You can now specify text to appear at the top and/or bottom of every Post on your Blog.

An example can be found on the ZCars Blog.

For text at the top create a Post with the title "Post Start Text" and for the bottom create a Post with the title "Post End Text".

This is a good feature to encourage people who come to your blog directly to a Post (most Search Engine readers) to explore other parts of your blog -- like the homepage (See what's been Posted recently on *** etc) or forums if you have them.

Nope -- just create a post with the title "Post Start Text" and the contents of that Post will be displayed at the Start (above the title) of each Post.

oh... ok, understood.

This means it is like a general header or footer for every post. ^_^

Is this retroactive? Will it show up on past posts?

It will show up on all the posts ever created on that blog and any that will be created in the future. You can also edit or delete it whenever you like.

So, I post it as a non-category blog post?

It does not matter which category (or not) it is in -- although it will have to have an Orble category. It would be a good idea to give it a Display Date way into the past so it does not appear on the Orble homepage or your blog's homepage.

I have just tried it on my domain blog.

Cool, it works!

And it shows according to what you have specified.

I think the more important to know that, it is a header, not another post, so better keep it short. ^_^

Good point Jessica -- short is better.

Can someone put up a step-by-step for doing this? Because I did it and just got a regular post. What catagorey do you put it in and all that?

Aaorn.

Aaron and Adrienne:

For a header: Create a Post with the title "Post Start Text" (capitals and all) and the content of that post will be your header.

For a footer: Create a Post with the title "Post End Text" (capitals and all) and the content of that post will be your footer.

It does not matter what category the posts go in.

Let me know if you still have problems.
