Show Comment Bubble At Top Of Each Blogger Posts



How To Make Comment Bubble At Top Of Blogger Posts,as you have seen it using in many blogs and i am sure you would not be knowing how to make and show that comment bubble count and link at top of the blogger post.So that's why i am here to make you learn it,and add it to your blogs.As its not as difficult as you might be thinking of.

As you would have checked my last blogger template-The latest Blogger template for sure and must have liked it.I have made 3-4 more proffesional templates for you,but unluckily today i got my exams schedule and will not be able to post these templates for you till 30 of july,so you have to wait for them ,as they need little finishng touch and testing with an installation guide,so will post these templates in beggining of august.

So we just continue with out tutorial on how adding comment bubble to top of each blogger posts.Some tutorials like these which you would like to read for sure are show labels as tags like woork and show post date as calender widget.

For demo of comment bubble you can check the my blog as i have comment bubble or check the demo blog too.






Now To make comment bubble,Just
Login to blogger > Then go to Layout > Edit/Html > Expand Widgets > Press Ctrl+F

And Search For ]]></b:skin> tag and place the below codes before it.


.comment-bubble {
float : right;
width : 48px;
height : 48px;
background : url(http://i43.tinypic.com/dljpzo.jpg) no-repeat;
font-size : 18px;
margin-top : -15px;
margin-right : 2px;
text-align : center;
position:absolute;
padding:0px 0px 0px 0px;
}

In red above is the image link of bubble,you can use yours and don't forget to change its width and height also of the image you use.To adjust the bubble position you can edit the distance from margin-right and margin-top properties of css.

Some Readers had problem in aligning the comment number in comment bubble.To adjust it just edit padding values according to you in above css.I have added four 0 values to padding,First one is for padding-top,Second for padding-left,third for padding-bottom and last for padding-right.

Now after adding above css just find the below codes and add the red codes in between them as i have shown below.


<b:includable id='post' var='post'>
<div class='post hentry uncustomized-post-template'>
<a expr:name='data:post.id'/>
<b:if cond='data:post.title'>
<h3 class='post-title entry-title'><b:if cond='data:post.allowComments'>
<a class='comment-bubble' expr:href='data:post.addCommentUrl' expr:onclick='data:post.addCommentOnclick'><data:post.numComments/></a>
</b:if>
<b:if cond='data:post.link'>
<a expr:href='data:post.link'><data:post.title/></a>
<b:else/>
<b:if cond='data:post.url'>
<a expr:href='data:post.url'><data:post.title/></a>
<b:else/>
<data:post.title/>
</b:if>
</b:if>
</h3>
</b:if>


Afer adding red codes in between them just preview your template,if comment bubble is ok,just save your template and you are done.Now you have added an comment bubble to bog in an very easy way you wouldn't have thought of.Enjoy this hack and let me know you liked it or not.
And Friends i will try to schedule one or two posts for you,but that for sure will be small blogger tutorials which also will be very useful for you to learn a lot.

Wish Me Good Luck For My Exams.sengihnampakgigi

Chic Mama said...

I absolutely love your blog.....I have done this bubble but really would prefer it slightly more to the left and slightly lower so that it looks as though it belongs to my post but I keep changing the figures but it's not budging. Do you have any suggestions please.
Thank you.

Anshul said...

@chic increase right value and decrease top value it should move for sure.

Chic Mama said...

Dear Anshul
Thank you, I've tried that but it's still not moving at all. Very strange.

Anshul said...

@chic then i would be needing your codes or admin to your blog to work it out.The only way i can help out.

I dun Know what to do. Can u help me out

you must be knowing webmaster tool for google requires a link in site like:
www. kaka . com/sitemap
which is not possible with blogger blog now what to do?

Anshul said...

@masil oh that is the problem.To add sitemap for blogger.Just add these 4 adresses.

http://yourblogname.blogspot.com/atom.xml

http://yourblogname.blogspot.com/rss.xml

masil said...

dear i did it but webmaster tool gave me a list of errors. but i added only one of them.

Anshul said...

@masil add all four and dont worry about errors it use to give it as blogger is not very seo and it will give errors about lable pages for sure.

masil said...

yaar so if it is giving some errors still it would crawl my pages?

masil said...

Heyzz.
Anshul Guide me from the very start if you dont mind..
1- i need to extract a xml sitemap for my site from a sitemap website...
2- then do i need to copy that xml text and paste it to a new article and publish it (post article)?
3- i need to make a feed of it.
4- after making a feed i need to copy the link to my webmaster tool..

IF I AM MAKING A MISTAKE ANYWHERE PLEASE GRAB IT AND RECTIFY IT.....

Thanks Anshul

Anshul said...

@masil not able to understand exactly what you wanted but i think that work for websites not for blogs.Just only one method to add sitemp of blog is only which i told by adding all four adress above to it.There is no other way to do that,you will end up wasting time,you are trying to do.

And extarct sitemap from other site is done with websites like you had pages on google sites extarct sitemap of it and then submit to google webmaster.And its accepts succesfully and take it.But in case of blogs it dont happens so dont waste time.Bcz blogger sitemap is feed adress and we are submittting only that to google webmasters.

masil said...

Anshul yaar sorry to say but i also cant get ur point.

Can you do it for mee???

Niku said...

guys, change "margin-left" to "margin-right" and increase the number. it moves! awesome trick.

Enzo said...

Please, in my blog the numbers don't work.

Enzo said...

Ok, I have done. It was an error in the colours.

Le Buduar said...

how to change the position of the post number?

Anshul said...

@le only position control is text-align center
do it left or right.

Le Buduar said...

oh too bad. my problem is the number isn't in the centre of the buble - it's too high.

ClearlyEnlight, said...

I am having the same problem the number will not center in the bubble.

Anshul said...

@Le Buduar and Clearly
I have added padding feature in css above just edit its value to adjust the number in the comment bubble.As i haven't added it before but due to problem to readers i am also editing post and writing about it.

Ms Hetal Patil said...

Hello Anshul,

I have tried this hack, but for me the bubble is going to extreme left. Can you help me please ??

Anshul said...

@MS just control float option to left or right and margin-right option to control it.Or use margin-left if nothing works.You have to adjust yourself.Or just can contact me at anshulaffprg[at]gmail.com if you not able to do it.

Waiting for ur reply..

Anshul said...

@hb i dont much about disqus i never used.But the thing is you have to take out codes which gives comment count fro disqus.As the tutorial will be same only the red codes i have shown in tutorial need to be chnaged with discus count.That you have to find what codes are there.I dont know about disqus.
