I found out great techniques to make your blogger site cool!
Let's start by making a home page for all your home page needs.
This tip came from Blogger Hints and Tips
First, when editing your blogger site, got to pages.
Let's create a new page,
And name it home.
Save and publish this page.
Close out the editor,
And lets view our newly created page.
Take note of the ending in the address bar, we will use this shortly.
Let's go over to settings, editing your blogger again.
It opens up, so go to Search Preferences.
We are going to redirect people from our original site root to this new page sub-directory. we do this be adding a custom redirect. Please remember to select permanent.
Save that out and view your blog! You will no longer see your posts when first entering your page, but don't worry, they are still in your blogger site. We will now need to transfer out those posts, because the redirect hides that page from view. I learned from this website.
Go to layout
Find Add a Gadget under Cross-Column. (depending on your layout, you may have it in a sidebar as a list)
Add pages by scrolling down
And for now, check the second home; this is the one we made earlier.
Save that out and go to the posts in the posts column in the editor.
Edit the posts you want and add the label you would put them under, I'll just use test as an example.
Back to the pages, edit gadget.
When the dialogue pops up, click the add external link.
This will pop up, use your default root and add on /search/label/ followed with your label. Do this for as many labels as you want. Save link and save gadget
Go on to Save arrangement
They will show up in your pages gadget when you view the page, as such:
And one last final change I made is in the customize layout, In the advanced tab under add CSS, you can change the way your html links look by visiting this page.
Have you ever though of color-coding to increase your workflow? Well I just jumped into it feet first and it worked so well to guide my thought I decided to share. And sharing is caring. Maybe I care too much. That's not the point. Point is, wanna be good at putting thought to paper? Follow this quick sesh.
Bam! A big picture I showed you, ok where am I going with this? Here's the plan, and I was very specific in my reasoning. I want to make 7 questions, with a point-value system set up. How do I value the answers? Here's how: I made the categories off of possible job opportunities in the maclab. Ok, nice. I came up with a funny set of questions for students to answer so they can see what they place as. Now drawing crazy lines everywhere wasn't suitable. I turned to colors, and very different ones at that, showing up nice on the white background. I wanted to place 2 values by dragging them to their respective answer. If you glance at the picture below, you can easily tell which questions have the right allotment of points.
Did this help? Would use this type of sorting? What else can you sort with this? Tell me in the comments below! Just kidding I turned them off! Uh, I guess those questions were rhetorical then... Have a good day!

Go to Template
Hit Customize
Let's go to the advanced tab
And add CSS (at the very bottom)
Paste the code (#1)
And Apply. Go back to the template
And edit HTML this time
Inbetween <head> and </head> paste the jQuery code (#2)
Search for </body> (command F)
And paste code (#3) ABOVE the </body>
Save template, and now you have a Back To Top in the bottom right corner!
Well, not just that. Buttons in your buttons...

Lets make a new post
And under compose on the dummy page
Create what you want to hide. (view or preview it to make sure it looks right)
On the real page, have the button already set up (under post HTML edit) with spoiler1 instead of spoiler (add up numbers the more you get)
I have it at 4 because the real page I work on has 3 others.
Make sure to name your button.
Replace the hidden content at your real page.
That's it, and always remember your naming convention! Be sure to replace all 4 "spoiler" with "spoilerX" ('X' as in the next consecutive number to keep things nice and tidy)
