speechless
on December 11th, 2006why can’t i use this blog template on my blog?!?!?!?! i just switched to beta and this doesn’t work!
barneybb
on December 11th, 2006I had been putting together a K2 template for Blogger using your classic template. Thencame the change to Beta. For some reason the Beta version of K2 does not have half of the functions of the classic one. Where is the About Me section?
Also I had a nifty hack to show a Flickr slideshow as a post. Any ideas how I get this to work, as this looked super cool?
Blogcrowds
on December 11th, 2006@ speechless, what’s not working? At my test blog http://blogcrowds.blogspot.com/ everything works fine, labels and all.
Please elaborate
barneybb
on December 12th, 2006I would like to include the list of contributors and latest posts list on the sidebar (see link).
I also tried pasting in the code to my existing blog and there were no spaces between each of the posts.
Forgive my ignorance. I’m new to html, yet alone xml, but am very eager to learn. Thanks for your help.
speechless
on December 12th, 2006when preview the blog, all i can see is a white page, with some letters… let’s do this: i’ll put this template on my blog untill you can see it, please give me some feedback so i can change it into this template correctly or to the previous one, ok?* thankx
Blogcrowds
on December 12th, 2006@speechless
it looks like you are still using the classic template, in the template setting click customize template and go through the upgrading process than paste the code.
@barneybb
In blogger beta, you can add features under template –> page elements. This should work for About Me sections etc.
As for the spaces between each post, I have a time stamp there, I’m not sure if I remove it (done in the settings) space will show it, if not then the css will have to be changed
Also please post questions at Blogcrowds as it is more convenient etc.
speechless
on December 13th, 2006thankx :D

on December 25th, 2006Hello…
I tried this template on IE, but it doesn’t appear in the right way. How can I fix this?
Nanai
on December 25th, 2006#11
You have to expand the widget template in the HTML editor and then look for the links and change it (use the search to find it).
Now I have a question to Blogcrowds. I’m trying to use the K2 template but I have a problem with the sidebar. As default, you have three widgets active: Tags, Labels and Blog Archive. When I try to add another widget, for example a text box or a image box, or another link box, something weird happens.
The new boxes don’t appers next to the older ones; they appers in the bottom of the blog, just under to the “Suscribe to” line.
If I take the new box over the older boxes, the first one for example, original boxes appears under the “Suscribe to” line too.
Too, the basic boxes haven’t got the edit icon in their bottom-right side, althrought I can edit them in the f*ck-editor.
Hope you can help me with this problem :)
See ya.
angelus
on December 29th, 2006Yes It´s happening the same for me as it happens to 13 (nanai) .
Please respond =)
Eric
on January 4th, 2007Please fix the crazy spacing issue on the sidebar. Whenever I try to use it on my blogger account, the archive and labels are way to spaced out and everything breaks to a new line, and uggggggh!!!! Please just fix it, I’d like to update my template to beta but I can’t until this is fixed. For an example of my problem, please see http://www.freewebs.com/ericleamen/BloggerProblem.JPG
Tommy Johnny
on January 4th, 2007Happens for me to. :(
Every new items goes at the bottom of the sidebar. Please help!!!
Diatribe
on January 5th, 2007I think I just figured out a solution to my and a few others problem with the widget spacing.
Find the piece of CSS code in the HTML editor bit that starts with .secondary { …………
Replace all of it with the below code:
(obviously you can change the font etc)
.secondary {
font: 1em/1.5em ‘Trebuchet MS’, Verdana, Arial, Sans-Serif;
padding: 20px 0 10px;
margin: 0;
color: #666;
position: absolute; /*_padding: 30px 0 10px;
_margin-left: 0%;
_margin-right: -4%;
_width: 26.5%;*/ /* IE hack */
width: 200px;
left: 550px;
}
It work fine on my blog but have only tested it in FF on a mac so I’m betting that on a PC in IE it’ll fuck up.
Tommy Johnny
on January 7th, 2007Cool! As you said Diatribe, it works fine in FF on my mac. The problem still remains when I try to see my blog (www.tommydoyle.blogspot.com) in safari and IE. Thanks a lot, I’m very happy my blog is working on a browser!

on January 10th, 2007I would like to ask if there’s a way to install haloscan in this template…

Thank you

on January 12th, 2007I was testing out the template, and I still get spacing issues on the sidebar. Also, how do I delete the links? They’re cool, but I don’t need them.
Marcelo
on January 14th, 2007Diatribe…. Thanks you, thanks you, thanks you! Using your correction, my blog works perfectly.
Marcelo
on January 14th, 2007Someone knows how to put the “date” before the “Title” of an article? Like the Demo page of this template (http://k2-blogger-beta-template.blogspot.com/)
Chris
on January 17th, 2007Can someone lend me a hand? I’m trying to insert a rotating banner script for my header image, but i don’t know how to accomplish that with this template. Here’s the script:
var banner= new Array()
banner[0]=”http://static.flickr.com/84/269053449_acad87a793_o.jpg”
banner[1]=”http://static.flickr.com/95/269053438_4ef5a3983e_o.jpg”
banner[2]=”http://static.flickr.com/96/269053404_44a3b0eda8_o.jpg”
banner[3]=”http://static.flickr.com/108/269053262_608edbdda4_o.jpg”
banner[4]=”http://static.flickr.com/98/269053232_6f7c6f994a_o.jpg”
var random=Math.round(4*Math.random());
document.write(”");
document.write(”#header {”);
document.write(’ background:url(”‘ + banner[random] + ‘”) no-repeat left TOP;’);
document.write(” }”);
document.write(”");
Where should I insert this, what should I delete, etc?

on January 19th, 2007Can someone help me! I want to know how to make the Title and Description disappear from my blog header. I’ve got specially designed banners. Please help!
MLVC
on January 19th, 2007Thanks Diatribe - that worked perfectly.
BUT - now whenever I am on a single post page, the body background ends with the post and does not extend to cover my links.
Any ideas on how to fix this???
Linnea
on January 21st, 2007I am putting up K2 on my blog, requires some adjusting but it looks real nice!
#13: Had the same problems like you when adding new widgets to the sidebar. I solved it by deleting the quickedit image. Add the widget in “Page elements”, then go to “Edit html”, Expand widget templates and find and remove the tag that says (in the far end of the code).
Eric
on January 21st, 2007Got another glitch for ya! Can anyone figure out how to fix this: http://www.freewebs.com/teen-tech/BloggerGlitch2.JPG ? Thanks for all your help!
Eric
on January 21st, 2007Just to clarify, the glitch is that my sidebar goes off the page. Here’s the pic again: http://www.freewebs.com/teen-tech/BloggerGlitch2.JPG

on January 27th, 2007Hello!
I really like your ‘K2′ template; but I am having some problems:
1. After Google ads and search are inserted, a small bug image shows up, which brings up the edit box after clicking. How can I erase it?
2. How do I insert Google ad units the top (bottom of logo image) or at the bottom (top of your copyright statement). I tried many things, but they did not work.
3. How do I replace logo image with my own image?
Such a good template, but too much having problems with Google ad units.
I really appreciate your help. Thank you.

on February 19th, 2007thanks for this great template!
i’m having one main problem - anytime the left column is longer than the right, anything found in the left column simply rips through the white box and continues into the gray area at he bottom of the page. you can see this here: http://entrepreneuringecology.blogspot.com/search?updated-max=2007-02-16T16%3A51%3A00-05%3A00&max-results=5
anyway, how do i stop this from happening?
thanks again.

MakaniMike
on February 27th, 2007absolutely adore this template.
however I’m having some trouble with the sidebar. Specifically I am having trouble adding widgets to it (in blogger (not more) beta).
if i add the “about me” widget, all other widgets are shoved down in the sidebar until the point where the mainbody ends.
if i add other widgets besides the about-me, then it will take only one further widget correctly. all others will once again be shoved downwards until the point where the mainbody ends. (see also my blog)
any idea as to how to solve this problem?
MakaniMike
on February 27th, 2007ok. i should’ve just read the comments…
got it! :)
thx again for the excellent design!

on February 28th, 2007I’ve got K2 installed, but something strange is happening. It looks fine on the home page, but whenever I go into a non-home page (permalink, archives, etc) the banner image is there with no text or tabs.
See for yourself

on March 5th, 2007hello all,
first I really really liked this template and believe me I searched alot before finding be4 saying this.
but unfortunately the template was too “bright and joyful” for my blog, so tweaked it, sorry for the word tweaked, u can say I overhauled it.
So my question is: is this legal? can I use it?
for now I’ve put it just on a template test blog, please check link.
If it is OK, thank you I’ll leave the credits at the bottom, if not well sorry I’ll delete it and try searching for a new one, or build one from scratch.
Anyway thanks.
Eric
on March 13th, 2007Is it possible to change the text at the bottom of the page that says “Older Posts”? If it is, please tell me how! Thanks!

on March 16th, 2007I must comfess, I have never programmed in HTML prior to this. But I tried out the template, and added in a few items by trial and error. Managed to get my website up in 1 day. Thanks for the template! You guys are great!
If you have time, please suggest more ways I can improve my blog at

on March 25th, 2007I’ve made some adjustments to the template, but I can’t figure out how to make the “Previous Entries” actually link to anything. I see from someone else’s source code that doing something like:
Previous Entries
I just don’t know what to input here: updated-max=2007-03-01T22%3A47%3A00%2B08%3A00&max-results=10
at the percentages. Can anyone help?
Seyhan
on March 26th, 2007Everyone having the alignment problem, you should expand your widgets and delete this in each it solved my problem. The “.secondary” editing doesn’t solve it.
Corceca
on March 28th, 2007In other words, I am wondering whether there is a “Previous Entries” link that can be placed at the bottom of the page, that will link to another page with previous posts. Blogger does this in its new templates, but since you have to use a classic one for this template, I’m wondering how to make it work.
Ramiro
on April 6th, 2007Hi! First, i love your template. I updated it and it’s working just fine, but i have a problem with the labels, maybe becaouse of blogger, i don’t know yet. But as my blog is an oldie, i hava labeled old posts. Some categories have more than 30 posts to show, but when you click on the label, it shows only a limited number of them, the other can’t be read through the label system. Any idea? Somebody? Thnx.

Do someone now how to do it?!
Thank you

on April 9th, 2007Hey, thanks for the K2 template. I’ve been using the same for a while.
Now I’m thinking of having same K2 template with 2 sidebars on the right, like in the template - Andreas04. This is because the single sidebar present now is very long and makes it boring for my viewer.
Is it possible to provide one? thanks in advance :)
disconnected
on April 9th, 2007Hi, I love K2 and I’ve got it all up and running. However, I can’t find a way to change the “home” button on the menu bar. Everytime I click it, it just displays it cannot be found. I’ve tried to remove the source, but everything just goes haywire. I think the source is something along the lines of “data:blog.homepageUrl”. Any suggestions?

Anyone knows why?

on October 7th, 2007Hello,
I really like this template, and I’ve used it on my blog
However, I think the entry column and the widgets are too close to each other. Is there a way to adjust the margins of the entry column? I have minuscule knowledge on html so I don’t really know how to edit this. Anyway, thank you. Hope I get a reply. :)

on December 13th, 2007Hi people. Nice, nice template. Two questions though:
How come it goes beserk every time I want to change the header image? It seems so sensitive, I don’t get it. What line should I change?
And how do I change to colour of the top links? Hugs.

What line should I change?
Thanks.
Knoxville Films
on April 9th, 2008To get rid of the header description so it doesn’t appear over your custome image header, delete the following code from your template:
#headr .description {
text-decoration: none;
color: white;
}
h1:hover {
text-decoration: underline;
}
