Method to Display a Weather Forecast on Your Blogger

Before anyone use this widget, we will be giving some significant reasons why you should use it too, mainly discussing about its function. Let’s assume a visitor from London, England landed on your site. Now this widget would fetch the data from local weather company and would provide its details accurate. Now if the day is sunny, rainy, cloudy and etc.

Process to add weather in blogger: 

The first thing you need to do is to login into your blogger dashboard. Now go to Template >> Edit HTML >> and search for the skin tag, just above it paste the following piece of CSS coding (you can customize the code if you like, but we are certain that the default one would just be right for everyone).

MyWeatherDiv .centerContainer {
    width: 300px;
    text-align: left;
    margin-bottom: 200px;
}
.green {
    color: #a6e22d;
}
.teal {
    color: #66d9ef;
}
.purp {
    color: #ae81ff;
}
.pink {
    color: #f92772;
}
.yellow {
    color: #e6db74;
}
.white {
    color: #f8f8f2;
}
.grey {
    color: #616161;
}
.f12 {
    font-size: 12px;
}
.MyWeatherDiv img {
    height: 64px;
    width: 64px;
}
.weatherInfoRight {
    z-index: 999;
    position: fixed;
    top: 10px;
    right: 10px;
}
.weatherInfoLeft {
    z-index: 999;
    position: fixed;
    top: 10px;
    left: 10px;
}
.weatherInfoBottomRight {
    z-index: 999;
    position: fixed;
    bottom: 10px;
    right: 10px;
}
.weatherInfoBottomLeft {
    z-index: 999;
    position: fixed;
    bottom: 10px;
    left: 10px;
}
.MyWeatherDiv {
    display: none;
    background-color: #272822;
    padding: 5px;
    -webkit-border-radius: 10px;
    border-radius: 10px;
}
.MyWeatherInfo {
    text-align: center;
    font-family: 'Segoe UI',Tahoma,Helvetica,Sans-Serif;
    color: white;
    font-size: 14px;
}
#divMyImage {
    display: none;
}
.MyWeatherClose {
    font-family: 'Segoe UI',Tahoma,Helvetica,Sans-Serif;
    cursor: pointer;
    position: absolute;
    right: 10px;
    color: white;
    font-size: 20px;
}
.MWTemperature {
    display: block;
}
.MWPlace {
    display: block;
}
.MWIP {
    display: block;
}
#clear-day {
    display: none;
}
#clear-night {
    display: none;
}
#partly-cloudy-day {
    display: none;
}
#partly-cloudy-night {
    display: none;
}
#cloudy {
    display: none;
}
#rain {
    display: none;
}
#sleet {
    display: none;
}
#snow {
    display: none;
}
#wind {
    display: none;
}
#fog {
    display: none;
}

The second thing is to add the JavaScript file that does the work quite brilliantly. Within your blogger template search for the </head> tag and just above it paste the following JS Coding. (We recommend you to please host the script on your own either on Google Drive or any other service because our script might go down if our quota of bandwidth gets full).

<script type="text/javascript" src="https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/137869302/weather.js"></script>

Lastly, add this styling javascript file just above the </body> tag. You can change the position of the gadget by replacing  position: "right" to left or center. There are many other options for your customization, which could be useful to match your site’s setting.

<script type="text/javascript">
$.MyWeather({
    position: "right",
    showpopup: true,
    temperature: "c",
    closeicon: true,
    showicon: true,
    showtemperature: true,
    showlocation: true,
    showip: true,
    size: 80,
    iconcolor: "white",
    fontcolor: "white",
}, function (e, f, g, a, d, b, c) {
    $("#txtCity").html(e);
    $("#txtCountry").html(f);
    $("#txtIP").html(g);
    $("#txtLatitude").html(a);
    $("#txtLongitude").html(d);
    $("#txtTemperature").html(b);
    $("#picTemp").attr("src", c)
});
</script>

<script type="text/javascript">
new GambitSmoothScroll({
    amount: 150, // The scroll amount
    speed: 900 // The scroll speed
});
</script>
Note: Make sure your blogger template has jquery.min.js or jquery.js file. In case you are unable to find this file on your blogger template then add it manually. Add the following code below the <head> tag.
<script src='http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.2/jquery.js' type='text/javascript'></script>
Once everything is done, save the template by pressing “Save Template” button and you have successfully added a cool smooth mouse wheel scroll effect in blogger.

    Embed PDF and other Documents In Blogger Blog Posts

    Embed PDF and other Documents In Blogger Blog Posts
    There are many ways through which we can embed PDFs or other documents like Microsoft Word, Spreadsheets, PowerPoint Slides, and Excel Spreadsheets into our Blogger Blog. However, Google Docs is probably the most authentic and reliable way of embedding the PDF documents in a website. Therefore, today in this article, we will show you How to Embed PDFs or any other documents in Blogger Blog Posts.

    First, go to https://drive.google.com  and Sign in into your Gmail or Google account so that you have the admin privilege to the documents that would upload from your system hard drive. 

    After signing in to your Google account, the next thing is to upload a PDF file from your system hard drive. On pressing the upload icon from the left side panel a drop down menu will pop out which would consist of two options i.e. File and Folder. Just select “File” and head to the next step.

    Now it will inquire you to select the PDF (document) that you want to embed on your website. Now press the open button and move to the next step.
    On pressing the open button a small upload wizard would appear on the right side of your screen. It usually takes a minute or two to upload, but it entirely depends upon the size of your file and the speed of your internet connection.

    Once uploading is finished, click on the file name and it will take you to a new page. Before, you can embed the document you have to change the permission of the file to the public. Thus, select the share button displaying at the top right corner of your screen and change the permission of the file from private to open.

    Press change, and select “public on the web” so anyone on the Internet can find and access. No sign-in required. Finally, press the Save button to conclude the wizard. For detailed instructions, check out the following screenshot.
    After changing the permission settings, now it’s time to grab the embed code. From the quick access tool bar select File >> Embed this PDF file. Now a new window will appear which would provide you the Embed code, copy the whole code and proceed to the next step.

    After copying the code go to Blogger.com >> Create a new Post >> Select HTML Tab, and paste the code where you would like to see the document to appear. Now within the code that you pasted few moments a go search for /preview and replace it with /edit?usp=sharing. Now publish your article, and that’s it. See the following screenshot.
    By default the width of the document is set to 640 pixels while the height is set to 480 pixels. You can reduce the width and height according to your needs. You should now see a PDF attached to your blog posts along with some significant options like download and etc.

    Add Automatically Title/Alt tag to Images in Blogger

    Add Automatically Title/Alt tag to Images in Blogger

    SEO optimization is very necessary for your blog. And you need to optimize all the elements of the site according to SEO. Image Alt tag is very important. Because google can't read the images, but google determines the type of image from its alt text. So, in order to get your image in Google Images search result you need to add the title and alt text to your images. So, here I am going to share another amazing blogger widget which will automatically adds the title and the alt text to all bogger images.


    Have Lots of Images?

    If you have lots of images, then it is very very time consuming and boring to add the alt and title text to each image one by one. To make this work easy I have designed a little plugin for blogger which will automatically adds the alt and title text to all images. Means you don't need to add the alt text manually. Just upload the images and you are done. The work of adding title and alt tag to images will done this plugin.

     Also if you have some old post images which are also missing the title and alt tag, then you don't need to add alt tag to images manually, this script will automatically adds the title and alt tags to all images of your blogger site. Great na!!

    How to Add Automatically Title/Alt tag to Images in Blogger

    Want to install this widget? if yes then follow the below simple steps:

    Goto Blogger Dashboard
    Goto Template Tab
    Click on Edit HTML
    Now search for the </body> tag
    Now paste the below code just above the </body> tag.
    <script src='https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.3/jquery.min.js' type='text/javascript'/> 
    <script type='text/javascript'> 
     //<![CDATA[ 
     $(document).ready(function() { 
      $('img').each(function(){ 
       var $img = $(this); 
       var filename = $img.attr('src') 
       $img.attr('title', filename.substring((filename.lastIndexOf('/'))+1, filename.lastIndexOf('.'))); 
       $img.attr('alt', filename.substring((filename.lastIndexOf('/'))+1, filename.lastIndexOf('.'))); 
      }); 
     }); 
     //]]> 
     </script>
    Now click on Save Template.
    That's it you have successfully installed the widget

    Customization

    Most of the blogger templates have already add the Jquery Library. So, if the jquery library is already presents in your blogger template then just remove the highlighted code line from the code. But if the jquery library is not present in your template then don't remove the highlighted text, otherwise the widget don't work.

    How This Widget Work


    If you are curious about the widget that how it works? How it adds the title and alt text to images and from where it gets the title and alt text? Then here I am going to explain it. This widget gets the name of the image which you have entered to image before uploading and adds that name as a title and alt text of the image.
    Note: So, keep in mind that before uploading the images don't forget to properly rename the image files according to your post topic, so that you get the right alt text to your images.

    Final Words


    Hope guys that this widget might helps you in optimizing your blogger site. In my case, this widget helps me a lot. At first I designed this widget for my images site where I upload different types of images like wallpapers, gifs, comics etc. But after I see the benefits of this widget I decided to share it with you guys. Let me know if you have anything to say in below comment box.

    Don't forget to share this post, and Stay blessed, Stay Smiling and Happy SEO and Blogging. :)
