Here's how to do various things you may want to with your new template or diary. Instructions on how to put the html onto your diary is on the individual template pages.
How to change or add a link
Look through the html. When you find something
that looks like this <a href="http://diaryland.com/">Diaryland</a>. ... stop.
The part that reads <a href="http://diaryland.com/"> is basically saying link to
the url http://diaryland.com/ and where it says Diaryland, it's saying that that's what
should link to the url. The final part </a> closes the link tag, so it's only
Diaryland that's linked. If you wanted it to be like this...
Diaryland. ...this is how the html would be written.
<a href="http://diaryland.com/">Diary</a>land. If you need more help, go to
the place that helped teach me HTML... Lissa

How to add a rings/links/cast/reviews (etc) page
- First, go to this page. That's right.. a new entry.
- Now, in the entry box, put all the codes for your rings (if you're doing a rings page), for example %%diaryring_happyendings%% and the rest.
- Now, on all of my templates, I put links to a rings page. The url I link to is rings.html Web browsers are CASE SENSITIVE. In the box that says name of this html page, type the word rings. (just "rings", without the quotes)
- Click OK.
- The same can be repeated for other things, like a links page, a cast page, etc. If you have any doubt what html name to use, check by hovering your mouse over the appropriate link. Look at the bottom left hand corner of your browser (IE only?), and there should be a URL. Something like http://usernamehere.diaryland.com/blah.html. In this case, the thing that should go in the html name box is the word "blah".
