The default Movable Type template has a space where it tells you to add new links. That space (in a side column) is the "blogroll," or a list of sites that you want to recommend to your readers. This short entry describes how to create a blogroll, and includes a bit of sample code.
Click on "Templates", then choose "Main Index" (index.html).
A box with a lot of text will appear. It's a good idea to copy this text and save it somewhere before you fiddle much with it.
Scroll down to find "Add Your Links Here". Those words will be on a line that looks something like this:
<a href=""> Add Your Links Here</a><br />
Remove that whole line. You can copy and paste the following code in its place.
<a href="http://www.setonhill.edu">Seton Hill University</a><br />
<a href="http://blogs.setonhill.edu/nmj">NMJ @ Seton Hill</a><br />
Follow the same pattern if you want to create more links.
<a href="[URL]">Text to click on</a><br />
The "<a href=""></a>" is the same stuff that is added when you click the URL button when you create an entry. The "<br />" tells the browser to skip down to the start of the next line.
If you have any questions, please feel free to post them here.
It didn't work, and I stopped while I was ahead.
HTML makes me want to pull my hair out.
Question: How do you make it so that the category will appear along with the entry title on your blog?
