Another website you'll see my link on

I just transformed a photographer's PixelPost photoblog into a Wordpress website making sure that the design is kept the same and only the platform would be easier to handle which, according to the client's feedback, worked out very well! Check it out here: Dió Fotóstúdió (Hungarian)

EDITED: note that the above website has now moved, the new website address and details of my work on rebuilding it can be found in my newer post called Website rebuilt by webeno - teklalight.com.

How to hide deleted comments in Blogger

Unfortunately if you delete a Blogger comment the person's name and profile will still be visible / accessible and only the comment itself will get deleted. To go around this, I have found an excellent post that I'm going to share with you now. It's called Blogger: Hide Deleted Comments. Hope it helps! ;)

EDITED: Note that the comment number change described in above post does not apply on archive pages (ie. the home page), because it needs comments to be displayed (counted).

How to keep the Facebook like button's language

After announcing Facebook Like button added to webeno.blogspot.com in my earlier post, I realized that the button changes language according to the country of stay of the person visiting my blog. This can cause problems (ie. cannot see the count of likes after the button) and as I write my blog in English and the word "like" is pretty much known by the blog readers' community, I decided to keep it in English.

Easy countdown timer for your website

I guess I found the easiest countdown timer on the web, namely Andrew Urquhart's DHTML Easy Countdown — v1.53. All you have to do is to copy the javascript provided in the downloaded file onto your hosting server, call this javascript at the beginning of your page, then use the 'countdown1' selector id in any div, span or other tag, and finally provide the date and time within and you're good to go! ;)

Example code to call the javascript (put this between the 'head' tags):

Google changing language per region & How to stick to google.com?

1. Google language changing Have you ever travelled to another country with your laptop and realized that the language on Google changes to the local language of your stay? Well, some people (obviously more at Google) think this is a good thing, but me, including maybe a bigger part of the community travelling and using Google, this is of no use or even very annoying. No solution exists to date, but I found a thread that provides a workaround

Choose the content to display on the different page types in Blogger

It is important to know the exact scope of Blogger page types in order to be able to place different content on selected page types. Following page types exist at Blogger currently:

1. Home page
2. Archive Page
3. Item Page = Post pages
4. Index Page = home page, label page, search page
5. Static Page = Blogger Pages (relatively new in Blogger)

The code would look like this:

How to recover deleted posts and pages in Blogger

If you understand Blogger's URL structure when editing (creating new) blog posts or pages in Blogger, you'll practically be able to recover any deleted posts or pages. However you'll have to make sure that you have a backup of your posts and pages ('Settings' > 'Basic' tab > 'Export blog') before deleting any of them otherwise you will not be able to locate the deleted post or page in Blogger's database (you'll understand it if you read on).
