If you attended “Your Own Blog in 10 Minutes or Less, ” please go the November 2005 link in the archives and read the posts from November 16 and November 20. You will see a review of my suggestions for handling comments. You will also see instructions for how to remove the Blogger Navigation Bar and Blogger Icon. This way, students will not be able to click on the “Next Blog” link and possibly see objectionable material.

June 30, 2006 2:00 pmDr. Buck: I’ve gone to the Nov. 2005 blog, and in the directions for removing the “next blog” button, some words are missing. It only says,”…find the line that says: in the Word document you saved.” Isn’t there supposed to be something after the colon? I’m anxious to get this resolved. Thanks and really enjoyed the session and am excited about blogging!!

July 2, 2006 9:15 pmI have gone back and reworded that post so that the missing words now appear. (What happened was that when I enclosed “body” or “embed” between the signs, the words did not appear in the post. I guess I learn something every day. Thanks for coming to the workshop and welcome to the world of blogging.

July 3, 2006 1:06 pmSorry to bug you, but now I’ve got another problem. When I click the “About Me” link, the blogger icon comes up on that page and it will redirect back to the original blogger site. Any suggestions? I checked yours, and it does it on your page too. I guess we could take out that part of the page. Help please!

July 4, 2006 6:19 amI think I’ve got it! In your template , there is a line of code that says: $BlogMemberProfile$ and it is enclosed in the signs. Highlight and delete that one line. What that did was eliminated the profile entirely from the page. If you wanted to have a profile to introduce yourself, you could simply do a post (and even include a photo) as one of your initial posts.
