[REBLOG] How to get a profile – with a pretty link in your menu and everything.

This is what you'll get:

 

 

Yes, I don’t remember much about html. I’ve been playing around with web pages 5 years ago, so figuring it out took me a while. But things are slowly coming back. I know nobody will read it without pretty pictures, so I’ll provide them, damn it. See how much I love you? (not really, I just don’t want to keep on following strangers, so do me a hugest favour and organize a profile!).

 

*WARNING: I’m not certain how it’ll work out on other themes. Details may vary.

 

1. Step one – create a post that will act as your profile.

 

Just a normal text post. You done? Good. Publish it.

 

2. Step two– time to add some html code.

 

Go to your settings.

 

Open a 'blog’ tab.

 

 

 

Scroll down to:

 

 

 

 Click on:

 

 

Now, don’t be afraid. Find this bit. (just ctrl+f -> type ‘menu’; it'll take you to the right place)

 

 

 

 

Now, this is the code you’ll need:

 

 

                   <h3 class="menu-entry">
                    <a class="set-bradius3" href="link to your profile page">My profile (or whatever you want the actual words to be)</a>

 

 

So you need a link to your earlier profile post. Find it. Go to your blog page, open this particular post in a new window and copy url.

 

You end up with something like this:

 

<h3 class="menu-entry">
                    <a class="set-bradius3" href="http://anhec.booklikes.com/post/216931/my-profile">My profile</a>

 

Now, take that whole piece of code and put it there:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Don’t forget to save:

 

 

 

Now your page should look like this:

 

 

Once you click the button it’ll take you to that ‘profile’ post.

 

 

 

 

 

There. Now you get a pretty, pretty button consistent with your page and I don't get a feeling like I'm following random people (or being stalked by random people... )
