TypePad Buttons and TypeList trick
Posted by Mena Trott in Extras, Tips and Tricks
We've had two frequently-asked requests from our users. One, do we have any TypePad buttons that they can add to their sidebar (or replace the "powered by" text). And two, what's the easiest way to add a button or badge to their TypePad sidebar.
As a response to the button question, we've created a number of buttons for you to download and add to your own site. In this tip, we walk you through the process of adding a button to your TypeList and you will then be able to apply this trick to additional buttons, badges and small images you'd like to add to your site.
And because we've seen the demand for images in sidebar, we're working on creating an Image TypeList so that you can add graphics to your sidebar even more easily.
You can add a button to your sidebar without editing your templates:
Download the TypePad buttons file
Add the button using a Link TypeList
If you're an pro user and you are comfortable editing the HTML of your templates, just upload and insert the link into your templates.
