Help page error
Category and author examples seem messed up? -- ◄mendel► 01:02, 30 June 2009 (UTC)


 * The category example uses the tag, and vice versa. JesseRoo (Talk)


 * I've just created a blog list and this isn't true.


 * Eric Ryan Jones just fixed the description (thanks Eric!) Kirkburn (talk) 12:07, 8 July 2009 (UTC)

Limiting the amount of summary text shown
I'm currently in search of a way to limit the amount of text it show, for a main page sumary of all blogs posts. — TulipVorlax 17:19, 1 July 2009 (UTC)


 * TulipVorlax: the way is to enter "summarylength=(number)" as a variable in the bloglist tag. Wjxhuang,  the 888th Avatar  {Talk} 14:34, 2 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Thanks, i've set it up to 150. — TulipVorlax 04:32, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

Changing the colours
How do I change the header color and header font color? It's defaulting to the wikis skin.. //--TehK 19:45, 4 July 2009 (UTC)


 * TulipVorlax: No problem. :) TehK: Enter  and use normal CSS styling such as "color:" and "background-color:".  Wjxhuang,  the 888th Avatar  {Talk} 09:28, 5 July 2009 (UTC)
 * I can't get the header color to change though :( //--TehK 21:53, 7 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Which header colour, specifically? The heading on File:Wikia blog articles 3.png? Kirkburn (talk) 12:07, 8 July 2009 (UTC)

Bloglist width
Is it possible to vary the width of the bloglist? I don't see it listed as one of the variable parameters. -- yoda8myhead 09:23, 2 August 2009 (UTC)


 * I believe the style parameter should allow you to do that? e.g.  Kirkburn (talk) 13:34, 3 August 2009 (UTC)

Removing the grey thin border between (and under) blog posts while using 'plain' mode
Is there any way to do it? --Bram Talk! 15:40, April 11, 2010 (UTC)

How to find the best post?
Good blog! I truly love how it' s easy on my eyes and the facts are well written. I am wondering how I can be notified whenever a new post has been made. I have subscribed to your rss feed which should do the trick! Have a nice day!
 * Hi, to find out when new blog posts are up, you need to follow the list (so at the top of the blog list page). To get notifications about a specific post, follow that post once its live. Enjoy, --Sarah (Help Forum) (blog) 21:34, September 23, 2010 (UTC)
