Howdy Readers !!
This is one of the best widgets/Hack you can use to customize your site in the best way. The real use of this widget is to occupy less space in your blog and have more flexibility available. Now through this widget you can combine your, Recent comments , Recent post and labels and popular post and everything you want into one place. It really saves space on your blog. Now I am also in the process of adding this widget to my blog, but for now I am customizing it in a way to suite my site or blending the colors to suite my site.
Anyways lets get started with this widget steps.
First and foremost save you template and now as usual follow this simple steps.
- Log in to your blogger account
- Go to Design > Edit HTML and find the code:
</Head>- And paste the code below just before it :
<script type='text/javascript'>

//]]>
</script>- Now find the below code :
]]></b:skin>- And paste the below code just before it.
/*---------- Tabber Start-------- */
.tabberlive{
margin:0;
padding:5px;
clear:both;
background:$tbbxbgcolor;
border:1px solid $tbbxbrcolor;
}
.tabbernav {

text-decoration:none;
}
.tabbernav li.tabberactive a,
.tabbernav li.tabberactive a:hover {

}
.tabberlive .tabbertab h2,

.tabbertab .widget-content li {
border-bottom:1px solid $tbbxbrcolor;
margin:0 5px;
padding:2px 0 5px 0;
}
/*------- Tabber End--------*/
- Now find the below code
#navbar-iframe- And paste the code below just after #navbar-iframe { Some text here }
/* Variable definitions
====================
<Variable
name="tbbxbgcolor" description="Tab box Background Color" type="color"
default="#f8f8f8" value="#f8f8f8">
<Variable name="tbbxbrcolor" description="Tab box Border Color" type="color" default="#dcdcdc" value="#dcdcdc">
<Variable name="tbbxcolor1" description="Tab box Color 1" type="color" default="#ffffff" value="#ffffff">
<Variable name="tbbxcolor2" description="Tab box Color 2" type="color" default="#5588aa" value="#5588aa">
*/
- Now the last part, find the code below
<div id='sidebar-wrapper'> OR<div id='sidebars'>
- And paste the below code just after it
<div style='clear:both;'/>
<div class='tabber'>
<b:section class='tabbertab' id='tab1' maxwidgets='1'/>
<b:section class='tabbertab' id='tab2' maxwidgets='1'/>
<b:section class='tabbertab' id='tab3' maxwidgets='1'/>
<b:section class='tabbertab' id='tab4' maxwidgets='1'/>
</div>
- Now save your template and Go to page element :
You will get something like this :
Four Add a Gadgets in your page element. And those are the tabs in respective places as shown in picture.
Now add the gadget you want and you will get those four gadgets in tabbed mode.
Now the customizing Part.
Now if you want to change the position of your tab gadget then just copy and paste the last code which we pasted below
<div id='sidebar-wrapper'> OR<div id='sidebars'>
To few more gadgets below this. you will get something like this.
Now paste that code anywhere between this.(after the end of each code />). I would not suggest it if you dont know the basics of HTML and CSS.
Now customizing your gadget with colors here is the code.
Now here is the code. Change it little bit to get your gadget customize according to your Template.
You will have to change the code we pasted after :
#navbar-iframeand the code was :<Variable name="tbbxbgcolor" description="Tab box Background Color" type="color" default="#f8f8f8" value="#f8f8f8">
<Variable name="tbbxbrcolor" description="Tab box Border Color" type="color" default="#dcdcdc" value="#dcdcdc">
<Variable name="tbbxcolor1" description="Tab box Color 1" type="color" default="#ffffff" value="#ffffff">
<Variable name="tbbxcolor2" description="Tab box Color 2" type="color" default="#289728" value="#289728">
This code has four main sections amongst which the sections tbbxcolor1: and tbbxcolor2: are the most important. I will describe each one in detail.
Important Sections:
tbbxcolor1: This is an important section. It defines the background colour of this multi tab widget and also the colour on mouse hover. The default colour is white i.e #fffffftbbxcolor2: This refers to the background colour of the tabs and the text inside the tabs. the default colour is green. You can change the value #289728 to a different colour value using color chart
Change these only if you wish:
tbbxbgcolor: This section refers to the background colour of the tab box. By default the colour is grey. If you wish to change it to a different colour simply change the hexadecimal colour value #f8f8f8 to something different using Color Chart
tbbxbrcolor: This refers to the border line color across the tabs and the box.
Enjoy now
