Editing Weblog Templates
The web pages that comprise your weblogs are generated from a set of
templates. Depending on how you configure your weblog, you will have
three to six templates, which include…
-
Front Page – Specifies the layout for the front page of the
weblog.
-
Archive – Specifies the layout for the archive pages of the
weblog. For each archive a page will be generated
-
Category – Specifies the layout for the category pages of the
weblog. A page will be generated for each category.
-
Archive Index – Specifies the layout for the "Archive Index"
page of the weblog. This page is optional and will typically include
links to the archives and categories.
-
Entry Pages – Specifies the layout for "Entry Pages."
Entry pages are individual pages which contain a single entry.
-
Feed – Specifies the layout for the weblog’s syndication feed.
The feed is optional and can be any flavor of RSS, Atom, or anything
else that you like. The default feed template is RSS 2.0
To edit a template, simply double click it in the My Sites
hierarchy. Alternatively, you can right click it and select Edit
Template... from the context menu. The Template editor opens with
the template. After making changes to the template, save it by clicking
the save button on the editor’s toolbar.
When you save a template, the pages for that template will be
regenerated the next time you publish the weblog.
