Add Links To Sidebar
Question
How can I add my own links to the sidebar on my weblog page?
Answer
Templates in Version 3.2 and Higher
You will need to edit your Main Index Template and insert the appropriate HTML code within the sidebar area.
Look for the following code in the Main Index Template:
<div id="beta">
<div id="beta-inner" class="pkg">
Then insert the following HTML after that section, wherever you want the links to appear. As an example, if you'd like the display to appear similar to that for the Recent Posts listing in the same template, you might add a section like this:
<div class="module-archives module">
<h2 class="module-header">My Links</h2>
<div class="module-content">
<ul class="module-list">
<li class="module-list-item"><a href="http://www.example.com">Link Text</a></li>
<li class="module-list-item"><a href="http://www.example.com">Link Text</a></li>
<li class="module-list-item"><a href="http://www.example.com">Link Text</a></li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
Replace each instance of http://www.example.com with a site you'd like to link to, and the related Link Text with the site name (or whatever text you'd like to use to reference that site).
Save the Template and Rebuild it.
Templates Prior to Version 3.2
You will need to edit your Main Index Template and insert the appropriate HTML code within the sidebar area.
Look for the following code in the Main Index Template:
<div id="right">
<div class="sidebar">
Then insert the following HTML after that section, wherever you want the links to appear:
<div class="link-note">
<h2>My Links</h2>
<a href="http://www.example.com">Link Text</a><br>
<a href="http://www.example.com">Link Text</a><br>
<a href="http://www.example.com">Link Text</a><br>
</div>
Replace each instance of http://www.example.com with a site you'd like to link to, and the related Link Text with the site name (or whatever text you'd like to use to reference that site).
Save the Template and Rebuild it.
