Zixpk Blue Blogger Template

56

Category:

Here is a little gift from me to the world. I have decided to give away my old blogger template, which from now on will be named "Zixpk Blue." After creating the new template that you currently see here on zixpk.com, I decided to not let my old template go to waste. So what better than giving it away to a community of fellow bloggers.



To download this template just click on the download link below. You will have to unzip the file using winrar.

Before installing the template and posting a question please watch the tutorial video which I have posted below on how to properly set up the template.

* For the search/categories to work on your blog you must have some labels on your posts. Here is the tutorial link for how to set up labels on your posts: LINK

This template looks awesome, thanks for being so kind as to share. I will definitely use it on my blog. I will post the link once I have installed it. Peace, and thanks again.

thanks for the template man!

Love the template!

mmmm, thanks alot
but the header isnt fit with the content body .. it's less wider .. how can i adjust it

@Ayman
The header should fit perfectly. The only way that it would be shorter than the rest of the body would be when you uploaded the header image, you must have click on the option that said "Shrink to fit", deselect this. If you could provide the link to your site that would be great, so I could see exactly what you are talking about.

Thanks for the layout. i like it a lot, but i am pretty sure i messed it up. i don't have photoshop, so i edited the header on photobucket. please let me know if you have any comments: 100days100pounds.blogspot.com

thanks

@saschanlog

I would really not recommend editing the header in Photobucket, but if you do make sure to not make the image smaller. There should be an option to make the image stay the same size. Also if that doesn't work get another image editor like Microsoft paint or a trial version of Photoshop. Second thing that I noticed when I went on your page was that your search bar wasn't working. To make the search bar appear you have to put labels on your posts. This will enable the search/categories bar. If you have any further questions just leave another comment and I will be happy to help.

I was trying to figure it out but could not. How do you add labels?

@saschablog100

Here is a tutorial made by the blogger folks that teaches you how to add labels to your current posts:

I love the template. I am a bit naive on all of this so when you skipped over the part on how to modify the favorite icon I became a bit lost... is that something within the template HTML or is it an option I am just not familiar with?

@ Jon Dutch

Sorry about not mentioning how to install the fav icon. I have created a tutorial video explaining how to properly set it up for this template. The tutorial should be up by tomorrow evening.

Thanks man, I look forward to it. Great job!

weird. i got an error message when i tried to upload the template (bX-btcv0r).

@Grimm

Blogger for some weird reason always out of random just feels like giving you an error message, sometimes even if there is nothing wrong with the template. Just try to install the template again in a little while.

Hey, I really appreciate the time you took to make the favicon video. I had already made mine, hosted it on my website server and placed the required code in the "head" section of my blog's code. I couldn't figure for the life of me why my favicon was only showing on my blog's main page and Zixpk's on all other pages. I didn't see the two snippets of code close to the bottom that you pointed out in the tutorial! It works like a charm now!

Here's a link for folks to generate ico files if they don't have PhotoShop.

I pre-made my favicon as a 105x105 pixel gif file then simply uploaded it to the above link. Very easy>

Thanks again.

I'm glad that I could help:)

how can i link my post to top tabs?

How can i add borders to images by default.

I created the header and saved it as a .PNG file, uploaded it to photobucket, got the direct link and did as you said. but when i go view my blog, i dont see it. do you know why?

@Jack

I know exactly what the problem is that you are having. This actually happens to me multiple time. Okay, so when you go to post your direct link (on the blogger edit header) there is a place to put your link, which im pretty sure that you are aware of. What you may not know is that for the image to show up on your blog it has to show up as a preview image on this header editor. So if the image doesnt appear right away just keep clicking eneter (on where you have inserted you image link) it might take a little bit before it shows up. Once you see the image as a preview, than save the header widget, and now it will appear on your blog.

I really don't know why this happens:|
If you have any further questions just leave another comment. Hope this has helped you.

Hi I'm Dany and I really enjoy Zixpk Blue: I've created a basketball blog for my little pupils but I've discovered that they can modify the widgets that I put on my blog. How can I block this option? Sorry for my english, I'm from Spain.

Hi I dont Know if you read the other post, I can't but, If my little pupils can modify the widgets how can I do to block this option? It appears an small image and when you click you can change the web direction, the video selection...

@firship

Actually you are the only person who can modify this. You are seeing the image that lets you modify the widget(The image look like tools). It shows up for you because you are the admin to your blog. Sign out of blogger, than go to your website and you will see that there won't be any more "tools pictures." So only you see this "tool" pictures, no one else does.

I LOVE your template! u brighten up my day! =D been searching wide and far for a good template. Very nicely done, very good. Motivates me to learn how to do a 3-column template by myself soon. =))

Anyway can we modify the top right box? with the search & labels there, can we add in another link list which is named "friend"?

Can u help me?
i want to ask u, how to do or make the 'Search' and 'Categories' in the right tab.
I don't know how to do it and connect my posting to the category..
Because i don't see any tools that make or linking the category to the postings..
Thanks you.
if u mind, reply to my email lostbutfound_lowbat@hotmail.com

@Rynnn & Low;b4t

Yah!!!!!

i love this!!! thank you

I have a couple questions. Is the RSS and search bar just hidden underneath the header image or did you delete it. Is it possible to change the colors on this template because I cannot seem to be able to change the colors on the WP-Premium them. It would be great if you could tell me how to do that. Also, is it possible to add more tabs and change the names of the current tabs for the search and category section? I'm planning on using this template as soon as I know what it can do.

great template. but whenever i try to add it i get this error code bX-si9ejx. I even cleared my cookies. Can anyone help?

bandwidth error :/

bandwidth error

hei can I change the colour of this blog to other colour??

Sorry everyone about the Google bandwidth error, this usually happens when too many people have downloaded the template. I have re uploaded the template and you should be able to download it now.

cool template.. i'm using it right now!! thanks dude!

my search bar and rss feed isn't showing.
Is it hidden under the header that I have ?
and is there a way to change the way the "0 comments" link appears?

i got a problem, that when am going to save or preview, it's showing me "Your template could not be parsed as it is not well-formed. Please make sure all XML elements are closed properly.
XML error message: The element type "a" must be terminated by the matching end-tag ""."

plz advice....

Haven't finished applying it yet but won't remember to post this when I'm done so... It will be on there. Thank you so much for sharing! I love this template, keep up the good work the tutorial vids were awesome! :-)

amazing template :) Thank you so much!

Ty for this theme. You rock. xoxo from Brazil

I uploaded this template and it looks great! I do want to say Thanks a lot. I do have a question though. I want to put some things on my blog similar to what you have on this one right above the comments (sharing is sexy) to link to my other websites. Can you help me or at least point me in the right direction so I could figure it out on my own? I'm not even sure what it is. is it a widget?

Can you update this Template by adding FOOTER SECTION of three columns where we can add Gdgets like Blog archive ,User Profile any ads . PLEASE tell me.

Thanks Kenneth, amazing template!

I spent a little bit of my time customizing it for my blog.

This is the result:

any solution?

i hv the same problem with RED™. Pls gv us any solution to solve this..:)

There is nothing actually wrong with the coding. At times blogger for some reason likes to act funnny. I know that it can seem really annoying. My solution would be to try to upload the template to your website at a later time or to use a different web browser to try to upload your temlate. You gotta love blogger some times ;)

Ken, I like the template very well and i wan to customize a bit with the template. Could you guide me how to add more tab at "categories" and "search" section? Thanks

Thank you very much for sharing your template.

I did a little tweeking, but I am having a hard time figuring out how to move the sidebar that divides the page on the right.

I was wondering if there is a way to make the date on each blog post smaller? It takes away from the look when it is as big as the title of the post. Also, I want to be able to put a twitter updates thing on it like you have on this blog is that possible?
