Attitude, The Ultimate Power: Aug 19, 2007

Why read Monday Morning Power?

You will find a consistency and a focus in all of my content that can change your attitude which can fuel a positive change in your life, if you want it to. If you are happy with your attitude and your life and see no reason for changing, then you either already have a PMA (Positive Mental Attitude), or you are a victim and want to hold onto your misery. These postings will then serve to fortify the person with PMA, or, hopefully, convince the "victim" that there is a better way. This site will contain essays, poems, stories, humor and links, all with the same goal: The pursuit, capture, care and feeding of a Positive Mental Attitude. I have had readers tell me that they have spent hours on my site and feel great about themselves both during and after. I log onto my own site frequently to help fuel my attitude; I hope you will as well.

From 2 Columns to 3 Columns, Successfully!

Create a test blog using the same template that your current blog is on.
Copy over some posts, your blog header and some of your side bar stuff, just some
Go to this site: http://weblensblogs.blogspot.com/2007/04/3-column-widgets-compliant-blogger.html and read the post
Go to the “New Widget Version” http://www.weblens.org/3%20column%20widgets.txt
“Select all”
“Copy”
Open up “Notepad” and “Paste”
Save
On your test site go to “Template”, “Edit HTML”
Check off “Expand Widget Templates”
“Select All”
“Copy”
Open up “Notepad” and “Paste”, then save
Go back and erase the code form your template on the test blog
Go back to the notepad and “Select All” and then “Copy” (the new code)
“Paste” the new code where the old code was
Click “save template”
You will lose most of your sidebar information, including all widgets.
“View Blog”
Take a look and see if you like it.
If you do, then copy everything form your sidebar, including all widgets, from your old blog over to the test blog and put them in the order that pleases you.
No need to copy “Labels”, “Archives”, “Posts” or blog header
If you are satisfied, then do it for real on your site.
When completed, copy back the widgets to your real blog
Fine tune; font sizes and colors.
You are done.
