For months, I searched the Internet for a resource that would show me how to list my Post Titles in the sidebar of my now defunct Blogger blog. My Label List was getting out of hand, plus it didn’t give my readers a handle on what my archived posts were about.
With the over 1600 gadgets Blogger offers for the sidebar, I was surprised it doesn’t offer this one.
At long last, I found a tutorial at Blogger Sentral called List Post Titles In Alphabetical Or Chronological Order. And bingo. Now in addition to Blogger’s Archive gadget, I had my Posts List, which would display up to 1000 titles.
When my Posts (Titles) List started to take up too much space in my sidebar, I placed it in a Scroll Box, for which Blogger Sentral also has a tutorial Put A Widget Inside A Scroll Box.
Blogger Sentral is heaven-sent for the beginning blogger.
Thanks for stopping by,
Never heard of it! Thanks!
Thanks for the tip, Margaret. Will most certainly check out their tutorials. It's amazing how much there is to learn, huh? Happy blogging!
Your welcome, Tonya and Cathy. This post is short, but the information it shares may save some bloggers hours of searching for a more effective way to list their posts. Listing them according to key words, obviously didn't work for me, too long, too confusing. Hope it helps you or someone you know.
I absolutely love this idea Ms Margaret! Thanks for the lead. I will have to put this on my blog. I have always dislike the labels, but didn't put much thought into it. I went the hard way by the menus and manually putting everything in it's category.
Hi Self Sagacity. I'm glad this helped. As I said, I'm surprised that Blogger doesn't offer a post title list as an option.
Thanks for sharing.. Will look into it.. 🙂
Just did.. Hmm, not for me at the moment.. 🙂 I am fine with the direct title post I set up in my pages.. so yeah, will stick that for the moment.. 🙂
I'll have to check this out, when I get back to the Nana blog…I've neglected it for awhile..
Hi Lee. Yes, I've missed your posts there. Let me know when you're back in business.
I've been looking for the same gadget. This is exciting! I'm gonna check the links you provided..thanks for sharing Ms. Margaret..it's indeed helpful to every blogger specially to the newbies
Hi Lady in Purple. I'm grateful to sites such as Blogger Sentral for sharing much needed information to new bloggers for free. It's the least I can do to send other blogger their way. I'm glad I could help.
