Dilectio Template
Here’s a nice three column modern artistic Blogger template with some nice bells and whistles. It has a cool search box and “About You” section with a red/orange background along with a custom date/time stamp for each post. This template is only the second one ever to include javascript tabs within the sidebar. That means instead of the page reloading each time you click on a tab, it dynamically clicks over! Check out the live demo to see it in action.
This free Blogger template is also setup for you to easily add Google AdSense and make money from your blog. If you don’t already have Google AdSense, you should read more about how to make money from Blogger and sign-up. The ad format and colors you should use to best match this template are illustrated below. The 300 x 250 rectangle with #fff3e2 for the border and background, #cc0000 for the text, and #856d65 for the title and url. This will make your ad block blend in nicely with the light pink second column.
You’ll also need to setup the header tabs before they appear. Just edit the “top tabs” widget and create the tabs you want. The “Home” tab automatically appears once you create your first tab.
To setup the recent posts and comments cool dynamic tab section you’ll need to paste in your rss feeds. Read this article on setting up your Blogger recent comments and posts section.
The rest of the configuration is pretty straight forward. If your individual blog post date stamp doesn’t show up, you’ll need to make one more change. Go into your Blogger’s “Settings” tab and then click on “Formatting”. Next, change the “Timestamp Format” (it’s the 4th one down) to this format => “Wednesday, February, 2008″. Make sure you change the “Timestamp Format” and NOT the “Date Header Format”. Many people in the past have told me it didn’t work only to find out they were changing the wrong field.
This template was originally designed by Design Disease for WordPress and was converted into Blogger by Blog and Web. eBlog Templates decided to take it one step further and enhance it to include the dynamic header tabs and javascript recent posts and comments tab section.
Want to make your blog stand out from the crowd? I recommend giving your newly downloaded Blogger template a unique and personalized look. Read our Free Blogger Header Images article and find yourself a great custom header image!

OK, I’m kind of dumb. How do I make one of my top tabs a “mailto:” tab?? Every time I try it adds the http, and it’s really frustrating.
8:20 pm on March 5th, 2008 (subscribed to comments)
Amanda, since the top tabs are a link list, you’ll just want to do something like this:
http://mailto:youremail@yahoo.com

Thank you! Thank you! I’ve tried to load this exact template through some other template sites, but without much success and with alot of complication. You have definitely made it so much easier and so straight forward. And to think I found your site completely by accident via google search for blog widgets…

When I put in the code for the recent comments, it’s ok and saved. However, when I view my blog, the recent comments doesn’t show up.
I hope I can have this rectified. Other than that, I’m loving it!!! Awesome template! LOVE IT!

@delasalle-news, yes I did look at your blog but I couldn’t figure it out. It’s a very unique problem and I can usually figure these things out but not this time. It’s strange how the images sometimes work and show up in their normal size and sometimes they don’t. Did you try setting up a test Blogger blog and installing the template again there? Play around with some images and see if you get the same problem with the default template installation.

Gorgeous template, very easy to install, however, I am having the same problem with the copyright popping to the tippy top when I added a header image. Without a header image, the copyright is in the right place at the bottom. I didn’t “mess with any code” at all to put the header image in, just used the page element header widget to upload an image, and still get this problem. Any suggestions for a workaround?

Hello there. I have been using this template for the past few months and have really enjoyed it. I recently needed a change and wanted to go back to something simpler so I have reverted to a standard blogger template and now my date won’t show on my postings. I’ve switched the timestamp back to what it was. Any ideas? I also had to delete all the search and rss page elements by hand as they weren’t working. Any help would be much appreciated.
Thank you in advance!

Hey David, thanks for sharing this template. I’ve tested many other templates but none suits me until I found this one.
By the way, how do I change the 435 pixels width post area to 468 pixels and remain the current pixels of white space padding on the left and right side of the post area? I need to insert some banners there and most of them are 468 x 60 which cannot fit into the post area.
Any of you guys have an idea on how to do this?
Will be very much appreciated!
4:16 am on July 17th, 2008 (subscribed to comments)
Kevin, find the ‘main-wrapper’ section and try changing the ‘width’ from 435 to 468. Does it work?
9:47 am on July 17th, 2008 (subscribed to comments)
Hi Kye, thanks for your idea. I’ve tried that before but when I set it to 468px, all my middle bars and sidebars are moved to bottom after the post and comment area. I think because when the post area is set to 468px, it overlaps the sidebars so they are moved. So how do I fix this?
5:45 am on July 23rd, 2008 (subscribed to comments)
Kevin, you’ll have to shrink the ’sidebar-wrapper’ accordingly. i.e. +33px on main-wrapper, -33px on sidebar-wrapper. See if this works?
6:29 am on July 23rd, 2008 (subscribed to comments)
Hi again Kye. Thanks so much for helping. I tried to set the main-wrapper 468px and sidebar-wrapper from 500px reduced to 467px (which is -33px), but now the middle orange bar overlaps the right sidebar, and a few middle bar moved to bottom of the page.
Is there any other solutions? Maybe we should make the white background (the actual body) bigger than 1100px? The problem is, I cannot find the left and right margin of the post area. So I don’t know which tag to edit.
6:32 am on July 23rd, 2008 (subscribed to comments)
The actual body is called outer-wrapper I guess, which is 1010px. I’ll try to increase it by 33px to be 1043px.
7:13 am on July 23rd, 2008 (subscribed to comments)
Great! It’s solved now! I have 468px post-area now heh
Thanks much Kye.
5:24 am on July 24th, 2008 (subscribed to comments)
That’s great! Just curious, why do you want to change the width to 468px? Now, your page is wider than my browser, is that what you want?
Cool site by the way, any tips for my site to increase my ranking?
10:04 am on July 24th, 2008 (subscribed to comments)
Thanks Kye. I changed the width because I need to get one of the most common banner size which is 468×60 to fit into my post area. It looks good now.
By the way, which ranking are you referring to? I’ve posted some articles regarding SEO and how do we get ranked on my blog if you’re interested.
I’ve seen your blog and posted a comment there. Nice Dilectio template you have there. Good job bro.

When I’m posting in Blogger, the Blogger preview shows the formatting I want, but when I look at the site it’s all messed up!
Could you please have a quick look and see if you have any ideas what I can do?
Hope you get to this soon, I don’t want to have my blog live with these formatting errors for long.
Thank you!

Could you please have a quick look and see if you have any ideas what I can do?
Hope you get to this soon, I don’t want to have my blog live with these formatting errors for long.
Thank you!

Hi! Thanks for this awesome template. I’ve been messing with it a bit and I so far only have two problems. I looked at a few of the comments and I’m sorry if this has been answered already. First, I would like to change where it says “recent articles” to say “recent posts” and even if I change it on the layout page it won’t change on the site. I looked in the html and I can’t find where that is defined. I also didn’t find an image that was defined as that. The second thing is, I don’t want it to have that “Subscribe” part at the bottom. If you know how to get rid of that that would be great. Thanks again for a great template!

i have read all the comments for this template.
as many here i am too having the same problem of words getting wrapped around images..

this takes away the perfectness from the template…..

In response to Yogesh Goel’s question. I was having the same problem. If you have a picture smaller than the width of the post area, it’s going to wrap funny. Make sure that your pictures are big enough to fill the space. In fact, make them bigger and the template automatically puts them at the right size. I use this tag for putting pictures in my posts rather than using blogger:
If you use that, when your guests click on the picture they will be sent to the full size copy. I had a picture yesterday that was portrait sized and as long as the first word that is wrapping is longer than the extra space it won’t wrap. I had to put “—” with the word to keep it from wrapping. It’s not a terrible way to deal with it, much better than trying to change the HTML. I hope that helps!

Great theme, and you did a great job converting it to Blogger platform.
I just want to ask how you add AdSense before Blog Entry? Did you add the code manually?
Thanks,
