<description>&lt;p&gt;Can you help I want to use the widget for my blog but am really fustrated in trying to set up my storefront. Not only is it really slow to type and move from one field to the next it constanly freezes my computer. First I thought it was because my old desk top comp is really old but its even worse on my brand new laptop. Why is this happening. I really don&amp;#39;t want the hassel of setting up another web site but unless I can get this to work will have to.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;I am just now dipping my toe in the e-commerce/blog waters. Currently, I simply have an offsite Printfection store with some T-shirts. (It&amp;#39;s similar to Cafepress and Zazzle.) Thanks for the comprehensive overview of the options.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Ideally, what I would like to do is combine an apparel storefront like Printfection with a book publishing one like Lulu. However, I think that would be some programming work and depend on the APIs of the various vendors. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If I could also integrate Amazon.com affiliate sales, even better, but I don&amp;#39;t think Amazon would be too keen on that. Although, I suppose publish through Lulu and distribute books through Amazon. Wonder if cafepress and their ilk also offer options to distribute through Amazon&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<link>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/TypepadHacksConversations/~3/8FzkK6gUORE/sidebar-and-con.html</link>
<description>&lt;p&gt;Hey fellows. Recently took over administrating the teacher blogs for the middle school where I work. Been doing some research online and am considering just building a theme from the ground up since as you say the pre-defined don&amp;#39;t &amp;quot;play nice.&amp;quot; I really like some of the elements of the Morgan green theme in Typepad, but want to get rid of the brown background gradient behind the banner and just stretch the green floral banner all the way across the page. Is this possible to do using CSS? I have a Pro acct and not much experience using CSS (none, in fact except what I have been mucking about with in my redesign efforts today.) Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!  &lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;John this is a great hack.  &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I tried it but it does not work quite as written and I think I am doing something wrong.  Do the instructions from 2006 still work on today&amp;#39;s TypePad Advanced Templates?  Is there something better?&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<title>Comment by Mr Ulster on "Drop Down Menus for Categories + Archives"</title>
<link>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/TypepadHacksConversations/~3/nyfPX1T0RW0/drop_down_menus.html</link>
<description>&lt;p&gt;@Susan (and others with non-Advanced template access):&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Like you I do not have a TypePad Pro account; alas only Plus account and thus unable to implement this hack.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;However, here is a workaround along the lines of your request:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;1. For your blog, go to Design tab&amp;gt;Content&lt;br /&gt;
2. Insert Module=Monthly Archives (under Modules list)&lt;br /&gt;
3. Save Changes (button at bottom of page)&lt;br /&gt;
4. View Weblog (link upper right corner)&lt;br /&gt;
5. Find Monthly Archives module, and copy URL for &amp;quot;More...&amp;quot; link (right-click&amp;gt;copy)&lt;br /&gt;
6. Still logged into TypePad, go to TypeLists tab&amp;gt;Create a new TypeList&lt;br /&gt;
7. Link Type=Notes; name as desired (e.g. Archive List)&lt;br /&gt;
8. For Label, leave blank; for Note, enter &amp;quot;(a href=&amp;quot;[paste URL you copied step 5 above, should end /archives.html]&amp;quot; target=&amp;quot;_blank&amp;quot;)Archives(/a) [replacing parentheses with carrots as appropriate]&lt;br /&gt;
9. Save, Configure, Publish&lt;br /&gt;
10. View Weblog (I&amp;#39;d refresh the cache to force new page version)&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Delete original Monthly Archives Module as desired.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Not as clever as drop menus, but good enough for this non-Pro TypePad user: &lt;a href="http://mrulster.org" rel="nofollow"&gt;Mr Ulster&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;Yeah but there is no way to remove that tacky Get Widget link on the bottom, even after you pay. The CEO himself refunded my money when I brought this up.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;They claim &amp;quot;no advertising&amp;quot; when you become a paid subscriber, but it&amp;#39;s a filthy lie because that Get Widget BS links right back to their site, not yours. They call this &amp;quot;viral marketing&amp;quot;, and it is. Widgetbox is a virus, and they&amp;#39;re marketing at the expense of your apparent professionalism.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Long story short, Widgetbox is a terrible service. If you do pay, don&amp;#39;t ever count on getting your money back under any circumstance. I am lucky I did.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;Picnik is amazing!! I&amp;#39;m a writer, and not very technical so it&amp;#39;s such a relief not to have to learn Photoshop. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#39;ve just created a new banner for my blog by sprucing up a photo that wasn&amp;#39;t very good, strategically cropping it and then putting the blog name across it. There&amp;#39;s loads of fonts to choose from which is pretty good. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I pay for the upgraded account, it is definitely worth it. &lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;Hi John - I&amp;#39;ve got a request for technical advice. It doesn&amp;#39;t feel right to post it here but the forum seems to have a glitch that won&amp;#39;t let me see it and you do say you prefer questions in public comments than private mails. So sorry if this isn&amp;#39;t the place.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I use the  instructions given in the Typepad knowledge base to put streaming mp3s on my pages. But I find that they only show the play button in IE; in Firefox I get the message that a plugin is necessary. It then invites me to install Quicktime. I get this in Firefox on two different pcs. Neither has Quicktime. (I don&amp;#39;t want QT.) One has Quicktime Alternative. I get the same message on both. In the one with QTA, I&amp;#39;ve chekced the mime types and mp3 is excluded. I&amp;#39;ve gone through this with Typepad support but they&amp;#39;ve given up and referred me to Adobe. They say they see the streaming button fine on my pages.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The code is &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;An example page is http://normanlamont.typepad.com/music/roadblock.html&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Do you know where it&amp;#39;s going wrong?&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;Hi I&amp;#39;m setting up a new blog and have succesfully mapped my domain www.vanzoekernaarklant.nl to http://vanzoekernaarklant.typepad.com. Nothing is indexed by Google yet, but my question is:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;How do I make sure Google will only index my own domain versions of the articles, so e.g. http://www.vanzoekernaarklant.nl/2008/12/zoekwoorden-onderzoek-wat-zijn-de-meest-gebruikte-keywords.html but not http://vanzoekernaarklant.typepad.com/weblog/2008/12/zoekwoorden-onderzoek-wat-zijn-de-meest-gebruikte-keywords.html&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;hope you can help me out!&lt;/p&gt;</description>

I have been working on a tool http://www.rsstotwitter.com which does as the name says, takes rss feeds and sends them to Twitter. Four simple fields is all you have to fill in.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
