Personalizing Your Posts

Here's another tip for you avid bloggers out there. This one is fairly simple, but a lot of bloggers aren't aware of it. You can change "posted by" (seen at the bottom of each post) to whatever you want with these quick, easy steps. Personalize your blog and make it unique!

How to change "posted by" at the bottom of each post:

blog tip

Be sure you are signed in to blogger. From the dashboard, select "layout." This will automatically take you to the "Page Elements" tab. You will see a large box that says "Blog Posts." Select "edit" in the bottom corner of this box. This will open a pop-up window for configuring blog posts. You will see a box that says "Posted by" your name. You can then change this to whatever you'd like. Be sure to hit "save" at the bottom, and you're all done!

P.S. I'd love to hear if this little tutorial was helpful to you. Thanks!

What Do You Think? + Blogger Tip

I've given my blog and my shop a little makeover today. Let me know what you think!
And now for a BLOGGER TIP!
Want to remove the NavBar from the top of your blog?
Maybe it clashes with your pretty layout?

Follow these simple steps...

1 Make sure you're logged in to blogger

2 Go to your dashboard and select layout

3 Under the tabs (posting, settings, layout, view blog) you will see the option to edit HTML

4 Now all you do is paste the following code into the appropriate portion of your blog's HTML
(Pictured below)

5 The code inside the yellow box is what you want to insert.
Be sure to add it right above variable definitions.
Code:
#navbar-iframe {
display: none !important;
}

6 Now save template and voila! If you ever want to undo this, simply remove the code.

(The only drawback to this is that you must go to blogger to access your dashboard instead of simply clicking on dashboard from the NavBar. But, I think it makes your blog look much cleaner and professional.)
