Add a parallax effect to Soho

Blogger's just launched a bunch of new templates. I put up some instructions for adding a parallax effect to Contempo - this article is the exact same effect, but for Soho!

If you scroll a little on this blog, you'll notice that I've got a subtle parallax effect going. That effect is just a small JS library by Mark Dalgleish, called Stellar.

To add the same parallax effect to your Soho template, just click this button! The content is shown below.


Alternatively, you can simply head to your blog's Layout tab, and add an HTML/Javascript gadget anywhere in the page.

Then, add the following content to it:

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.0/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src='https://cdn.rawgit.com/markdalgleish/stellar.js/master/jquery.stellar.min.js'></script>
<script>
$('.hero-image').attr('data-stellar-background-ratio', '0.5');
$(window).stellar({horizontalOffset: 50, verticalOffset: 50});
</script>


Make sure it doesn't have a title, hit save, and voila!

Happy Templating

Remove the header image for posts in Emporio

The new Emporio template features a large, blurred-out copy of the featured image for a post as the header image. Some like this feature, some don't - here's how to remove it if you're not a fan! Head to Theme => Edit HTML Search for ' data:view.isSingleItem ' The code that you see should look something like this:  <b:if cond='data:view.isSingleItem'> <b:if cond='data:widgets.Blog.first.posts.first.featuredImage'> <b:include data='{ image: data:widgets.Blog.first.posts.first.featuredImage, selector: &quot;.bg-photo&quot; }' name='responsiveImageStyle'/> <div class='bg-photo-container'> <div class='bg-photo'/> </div> </b:if> </b:if> Delete the XML including the <b:if> tag code. Happy Emporio'ing!

Rotate my Blogger images

Image
Blogger-uploaded images can be rotated by modifying the url to include '-r90' (or 180, or 270). Take, for example, the image below. URL: https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWVgBklYsvkxN7xwRlHuU8XWHdJTW7kpjJcEzMo2lD65tV4vwXuwHnPa3eiXZqUfpkdAYJMaTaPXO9RiEl1XY_tEfHWBEmBmnppNqP6_SovKyOe8gLd9-09TimKKdDZpIuMrjiPvg5hrOI/ s200 /IMG_2358.JPG If we switch the s200 to s200-r90 , we get the following image instead. URL: https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcVtM8EBB40qw43B0tA7X6wiErlfRxG3YDKqPPKluXQzFSghY5bjSw312509fa6BHCQjcUDevY4L194LL7n5lImmia7zBVfYohxezEJq1bdxRx_CCOyL06w0rQS9Rb2RkjpLVpIx3PjnGy/ s200-r90 /IMG_2358.JPG Happy rotating!

Add snippets to the Emporio theme

Image
A lot of people love the image-focused look of the newer Emporio template. This article explains how to tweak your template's XML to add a short snippet to the Emporio posts - unfortunately, there's no easy way to add in snippets for Emporio, without customizing the markup. But, if you're feeling brave, head to: Theme -> Edit HTML -> Jump to Widget -> Blog 1 If you search for 'snippet-container', you'll come across: <div class='snippet-container r-snippet-container'> <div class='r-snippetized'> <data:post.title /> </div> <b:if cond='data:post.title != ""'> <div class='snippet-fade r-snippet-fade hidden'></div> </b:if> </div> Notice that it's just got the title. You could change it to add something like: <div class='snippet-container r-snippet-container'> <div class='r-snippetized'> <data:post.
