88 Related Posts with Thumbnails for Blogger - New Version by BloggerWidgets
September 25, 2009 /

Aneesh of Blogger Widgets has developed a new "Related Posts" script for Blogger which displays thumbnails of images in addition to linked post titles:



In appearance, this Blogger "add-on" is similar to the LinkWithin script. Each section is highlighted in a complementary colour when the mouse hovers over it, and the entire section is clickable, leading to the URL of the "related post" displayed.


Unlike the LinkWithin script, this add-on links directly to the post page it references, and relies on Blogger's label feeds to display posts of true relevance to the post on which it appears.

Aneesh's script seems relatively easy to install. Furthermore, almost all aspects of this add-on may be customized including the style (by editing the CSS), the number of related posts to be displayed and the title of the section in which it is contained.

The image thumbnails displayed for each related post are generated from the thumbnail associated with the relevant post page. Therefore, only images which you have uploaded to each blog post (rather than referencing by URL) will be displayed. In instances where no image appears in the related post, a generic "No-Image" replacement will be be displayed instead.

Overall, I am very impressed by Aneesh's related posts script - it is neat, easily customizable and as the JavaScript is hosted by Google Code this loads very quickly..

Be sure to visit this page on the Blogger Widgets site for full instructions of installation and customization methods to add this useful script to your own Blogger blogs.

"does not rely on external JavaScript to function"

You said that wrong. ;)

This widget does rely on an external javascript file, plain as day, in the CSS code.

If you look at that external javascript file that is hosted by Aneesh on googlecode.com, that is how the no/image pic. is getting called by the javascript.

Not, a big deal since the javascript is on googlecode.com, so should be good & not hit any max bandwidth limits. Which also makes for a very clean/easy install in the blogger template (less code for the end user to mess with).

I will say, that's some very clean looking javascript! :)

Great job, Aneesh

greatest aneesh.

love blogger so much :)

@Switcher - oops! I overlooked that, and have now edited the post. Thanks for letting me know!

25 September 2009 20:01 Switcher said...

@Amanda

Just thought I would point that out, just in case anyone wanted to change the defualt no/image to their own image (in the external javascript file), to blend in with their own blog colors.

Great blog you have here, lots of great info!

Amanda,

First, thanks for bringing things like to light. However, I am experiencing a weird problem with this modification in one of your templates.

I using the Nexus5 template for my regular and test blogs. After adding this modification, the featured post gadget ceased to work. Also, the related post thumbnails show only the "No Image" and ALL of my images are hosted by blogger. I'm scratching my head over that little quirk...

Granted, editing the template code is very new (and somewhat intimidating) to me. I may have mucked things up a bit. But, before I dove in and tried to figure this out on my own, I wanted to see if you were aware of any known or potential conflicts with this modification and the Nexus5 template.

Thanks for any insight you can provide, and I hope you have a great weekend. Cheers!

Joe

25 September 2009 21:34 Aneesh said...

@Amanda ,Thanks a lot for featuring this one.. :) now it takes up external images (full size images) also.

and thanks to all of you for the support..
@JudokaJoe,
it shouldn't cause any probs.. i will try it on some test blog and let you know :)

26 September 2009 02:55 JudokaJoe said...

@Aneesh & Amanda - Thanks, but I got it working! Chalk up my problem to an overzealous mouse while copying & pasting...

This is a great addition to my blog. Thanks again!

Hello Amanda. I can't leave any comment on your personal site www.amandafazani.com
Something wrong with the comment box verification. Form to fill out the captcha is closed by the comment box.
By the way, blogger won't allow the code to put customize "Save as PDF" like yours here on bloggerbuster. "Save as PDF" with small icon and text. I've try the tutorial you wrote on www.bloggingtips.com but it didn't work. Thank you Amanda..

@ Amanda
Nice post! I'm currently using LinkWithin, but might try this one instead.
Does this one also create a thumbnail image from videos or only from images? The LinkWithin version I'm using now takes the video still as image if I don't have an image on the post.

hi all at bloggerbuster.com

i hope you guys can help me.
is it possible to implement a "auto load more posts" on a blogger blog? i guess the problem is the php implementation..

i mean a thing like this, but automatic:

like on, for example:
http://www.unurth.com/
or

McCann Unravels. "Los MCcánn no son víctimas son verdugos"

"ENCUBRIENDO EL MALTRATO INFANTIL ABUSOS SEXUALES Y ASESINATO en primer grado" "UN SPSICÓPATA"
Gerry MCcann es pederasta y no le importa que sea niño o niña lo que les interesan a los pederastas es su infancia. LA JUSTICIA CUMPLE SE REABRE EL CASO . SOS: EL RESCATE, DE MADELEINE (MCCANN) LA NIÑA “INGLESA” RAPTADA EN (PORTUGAL)
"AQUÍ HAY TONGO"
Madeleine MCcann el gobierno portugués y ministro de justicia mas fiscal y el juez toman una alternativa para los "Mccann" no hay cadáver no hay juicio.El juicio de "Marta Del Castillo" no hay cadáver pero se hace justicia......................
Madeleine MCcann En la primera anestesia la niña se despertó cuando se encontró al padre abusando de ella fue golpeada salvaje mente por el propio padre al darse cuenta que no era bien recibido y volvió a ser anestesiada de hay la sangre de la niña de los golpes recibidos recordando en todo momento que estaba bajo los efectos del alcohol de hay el ataque cardíaco. Cadena perpetua para Un Pederasta y pedofilo Fueron los padres los asesinos mas torturaban a la niña. Los McCann y sus siete amigos cenaban cada noche durante sus vacaciones en Portugal, incluida aquélla en la que desapareció Madeleine, aseguraron que éstos bebían entre 10 y 12 botellas de vino, a las que precedían cervezas y cócteles durante el aperitivo mas lo que tomaban durante las comidas . kate y Gerri de profesión médicos anestesiaban a Madeleine puesto que lloraba 18 horas al día con mucha regularidad porque tenían en casa a su mal tratador era ese el motivo de su llanto y se combirtio en un suplicio o martirio para el matrimonio causa del asesinato premeditado en primer grado aquí no podía haber ningún accidente por exceso de anestesia puesto que los dos son médicos .Estos asesinaron a su hija con premeditación .Los Mccann tenían deudas de tres mensualidades de su hipoteca de tres mil euros mensuales y las cuentas al rojo y se tomaron unas vacaciones veraniegas mas 40 días sin pagar nada por sentirse el director del hotel responsable de la desaparición de Madeleine total unas vacaciones a lo grande y todo a costas del asesinato premeditado en primer grado. No hay ningún retrato robot que valga basta, basta, de tanta comedia la falsa del retrato robot inventado por Remenber de Rokley portavoz del gobierno Británico y periodista que costo un millón y medio de Euros que tubieron que pagarles los Mccann por limpiar el nombre..Cuando se descubra la verdad se recuperara el turismo y la alegría de algarve recuperación de empleos y la normalidad con el mundo.Está la reputación de Portugal en jaque. "El último grito de Madeléine MCcánn"
En vez de misterio tuvo más de circo y todo para tapar un asesinato que un niño no lo pasaría
desapercibido, lo demás de risa por no llorar... Quisiéron hacerles al mundo un labádo de cerebro con retratos robot y comedias con el porta voz al frente.
Caso Madeleine McCann - Operación Task...
Es una manipulación de ciertos jornaleros implicados con los MCcanes y remenber para seguir estafando y sacando fondos Estamostodosaqui...Estamos hante una Máfia Órganizada ...

Advertencia cuidado con el monopolio capitalista es el que está haciendo que no salga a luz este articulo por no salir de un juzgado o de un medio de comunicación y el monopolio. MCCANNES Y OPERACIÓN TASK no les interesan que salga a lúz porque se les terminarían la ganga silencio es el dilema de todo un monopolio llenos de mentiras aqui se está encubriendo la verdad...
Que sepan tanto gobiernos como jueces y medios de comunicacion que están colaborando a crear un atentado contra la democracia y una conspiración hacia los derecho de la opinión y publicación una forma mas de hacer terrorismo tema de los MCannes es una burla hacia el mundo.Hasta que les vengan la sensatez a los medios de comunicación seguiré ocupando su lugar. !!!De donde sacan ustedes la inocencia de los MCcann¡¡¡
