    Add a Working Mixx Bookmark Icon to the Blogger/Blogspot Platform : Classic or Custom Templates

    December 7th, 2007

    mixx

    It literally took me about 2 hours to figure out the syntax for blogspot.  I have no idea how people put up with that compared to a self-hosted blog, sigh.  Anyway upon request, here are the steps to adding a Mixx Icon that works properly for the old and new Blogger templates.

    First the Icon

    You can always use one of the existing buttons or badges from the Mixx site. This is what I had on hand.
    mixx

     

    Right Click and Save as.  You will need to host the Icon yourself, sorry.

    The Code

    If you don’t know, you need to navigate to your blogger admin panel and get to the template tab.

    edithtml


    Now go to edit html.

    Since every template is different it is hard to pin down exactly where you will have to add the following code, but I tried to give an example where I added mine..

    Older or Classic Template Syntax

    Find

    [html]

    [/html]

    Add above

    [html] [/html]

    Below Add

    [html][/html]

    Don’t forget to change the Image Path

    Be sure to change the image path for either code to match the location of your uploaded Mixx Icon.

    The Final Result
