  • Copy link
  • Add topic to favorites

  I want to be able to link some text to the follow button, for instance. I could say “click here and put in your email adress to enter our competetion”

  When the person clicks on the ‘click here’ part of the text, the instructions for following the blog appear.

  This way by entering the competetition the person is signing up to recieve updates about my clients band via the blog.

  Thanks.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  I’m sorry but if you are using the follow blog widget there is no means of adding or editing what goes out on it as it’s drawn from the RSS Feed for for posts (entries).

  You can do that in a text widget. See
