Customizing the Newer and Older Post Footer Link

The other day, I was looking on ways how to customize the 0 comments label like the one below.

Silly me. I forgot that this can be done by going to Layout > Page Elements and click Edit found on the Blog Post section.

While searching for this, I found another trick which I used to customize my blog appearance. I modified the look of the Newer and Older links. These links are used to navigate between newer and older posts.

In the image above, I replaced three links with customized images. I created 3 different images for the Newer, Home and Older links, then I hosted these in an image hosting site like Photobucket.

Then in my blog, I went to Layout > Edit HTML to do the following:

Replace <data:newerPageTitle/> for Next Post with <img src=’YOUR-IMAGE-LINK‘/>
Replace <data:olderPageTitle/> for Older Post with <img src=’YOUR-IMAGE-LINK‘/>
Replace <data:homeMsg/> for Homepage with <img src=’YOUR-IMAGE-LINK‘/>

Make sure to Save your work and then view your blog to see your changes.

There are actually other ways to customize these post footer links. To know them, you may check out this post from Smart Bloggerz.

To accept this award do the following:

Thank the person who nominated you for this award.
Copy the logo and place it on your blog.
Link to the person who nominated you for this award.
Name 7 things about yourself that people might find interesting.
Nominate 7 Kreativ Bloggers.
Post links to the 7 blogs you nominate.

Here are 7 things about me that I think are interesting.

I am still breastfeeding my 2.8 year-old daughter until now although we are down to night-time feeding and exclusive on weekends and holidays.
Due to my advocacy to breastfeeding, I tried my best to express milk at work until my daughter reached 2 years. Two weeks after she turned two, I stopped pumping milk and decided that we’ll just go for night-time feeding.
The first company I applied to after graduation is still the company that employs me until now.
And the team where I belong right after graduation is still my team until now although its name already evolved quite a few times already and so are the functions.
I used to be an athlete in my younger days. Volleyball and track and field are my main sports.
I like commuting. I’d rather commute than spend my supposedly family or ME time on driving lessons. At least that’s how I see it now.
I find joy in understanding things only techies can digest.

Now, I’m awarding this to the following beautiful people.

Enjoy your award and I hope you can reply to this post your own entry so I can check it out.
