HTML blogrolls

  • Unknown's avatar

    How can I add a blogroll that has HTML to add it to the site? Such as one from here: http://americanconservativebr.blogspot.com/ I tried using a text widget but it only showed the graphic that comes with it, not the toolbox of blogs. The host of the blogroll wants the entire list to show.

    I’ve never seen such a bizarre blogroll. It seems the same links are repeated over and over again punctuated by images.

    (1) All of those links can be individually entered here -> Blogroll and assigned to a Category ie. AmericanConservative. Then when you put your Links widget in the Sidebar they will display together in alphabetical order under the Category.

    (2) If you don’t like that and you still want to use a text widget then it sounds like you will need help sorting out the code.

    Look on your keyboard next to the left of number 1 key. The lower case is a backtic. When you want to display code on the forum you do so by placing a backtic at the commencement and end. Please post the code so we can see what’s going on.

    Looking around that site I would wonder if adding the HTML might be a violation of the Terms of Service here, specifically the SEO part. If I were you I would send a Feedback once support re-opens on Monday and ask about it.

    I had concerns about that also. ToS section 2 – 5th bullet http://wordpress.com/tos/ I agree with raincoaster. It’s in your best interest to consult with staff on Monday.
