Feed Widget

The Feed Widget only works when a visitor has JavaScript enabled. It uses the Google AJAX Feed API to dynamically replaces the first element it finds with an id whose value matches widget.instanceId + "_feedItemListDisplay". So in this case the Feed Widget is looking for id="Feed1_feedItemListDisplay".

  • widget.type: Feed
  • widget.instanceId: Feed1
  • title:
  • widget.sectionId: documented-widgets
  • widget.actionUrl: //blogger2ools.mystady.com/2011/04/picasa-hosted-png.html?widgetType=Feed&widgetId=Feed1 π
  • widget.quickEditUrl: //www.blogger.com/rearrange?blogID=8769510562916278720&widgetType=Feed&widgetId=Feed1&action=editWidget§ionId=documented-widgets π
  • edit-link: Edit
  • feedUrl: https://mystady.com/feeds/posts/default/-/Anime π
  • loadingMsg: Loading...
  • showItemDate: true
  • showItemAuthor: true
  • numItemsShow: 5
  • openLinksInNewWindow: true

Code Snippets

The standard-issue Feed Widget (last checked 4.19.10), uses a single includable which contains the following code snippet:

    <h2><data:title/></h2>
    <div class='widget-content' expr:id='data:widget.instanceId + &quot;_feedItemListDisplay&quot;'>
      <span style='filter: alpha(25); opacity: 0.25;'>
        <a expr:href='data:feedUrl'><data:loadingMsg/></a>
      </span>
    </div>
    <b:include name='quickedit'/>

The following code snippet demonstrates the minmum code required to render the feed items:

<div expr:id='data:widget.instanceId + "_feedItemListDisplay"' />

I used quotation marks (") instead of the HTML character entity &quot; because it's smaller (one byte vs. six) and makes for easier reading. The code above won't work outside the Feed Widget. In fact, you could potentially get a bX error depending on where you try to use it. The following code snippet demonstrates a (very simple) workaround:

<div id="Feed1_feedItemListDisplay" />

The following code snippet will replace the entire page with the Feed Widget. I can't think of any use for this...

<body id="Feed1_feedItemListDisplay">

Use the following classes to style the Feed Widget items: item-title, item-date, item-author.

Identifying Label Pages

The standard-issue Labels Widget (last checked 4.19.10), uses the following conditional statement to check if you're on a label page:

<b:if cond='data:blog.url == data:label.url'>

Unfortunately, that code only works on the first page. Replace it (both instances), with the following code snippet to have it work on all Label Pages:

<b:if cond='data:label.name == data:blog.searchLabel'>

Label Pages and Search Pages function similarly. See also Customizing Blogger's Search Result Pages With searchQuery.
