Hello.
I'm trying to create a side blog. I've created it and it can be reached: http://www.cubiclewars.com/mt/sideblog/ Can someone give me the html code to put into the main index on my main blog? For the life of me, I can't figure it out! I'm using html and no sql datebases. Thanks! Charlie |

You can use PHP includes, use Server Side Includes (SSI), or use MTOtherBlog to do it in MT template code. I suppose you could do it in pure HTML with an iframe but most folks go for these other options.

I've installed this and have it working, but I can't get my sideblog to show links. Even though I've input the correct HTML, I can not get links to show up.
Need assistance. Thanks! |

You need to be more specific about the problem. A URL to the page where it's happening also wouldn't hurt.

QUOTE (shelley @ May 2 2004, 06:09 PM) You need to be more specific about the problem. A URL to the page where it's happening also wouldn't hurt. Hello. If you have a look at www.cubiclewars.com You'll see the side blog in action under DAILY LINKS. You'll see that even though I put the links in CNN, it doesn't show up. Regardless of where I try to put the link, it doesn't show. Now, the address of the side blog is www.cubiclewars.com/mt/sideblog If you have a look at this page, the links are intact. Please help. Thanks! |

So, you are trying to get the posts from http://www.cubiclewars.com/mt/sideblog/ to show up under the Daily Links section of your page, is that correct?
If so, what method are you using to insert the code? Probably the easiest method would be to get theMTOtherBlog plugin and use that. If you are still having trouble getting it to work, if you posted the code from your MT index template for that Daily Links section, that could also help in determining the issue. |

Hello.
Thank you for replying to my question. Below is the text I use on the main index page my main blog. This pulls in the sideblog. Daily Links <$MTEntryTitle$>: <$MTEntryExcerpt$> Here's the main index of sideblog: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript"> function OpenComments © { window.open(c, 'comments', 'width=480,height=480,scrollbars=yes,status=yes'); } function OpenTrackback © { window.open(c, 'trackback', 'width=480,height=480,scrollbars=yes,status=yes'); } <$MTCCLicenseRDF$> <$MTEntryTrackbackData$>

You don't seem to have any link HTML (an
<a> tag) in that code. If you put the URLs in the Entry Body, your code should read:CODE <MTOtherBlog id="5">
<MTEntries lastn="2"> <a href="<$MTEntryBody$>"><$MTEntryTitle$></a>: <br /> <$MTEntryExcerpt$><br /> <br /> </MTEntries> </MTOtherBlog> |
