Blog EntryAdding New Content Boxes to Your PageNov 3, '07 2:43 PM
by Luiz Felipe for everyone

Feeling envy of the older users that have a Recipe or Market section but you don't? Feel no more... With the Tagged Content boxes you can do almost the same.

How does it work? Simple: it will create a new box in your main page with all the entries you have with a selected tag or tags. For example, if you want to have a Recipes section, create blog entries with the tag 'recipes' and then create a Tagged Content box to group these entries.

From the official Multiply blog:
If you use the "Boxes" homepage layout (as opposed to "Linear"), you can now create new boxes on your homepage that display content based on the tags you've given them.

That's right, in addition to the usual boxes like "Photos" and "Videos," you can now mix and match tags to your heart's content... and display your creations on your Multiply homepage. If you ever wished for a box displaying your latest posts related to, say, business, pirates and trees, this feature makes your wish come true.

To set this up, just click the familiar "Customize Site" link on your homepage, and follow this with the aptly-titled "Add Tagged Content Box" link. You'll get a pop-up that you can use to set the options for your box -- particularly what should be displayed (pick one or more tags), and how it should be displayed (box title, number of entries to display). Once you've created your box, you can manipulate it like any other content type box: drag it around, hide it, edit it... And here's the best part: you can make multiple tag boxes!


If you feel comfortable with HTML and CSS, you can even add the new boxes to the navigation menu. Just follow the instructions found in this entry from the Multiply.Design group (where you can find more info about customizing your page too):

Great, isn't it?


Blog EntryBlank when viewing individual photoOct 7, '07 4:09 PM
by Dreamz OnForever for everyone

hi,

I am a newbie.  I have started to create my website recently (www.dreamzonforever.multiply.com) . I need some help...

I have uploaded photos to albums.  When I went to the album, i could see all the thumbnails of the photos in the album.  However when I clicked individual photo for viewing, I could see the system flashed that particular photo within millisecs, then left with a blank photo with only push pin frame.  either I clicked <next> or <prev> to view other photos, it was the same result. 

Please kindly advise what could be the cause of this or any setup that I have missed or done incorrectly.

Thanks in advance.

There are many ways to customize your site here on Multiply. But if you're tired of the one-click customized themes that are currently available on Multiply, and you're ready to step out and try something new, then click on over to the Customized Themes group here on Multiply.

This group is a place to share themes. It is not a "how to" group. So if you have questions about how to create your own theme, you might first want to check out this thread right here in the New To Multiply group.

But if you have a redesign that you're willing to share, or if you want to come and find a refreshing new look for your site, come check out the Customized Themes group.


Blog EntryPictures in the textJul 6, '06 4:33 AM
by Jens for everyone
It is possible to have quite a lot of HTML in the text you type in multiply, but as HTML is not that easy to learn, I thought I'd tell you how I do it. I use Mozilla Firefox, I am not sure if this works with other browsers.

When I have saved a photo in an album I mark with the mouse the thumbnail photo then i right-click the mouse and select "View selection source", and I can see the HTML source, Normally I only want the image and the link that it bring with it so I look for the <A href="..."> <IMG src="..."> </A> part of the html. I then also use the <TABLE> and its associated <TH>, <TR> and <TD> in order to make the layout look nicer.

To see how I can make nice entries check out my top ten volcano visits image gallery, where each entry has several links to other photos taken at that location

When posting new photos on multiply it is now no longer possible to right-click them to see the thumbnail and its image link, they have done this by not showing the thumbnail as a thumbnail but rather as the background while the image shown is just a nothing.

To make things even more tricky multiply will have all thumbnails of the album in one image. and then using offset in that image to display each thumbnail as if it was only one image. The advantage of this approach is that it will be a bit faster to load as you do not have to load many photos but rather one and then displaying it again and again with different offset. you can still find the URL of this picture by viewing the HTML-source that is made to show the thumbnail, but it is not that easy. on the left you can see how the thumbnail of my album from the Vasa museum looks:
