Welcome to Hoppy Helps!

Hello! My name is Hoppy and I am a frog who loves blogs. Guess that makes me a BlogFrog, huh? A little about me: Some of you may recognize me from here where I got my start. In my travels thru Blogland I have come to meet many wonderful bloggers.

Many of them have questions such as, "How do I set up a blog?", "How do I comment on other's blogs?", "How do I respond to comments left in my blog?", How do I get more from my G-Mail account?"...the list goes on and on. There are many great resources on the Internet and I have decided, along with my Sweetie, Sassy, to find answers to some of those questions and post them here.

Thank you for stopping by!

How many posts?

When you log into Blogger, you are at your dashboard. All of your blogs are listed there. Under the name of each is how many posts you have made so far.



Hope this helps~

Adding links

Khris is gonna be a guest contributor to Hoppy Helps! Please do NOT tell Sassy, but I think Khris has a crush on Hoppy:).

Here is her first official contribution:

To add a link to your posting you highlight the word that you want your readers to click on ....so if you are talking about Bonnie you highlight the word "Bonnie".....then click on the little icon that is above your posting box.....and that will bring up a field that you can put the link in. When you post the message the word Bonnie will be in a different colour for your readers to click on.

In your side bar where you have your links for your favourite blogs you need to click on your "dashboard" and then "layout". There you can click on a "page element" and then you click on the one that says "Link List"....there you can add you links. You can put a name then the link address.....then just the name shows on your blog rather than the whole link address.

Khris, you are amazing! Hoppy loves you...just don't tell Sassy!

3 Column Blog Templates

I have had a lot of requests for 3 column blog information. I, personally, paid someone to do mine. Her link is in the side bar.

I have, however, since found this link which features some of the usual blog templates for Blogger in a 3 column format.

If you are felling froggy, leap on over there and check it out.
