If you are taking advantage of Actice Rain's "Outside Blogs" feature .... and, if in the past you ever applied fancy formatting to one of your blog posts ...

Be sure to check up on how that post appears in the outside blog. 

The default Outside Blog theme appears to reduce the size of test and images just slightly, but that slight reduction can do funny things to formatted text.

15 Comments on Outside Blogs: One Detail To Check On

Yikes.................I haven't used Nuvu for some time, too busy, Guess I'll wait til it is fixed on posts I syndicate to my outside blog.

I've been working on adjusting my profile to fit the About Me section. I tried making changes to some table padding on prior blogs, but those changes aren't being updated on the outside blog. Wish the AR, Localism, and outside blogs were the same size so the text and photos didn't resize. It's really messed up how the photos look with the text.

I'm traveling and hadn't even figured out how to find my outside blog besides from my home page.  do you have suggestions for how to add to my website?  when I try I  can do a link but don't know how to figure out how to add it to a picture. (button?)  all still over my head.  cw

Cheryl W -- If you have an image, and you want that image to act as the link to the outside blog, you'd surround the image tag with the anchor tag 

like this

<a href="http://www.cheryls-outside-blog.com">  <img src="http://www.cheryls-outside-blog.com/cheryls-image.jpg">  </a>

 

The </a> at the end ends the anchor (anchor being the lingo for link)

Cheryl, I also use NUvu like Miss Caulk Ann, and hope it does not end up with the mess we saw on your post!Thanks for sharing. That is not funny but a good head ups.

The other problem I've run into is the About me page of the outside blog - mine is quite messed up.  It takes the info from your AR profile page but it doesn't work out that well.  Mine is all overlapped. I tried to adjust my profile but I'd have to redo the entire thing and get rid of all the tables and stuff.  I decided to just leave it - I think the outside blog about me page is kind of obscure so not that many people will probably look at it.

Also... on my wish list:  An outside blog theme with a main content column wide enough to hold a "flyer"  you know, the kind geneterated by Vflyer or Real Estate Shows.

I did notice a few of my posts were "messed up" and I have not yet taken the time to go back and "fix" them. Any word CJ on when some of these tweaks may come down the line?

Oh that happened with one of my posts....you must have seen it, huh?

Thanks for the information....it will not happen to me again!

Caution: CAT BLOG AHEAD

Including random thoughts on life, art, business, stuff, and occasionally Real Estate.

What is a CAT BLOG?

According to Seth Godin: "Cat blogs are for, by, and about the person blogging. A cat blog is about your cat and your dating travails and your boss and whatever else you feel like sharing in your public diary."

Well, I am the boss, my dating years are behind me, but I do love my cats.

Enjoy!
