Download Wonderful Blogger Template 'Connexion'-
Ok... as I promised before to design more and more Blogger templates for you guys.. here is my latest entry 'Connexion'.This was originally a wordpress theme designed by Jinsona of web2feel.com for wordpress.org users.I converted it to our friendly blogger :)
Take a look at the below screenshot or look at this Live Demo of the template and download here.
Please read the below instructions carefully:
After uploading the template using the upload button in "Template »» Edit html", you have to do a couple of things.
1.Change the top navigation links to your desired ones..
this is how to do:-
Scroll down the template untill you find this piece of code...
and Replace the anchor text (Home,pictures,etc) and add the corresponding link replacing the # symbol
2. Change the RSS Feed link.
Find this code below
and Replace the feedburner link (http........./yourfeed) to your's and SAVE THE CHANGES.
Hope you like it! More template are on the way... don't forget to come back and check for updates!

I would love to see something similar for Indianapolis!!!
You are really great with the way you explain your points here. thats why i visit your site daily to learn. But i have a little problem here on how to add a custom domain name to my site. Please i will like you to explain to me in pictures if possible how to add a domain name to my free blogger use a domain name i purchased from Godaddy registers.
thanks as i expect to read from you today.
Excellent site!!
Simple instructions and wonderful designs.
I'm wondering, though, if there's a way to change the header-photo (for those of us who don't live in New York!).
I've tried a couple ways but they just leave the image badly cropped...
Thanks for everything!
=========================
@ laszlo panaflex,
Hi,you can change the header image for any template.
If you want to change the header pic in this template... do this:
First,design your own header of 1000 X 238px and upload to any image hosting service and copy the direct link of that image.
Next,sign in to blogger >>Template >>Edit html and scroll down the template a little bit and replace this url with the one you uploaded..
http://myblogtalk.com/bloggertemplates/connexion/images/connexion-top.jpg
that's it!
=============================
Do you have any hack that shows how to separate post blocks on homepage, just like you did on this template ?
Hi kranthi -
First - thanks for the ultra-quick reply!
Okay, I did just as you directed; put a photo of mine into Photoshop, changed the image size to 1000 x 238 px, saved, put it up on Photobucket.com, copied the direct link and pasted it over the '...connexion-top' url, and I got a "repeat" picture - the main one plus three other edges surrounding it.
I thought it might be the photo, so I found the 'connexion-top.jpg', uploaded it to Photobucket (and took it off again afterward), and did the same thing, and it repeated as well!
I looked for an 'image:repeat' line in the template code but there is none, so I suppose there's a kink in one of the steps I'm taking...
Thanks for the effort!
================================
Hi Laszlo Panaflex,
I visited your site and looked at the source code... and found that you are using this pic as header
http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a147/twitchipoo/angelsoldiersgraff1000x238.jpg
That pic you are using is 190px.. but I said to create 238px;
There are two solutions for this.. first is to create another header image of height 238px and if you are lazy to do it...
here is another simple solution..
change the
height:238px in your template code to height:190px and save the changes...
it works!
=========================================
a really amazing site for blogs explaining crystal clear the things, keep up the good work!
absolutely love this template. used your background but modified my header a bit. Thank you so much for this.
Is there a way to include the quick edit icon on the posts so I can access it quickly?
Sorry to ask..
I don't understand the number 1 instruction above. What is the corresponding link? How to activate the link (home,picture...)
Thanks for this template. Lovely. I've used it and changed my header and some back ground colors, but i would like to change the color that is around each post (the dark grey color, not the white) where do i find the code for this section? I've gone through the edit html and replaced colors, and i can't seem to find the location for this. thanks for your help.
aandione@yahoo
hi dude, that is not a color,that is an image.
I supplied you the image files aswell in the download file.. open that images and edit the required colors using photoshop and upload the pics again..
thx.
hi!
for some weird reason, an "email post" option appears on the bottom right corner of every post. i think it's not supposed to be there.
what did i do wrong?
this is my blogsite:
http://www.deariago.blogspot.com/
hi Kranthi,
how can i make navi link like u make on Connexion
can i make it to in my blog
thx
hello mate. Nice template. I am planing to use it.. but would like to know if it is possible to change white colour of posts to gray, same as beackground. And where or how? Any suggestion? Thanks
Sash
Help I can't see my header picture. I uploaded picture to blogger and I even changed the pixel from 238 to 242
Kranthi-
What a sweet template this is!!!
I have a few questions for you though...
1.) The date is missing on some of my post's. It is on most of them but some of them are disappearing.
2.)Is there anyway to display a time-stamp??
3.) Is there anyway to get a two-column version of this theme with a footer for widgets?
Thanks for the template and the help.
My blog is located at http://bronxstop.blogspot.com if that helps.
Thanks dude.
This is a beautiful template. So far, though, one problem with it, and that's the post dates are also including the day before the date, making it too long to fit into the .png of the tab.
Where in the template is that being controlled? I'd like to eliminate the day of the week and just have the date.
Thanks.
heya mate.
Nice template and I +ve used it for my blog. But I miss one feature.
I would like to see section "last comments" on the right side. Maybe any idea of the code ?
Please, thanks.
hi Saso,
Go to Layout »» Add a Page element »» Feed
Now, type http://YOURBLOGNAME.blogspot.com/feeds/comments/full and Click Continue. Give it a title like 'Previous Comments'
and Save the changes.
Wow, it works. Thanks mate. Maybe one little thing? It is possible to add new page to my blog? So like I could click to link above (for example: "picture") and link could take me to another page ON MY BLOG. For example: MYBLOGNAME.blogspot.com/pictures
And thanks for your effort. You rock ! ;)
eh, will explain again, simple way
I wan't to be redirected from that link on my blog above (now I have links for photos, videos etc that don't work yet. But will like to add "about" link too) to another same page, just where I could write legal rights to my pictures and some simmilar stuff. So clicking to above line "about" would redirect to another page with same layout of blog
hi Saso,
that's simple. Create a new post with all your pictures and create another one about you and publish those two posts.After publishing, go to your blog and right click on the titles of the posts and copy the link addresses.
For example, I published this post about connextion template and the link to this is
http://bloggertricks.com/2008/06/wonderful-blogger-template-connexion.html
Similarly, you get a link like above one.. simply use this link in the place of # as explained in the post and save the template.
Yea.. but main post will still be visable in front page, right? I don't want to be. I only want to be seen in "about me" page.
Thanks for help
Sash
mate, can you check my blog? Aparently header, white background of posts dissapiered. Any idea what happened?

Even If i tried to "point" new same header image, nothing happened.

Thank you - Talín
Question: I love this template but not keen on the the white background on the posts, is there a way to change the color
Hi. Love the template; stayed up all night moving my blog to a test site to try out this beauty. I do have a question:
I can't seem to get the header I designed to display without the blog title text, and Blogger doesn't allow me to leave the blog title blank. How do I hide the blog title text?
Here's a link so you can take a look:
http://alabamagamedaytoo.blogspot.com/
Thanks in advance...
Love the template; quick question:
Can't seem to make the blog title text disappear; it shows over the new header image I created. What am I missing?
http://alabamagamedaytoo.blogspot.com/
Hi, To remove the blog title, remove the template code from :
(b:section class='blogname' id='top'
.
.
.
.
/b:section)
[Note: Replace ( and ) with < and >
Hi Kranthi,
Loving the layout. One question though. Any idea how to display the Blog Archives section properly, it doesn't come out right.
http://billiontyonethgeek.blogspot.com/
Thanks!
Dear Kranthi..
Thanks 4 your good job.
But I've similiar problem with "Sašo ", how to not make a double post for every links (videos, Pict etc)??
Regards
Hey Kranthi,
I've found a piece of coding that may help other users if they want to display the Author Name and Catergories for each of the posts they've made.
First look for the following coding, replace round brackets ( ) with < and >:
(b:if cond='data:blog.pageType .... )
(b:if cond='data:post.allowComments')
(a class='comment-link' expr:href)....(/a)
(/b:if)
(/b:if)
Right after, insert this code:
Posted by (data:post.author/),
(b:if cond='data:post.labels')Categories:
(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)
Remember to replace round brackets ( ) with < and >. That should place the author name, and categories, right beside where it says Comments (#) on the bottom left of the post. Hope this is helpful. I'd still like to fix the Blog Archives part. Cheers on your excellent design, my blog readers think its sleek.
Hi Teh Lam
My brackets are alredy < and >.
So I inser right after your mentioned code, but do NOT work.
What can be?
Regards
does it work on non-blogspot i.e. on the old blogger system?
Ads between posts does not work with this template, it seeems
Kranthi:
Thanks so much for the assist on my blog under construction (http://alabamagamedaytoo.blogspot.com). Now, I'm going to get greedy.
How possible would it be to incorporate the 3-column features and above-the-fold ad spaces of the "Pepper" template to the color-and-graphics scheme of "Connexion?"
Since this is out of my league, I'd say it's definitely worth a donation for that. If it's something you care to tackle, lemme know here or by emailing webmaster@alabamagameday.net
Talin,
With the code I mentioned, change those brackets ( ) to < >. I only wrote them as round brackets because commenting here doesn't allow the triangle brackets.
Otherwise, I'm not too sure. That's all I added to my coding.
I love this template, very much, thanks!
My blog is clean and bautiful. Kiss...
Eu amei esse templante, demais, obrigado!
Meu blog está claro e bonito. Beijo...
Kranthi:
Can you confirm you got my email? I've had a few people say they have problems receiving email from me.
If not, I can resend, or post here.

Can you give me a link?
Thank you!
Congratulations about the beautiful job!
I have a problem.
Some pictures doesn't displayed on IE, only in Firefox. Is it a bug?
Thanks
Hi, I'm having a problem with the sidebar. If you check, you'll see a part that's jumbled. I've tried switching the bottom two, and that section always comes out jumbled. If I move categories under "subscribe email", the bottom becomes jumbled.
*sigh* I sound jumbled. They each work fine if I just move the widget somewhere else, but one part towards the bottom two are always jumbled.
nice template, i will use it for my new blog
Hi Kranthi
I'm using connexion Template. From morning it showing some strange image of Photobucket. which say Bandwidth exceeded.Upgrade to Pro !
I've no idea what is happening.
please tell me what to do?
Thanks
Kasana
Hi...it looks like there is something wrong with the images. Photobucket says that the bandwidth is exceeded.
I have not had a problem with this design until this morning. It seems you exceeded your bandwidth. Not a big deal, I had backups of all the images used in the template and I hosted them myself and just replaced the links in the html code. That's all I did. Now when I post, the text exceeds the post design. Check out the screenshot below. Help please!

Hi Kranthi, thank you for the templates, can you convert another wordpress template for us?... :) ... please...
http://www.gabfire.com/demo/index.php?wptheme=Domino
Thanks to The Lam's tip, I could add the labels:)
---
To add the timestamp, identify the following part ( I changed <> to () );
(div class='post-header-line-1'/)
(div class='cover')
(div class='entry')
...and add this, changing () to <>;
(small)Posted by (a href='YOUR PROFILE PAGE URL' target='_blank')(data:post.author/)(/a) at (data:post.timestamp/)(/small)
---
Or if you don't like the location, add right before the comments;
(span class='alignleft')
------------------ADD HERE!!!!--------
(b:if cond='data:blog.pageType != "item"')

Hi kranthi, I need help with my template, which is equal to his. I can not make the date appear on top of the post. Can you help me? My blog is http://fidelidadealta.blogspot.com/
Thank you
Hello Good Man.
I like this Templete. THANKS you are very Sharing.have a nice day.Thanks for helping me and helping everybody.You are nice Guy.
Photobucket busted it...
The background picture is not working. Getting an error message from Photobucket. Please let us know if this problem can be corrected. Otherwise, I'm gonna have to switch to a new template.
Thanks.
Olá I adored its templade, fell as a glove my profession, but acontenceu a strange thing, for gentility as decides this? http://www.fernandolimadesenhista.blogspot.com/ since already I am thankful
Love the template! However today all the photobucket images had their bandwith exceeded. Are the images hosted anywhere else?
I really like this template!
I like how its classy, sleek, and modern with the grey/black combination, and I think the index card look for each post is really nice - I don't like it when multiple posts start to run together (visually) when I'm reading a blog, especially if the posts have a lot of images.
I've got a blog that this theme would be perfect for, and I might give it a try in the next few weeks.
Great....Thanks for Sharing with us..
Beautiful Template, Kranthi.
However, I had a couple of quick questions.
1) Is there a way that I can post the date on every post instead of just once a day? I do several posts a day and would like all of them to have a date stamp.
2) Can I add the author's name at the bottom of each post next to the comments?
Thanks
Hey guys, how are you ?
I've a dought with my blog template, because I cannot include the author name of the posts.
As you can see here, (http://sentidodestado.blogspot.com) there's only
a space for the comments but I also would like to include the author ID.
Any help ? Thanks
i'd use this but the tabs for the date headers aren't long enough, not everyone uses month, date, year. Some also like the day of the week so it pushes it off. Otherwise nice looking template
Amazing template! Really easy to use... thank you!
I'm having some issues with adding the labels gadget with blogger in the right sidebar. When I add it, it lists the (# of posts) under the label and not next to it. It looks tacky. Any help?
www.windycityabstract.com is the url.
I get this message:
Your template could not be parsed as it is not well-formed. Please make sure all XML elements are closed properly.
XML error message: The document type declaration for root element type "html" must end with '>'.
Any advice?
Hi there! I downloaded this (connexion)template, but when I open it from my desktop it directs me to an internet page that says this:
