionar la opción “5”.
Patrick: Remove that widget from Layout/Page elements ;)
Lorena 23 September 2008 at 21:23
Antes de todo quiero decirte que me fascina tu Template.
Pero tengo una pregunta. En ”Recent Post” se agregan todos mis post (y ya llevo como 12) solo quisiera que se muestren los mas recientes, 5 como maximo.
¿Me podrias ayudar?
Otra vez felicitaciones por el Template esta muy bueno.
Jennifer 23 September 2008 at 21:56
I’m fairly new to this blog stuff…How do you edit the tabs at the top? Can you change the words “home”, “about”, and “archive”? And can you make it link to a different page??? How? Thank you!
Tny 23 September 2008 at 22:53

Hola claudia, que alegría que hables español, tengo varias preguntas que hacer y perdona, pq soy nueva en esto y estoy algo perdida.
me he descargado esta plantilla preciosa y aunque estoy teniedno problemas no me resisto a tenerla, por eso estoy aqui.
Creo que no se ha descargado bien pq abajo a la derecha se corta la frase–>friends and link, luego la pregunta what is this place? me sale abajo al final del todo. En el titulo no me deja poner ninguna descripción y bueno ya lo de undefined pero ya he leido la solucion.
me podrás ayudar? es que necesito esta plantilla, me encanta!!!!
muchisimas gracias.

Hi Claudia,
Thanks for the nice layout! :)
I just have one problem, the date area says “Undefined”. Please help. You can click on my link to see the actual page.
Thanks again!
Heather 25 September 2008 at 9:38
Hi Claudia,
I LOVE this template.. it is so fun and exactly what I’ve been looking for! thank you!
I do have one question. I am having the same problem as Christina though.. when I upload the layout.. I no longer have my blogger toolbar, with the “new post, customize, etc..” options. I have searched all the posts and poked around on my internet settings but just can’t figure it out.. please advise!
Thank you! And by the way, I’ve been very impressed with how helpful you’ve been to everyone leaving questions here. That’s great!
Claudia 25 September 2008 at 12:57
Jennifer: You can’t change the tabs at the top unless you replace that images, but it isn’t easy to do.
——————-
Sara: Para cambiar las imágenes, tienes que buscar lo siguiente:
‘/’
Reemplaza la línea del medio (/) por el enlace correspondiente a “Home” “About” y “Archives”. El código completo no lo puedo postear aquí.
——————-
Mariah:
El widget de friends y links sale cortado porque tienes que agregar los links de tus sitios favoritos ahí. Una vez que lo hagas, se verá completo ;)
Para editar la sección “What is this place?” debes ir a la edición de HTML, expandir los artilugios y buscar el texto “© 2008” (sin las comillas). Es la única forma, porque no hay un widget en ese lugar.
——————-
Heather:
You may access from your Blogger panel. It is normal you can’t see your toolbar (Blogger navbar), because it’s usually removered by the designers. Maybe they think it’s ugly and not very useful (I do) :p.
To make it easy, add http://www.blogger.com/home?pli=1 to your bookmarks and stay logged in ;)
——————-
I won’t reply recently answered questions :( Please, read all the comments and the instructions if you did’t.
Heather 25 September 2008 at 17:37
You’re the woman!! thank you!
Sara 26 September 2008 at 3:07
Mil gracias :)
Grazie mille!
Un saluto, Sara
Heather 26 September 2008 at 12:50
Claudia,
I know you said you wouldn’t reply.. but I’m hoping you might :) I just have one main issue with the template. I love everything about it.. except for the “misc debris” little tag that goes next to everything extra. check out my blog to see.. next to every friend’s blog and every link it is there.. it’s way too much. Is there an easy way to get around it or am I stuck with it? I hope not because I really do love this and my husband who is also a designer loves it too! I think it would be fun next to the headings of the misc. things.. but not next to every line??
thanks again,
H

Hi,
I’ve read the instruction and said that I have to download the template through the other website. The problem is the website does not provide the html, they only provided the psd file. Any advice how can I download the html version? Or do I have to pay to convert the file into html?
Many thanks,
Galuh
Claudia 29 September 2008 at 0:44
Heather: look for “txt-misc-debris.gif” image in Layout/Edit HTML and delete that complete url ;)
Galuh: There isn’t a html version. Blogger uses xml.
Heather 29 September 2008 at 16:03
Ah.. much better! thank you. You configure your html a little differently than blogger does so I was having a hard time finding it.. I’m a little new at editing html.
Thanks a million.. now it’s PERFECT!

Yunni 30 September 2008 at 3:11
Hi I LOVVVEEEE this layout! Thank you so much!
I’ve got a few problem though… My date won’t show. It shows “undefined” for both the month and date. What should I do? Also the “About” and “Archives” page… are they supposed to link to another page? Coz it’s only linking back to the main blog address so far. Please help :D
Yunni 30 September 2008 at 3:32
That’s ok… I solved the date undefined part. :D Still working on the “About” and “Archives” page.. Don’t know what link to replace the “/”
Galuh 30 September 2008 at 19:40
Dear Claudia,
Sorry, what I meant was I could not find xml file in that website. I just found php file. Can you give me a direction which part of that website I should download it.
Thanks,
galuh
Aura 1 October 2008 at 10:24
Hola Claudia
Antes que nada GRACIAS por el apoyo, tenía varios problemas sin embargo el apoyo que le has dado a algunos usuarios me sirvió a mi también.
Una pregunta, he tratado de utilizar el buscador sin embargo este presenta problemas ya que “no busca nada” jejeje… y no sé como configurar su funcionamiento, además también no sé como configurar la sección de “Categories”, “About”, “Archives” y “home”… sé que son muchas preguntas, pero realmente soy nueva en el mundo de los Blogs.
MIL GRACIAS!!!

Hi!
Absolutely love this design – looks fabulous!
However…just curious as to why recent posts & categories are locked & uneditable (according to the instructions)? Listing 12 recent posts seems to throw my page off a bit & I’d like to cut it down to 5…plus I don’t use categories, so would like to remove that altogether but can’t as it’s locked (on the edit layout page in blogger).
Thanks for such a wonderful template!
epiphany 2 October 2008 at 11:10
I’ve worked out how to unlock them but still can’t work out how to reduce the number of recent posts (short of removing the widget altogether)…& even if I remove these, the graphics (“recent posts,” “categories” & half of “friends & links”) are still showing up on my page.
Thanks for any help.
