Memasang Related Post pada Sidebar

Menampilkan menu tambahan pada side bar bisa merupakan alternatif bagi blogger agar pembaca bisa melihat/membaca artikel yang ada secara mudah, Pada umumnya penempatan artikel yang terkait diletakkan  dibawah posting/artikel, dengan berbagai modifikasi, ada yang menambahkan icon disamping judul artikel, ada yang membuat related post dengan fungsi scroll dan ada yang membuat related post tampil dengan image, kali ini saya ingin berbagi mengenai cara membuat related post tampil di sidebar seperti di blog ini. caranya tidak sulit dan bahkan mudah untuk dilakukan.

Ikuti langkah Berikut :

1. Login ke account blogger anda, klik rancangan/layout lalu klik edit HTML
2. Jangan lupa centang expand widget templates untuk mengedit template secara keseluruhan
3. masukan kode dibawah ini sebelum tag </head>

    <script type="text/javascript">
    //<![CDATA[
    var relatedTitles = new Array();
    var relatedTitlesNum = 0;
    var relatedUrls = new Array();
    function related_results_labels(json) {
    for (var i = 0; i < json.feed.entry.length; i++) {
    var entry = json.feed.entry[i];
    relatedTitles[relatedTitlesNum] = entry.title.$t;
    for (var k = 0; k < entry.link.length; k++) {
    if (entry.link[k].rel == 'alternate') {
    relatedUrls[relatedTitlesNum] = entry.link[k].href;
    relatedTitlesNum++;
    break;
    }
    }
    }
    }
    function removeRelatedDuplicates() {
    var tmp = new Array(0);
    var tmp2 = new Array(0);
    for(var i = 0; i < relatedUrls.length; i++) {
    if(!contains(tmp, relatedUrls[i])) {
    tmp.length += 1;
    tmp[tmp.length - 1] = relatedUrls[i];
    tmp2.length += 1;
    tmp2[tmp2.length - 1] = relatedTitles[i];
    }
    }
    relatedTitles = tmp2;
    relatedUrls = tmp;
    }
    function contains(a, e) {
    for(var j = 0; j < a.length; j++) if (a[j]==e) return true;
    return false;
    }
    function printRelatedLabels() {
    var r = Math.floor((relatedTitles.length - 1) * Math.random());
    var i = 0;
    document.write('<ul>');
    while (i < relatedTitles.length && i < 20) {
    document.write('<li><a href="' + relatedUrls[r] + '">' + relatedTitles[r] + '</a></li>');
    if (r < relatedTitles.length - 1) {
    r++;
    } else {
    r = 0;
    }
    i++;
    }
    document.write('</ul>');
    }
    //]]>
    </script>

kemudian cari kode widget seperti dibawah ini :

    <b:if cond='data:post.labels'>
    <data:postLabelsLabel/>
    <b:loop values='data:post.labels' var='label'>
    <a expr:href='data:label.url' rel='tag'><data:label.name/></a><b:if cond='data:label.isLast != "true"'>,</b:if>
    </b:loop>
    </b:if>

Kemudian tambahkan kode yang warna merah pada kode tersebut :

    <b:if cond='data:post.labels'>
    <data:postLabelsLabel/>
    <b:loop values='data:post.labels' var='label'>
    <a expr:href='data:label.url' rel='tag'><data:label.name/></a><b:if cond='data:label.isLast != "true"'>,</b:if>
    <b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == "item"'> <script expr:src='"/feeds/posts/default/-/" + data:label.name + "?alt=json-in-script&amp;callback=related_results_labels&amp; max-results=10"' type='text/javascript'/>

    </b:if>

    </b:loop>
    </b:if>

• Save template
• Masuk ke menu Layout -> Page Elements dan add a new HTML/Javascript widget. beri judul atau title Title Related Post ( atau yang lain sesuai kebutuhan ) kemudian copy paste script di bawah ini : //bisa pasang dibagian mana saja//side bar//footer//sesuai kebutuhan//

    <script type="text/javascript">
    removeRelatedDuplicates();
    printRelatedLabels();
    </script>

Simpan dan lihat hasilnya..!
Selamat mencoba ....!

DIY Senegalese Storage Baskets

I love these baskets, but with the hefty price tag of $150 bucks I wasn't about to spend that kinda moola on a thing I throw poop covered kid clothes into. So what does one do when they want to find a cheap alternative to something fab.....

First: head to Home Goods

&

Second: Spray Paint the shit outta it!

The Inspiration:

I found this basket at Home Goods a while ago and I liked the shape of it. It was $59.99 so I snagged it up!

I decided to go with just a simple zig zag pattern.

 I taped the shape out.

I then took a paint brush with a bit of white paint on it and dry brushed it on to make the zig zag shape.

removed the tape

Even though I liked the way this looked just in the natural neutral tones I wanted to punch it up a bit so I taped back over the painted zig zags and sprayed some "Berry Pink" Painters Touch over the entire thing.

I left my paint a bit blotchy so it looked more natural and antiqued..

and Walla!

I tried and although I Still like the real ones better...mine will have to do for now.

Visualisasi 3D Rumah Walet di Bukit Pasir Malaysia

Gambar berikut ini adalah gambar Visualisasi 3D dari sebuah rumah walet yang berlokasi di Bukit Pasir, Malaysia. Konsep dan desain rumah walet ini, murni dari pemberi pekerjaan, karena Rumah Desain 2000 tidak memiliki pengalaman atau basic dalam mendesain sebuah bangunan rumah walet. Jadi Rumah Desain 2000 hanya mengerjakan visualisasi 3Dnya saja. Anda berminat membuat Bangunan rumah Walet?

Best from the Flip Side

I am such an admirer of all things "Down Under"

{OK sicko's, get your minds out of the gutter...}

I am talkin about Australia!

  G'Day Mates.

So many AMAZING things have come from this country....

The Crocodile Dundee

This cute Marsupial Bastard

And this HUGE Banana to name a few! 

The list goes on and on. Obviously all of the above is great and worth taking a billion hour flight just to see....However I just don't have that kinda time on my hands or patience for that matter. Thankfully though through the magic of the Internets I get to visit my own little piece of Australia everyday through all the lovely blogs i read..  There are some SERIOUSLY talented bloggers and interior designers that  all happen to hail from this crakin country. 

I love all of them and they are on my daily reads list... I am always intrigued to find more so If your a blogger I should know about, let me know. Anyways let's get into it

These are in zero particular order except for the way they came to my mind. And no I am not receiving money or being shipped a Koala bear for the positive endorsement.

This first blogger is really Fantastiche. She can blog like nobody's business and she has a pretty beauteous store as well.. go HERE to check out the store and HERE to check out her blog. She always blogs about bright and bold colors and I think has some awesome taste!

The shop has some really great pillows and lamps and accessories!

                            

Favorite thing from the store....definitely the hound lounge...or known as the Molly Dog Bed.

*********

Next up, a blogger and an AMAZING Interior designer/shop owner that needs no introduction,

The lovely and Talented Anna Spiro from Black and Spiro the store and the gorgeous blog Absolutely Beautiful Things, is one of those all mighty women that leave you wondering "How does she do it?"She has more talent in her pinkie nail than a whole room full of interior designers and I have yet to see a single thing that hasn't inspired me in some way.

Here are some of her most memorable rooms.

I would move right on in to any of these rooms....for reals!

******

Next up the cute and always entertaining Louise of Table Tonic Blog and Shop! She has such great style and her blog and store are FILLED to the brim with oodles of goodness.. Some highlights of Mrs. Tonic in all her glory! 

Look at the pink sofa, is this not brilliant? Ughhhh I need it!

Look at her daughter Anushka's room {P.S I lurve that name}

and her Master Bedroom

Go check out her SHOP and buy a Juju Hat

These next bloggers are the mecca go-to blog for inspirational photos...before Pintrest I pretty much got every single image that inspired me from Desire to Inspire. These ladies have a knack for finding everything pretty on the world wide webs and always seem to discover the coolest architects, photographers and designers around. If you have been living under a rock and have not yet perused this site..well then here ya go...Crack on!

Look at the Author Kim's kitchen....It's one of my ultimate favorite kitchens

And go to Jo's Page and watch her document the progress of her kitchen re-model. Love the book pages as wallpaper idea!

OK and last but certainly not least Porchlight Interiors. The design duo Hayley Hayes and Tracy Leeson have a knack for designing clean simple spaces with a modern twist on traditional.....or something like that. I love their blog and I really love their design style. If you don't follow the blog already please do and tell them I sent ya!!

And If ya Don't know, now ya know......
