On the Bakugan Wikia, I'm trying to get a blog listing up, but I can't get that button that says ,"More" or "Older". Anyone know how to?Abce2|Free Lemonade only 25 cents. 00:16, June 25, 2010 (UTC)

Do you mean w:c:bakugan:Blog:Recent_posts? It seems like the problem is that the limit of blogs to generate the Older posts link (I can see one very far down) is too high, but the edit fields for this page don't seem to allow you to change that limit. I suggest using w:c:bakugan:Special:Contact. Your wiki may have been mis-configured when blog functionality was added. -- Fandyllic (talk · contr) 7:16 PM PST 24 Jun 2010

Looking at Help:Blog_article/Bloglist, I'm not sure what you want is actually a feature of bloglist. I would ask at Special:Contact and/or mention what you want at w:c:help.wikia:Help_talk:Blog_article/Bloglist. -- Fandyllic (talk · contr) 6:10 PM PST 26 Jun 2010

Do you want a "More" link like what is on the news part of The Vault's main page? They do that by placing the bloglist inside of a table with it's own heading that has links to more blog posts, and styling the bloglists on their main page using MediaWiki:Common.css not to display the regular title. In other words, they replaced the default title with a custom one.

Here is an example of what their way would look like (without the css tinkering to remove the regular title):

You can add something to your site's MediaWiki:Common.css to remove the default title on specific pages. For example, to remove the default title on the main page only you would add this to the Common.css :

body.page-Bakugan_Wiki div.wk_blogs_panel .wk_blogs_title,{
   display: none;
}

To remove the default title on Bakugan Wiki:BakuNews the code would be this:

body.page-Bakugan Wiki:BakuNews div.wk_blogs_panel .wk_blogs_title,{
   display: none;
}
