  I have joined a writing community with a blogroll, one of the conditions being we display the other member’s blogs as links. Since this might end up literally with a cast of hundreds, the Blogger people have an easy solution: a widget that displays a scrolling list of blogs. It keeps the size small, the access there, and it looks neat. Unfortunately, since it uses javascript, it’s not a solution here.

  Is there something comparable you guys can suggest?

  Thanks in advance! http://cherrytart.wordpress.com

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

  We don’t have such a widget. If you have already created your blogroll (via Links > Add New), the easy solution is a Links page – see here:

  If you must have it in the sidebar, you’ll have to create it manually, using a text widget. You’ll need coding for links, unordered lists, and scrollboxes – see here:
