Working on using blogroll on category pages. Here is the info on creating and using radio blogrolls When the "None" template is selected in the category setup page the homepage template is used and the blog roll is there. But I can't figure how to implement the blogroll on other pages. this is the code to replace the navigator links macro-- <%radio.macros.blogroll ("http://radio.weblogs.com/0103279/gems/blogroll.opml")%> My Links Local home Public Home Education Macintosh/Apple My Interests Ohio Edublogging Radio notes Reading/Study SchoolNet Presentation To Do Tools/Software Weblog Colaborators Weblogs Writing for the Web Help Radio discussion Skip's Radio/Manila Guide Manila Newbies Other Sites Ohio Edublogging Edublog Manual ohiORC Staff Discussion Dodson-Brown Associates Skip's Daily Notes Test Category Actually this gives a box with a light blue background with the blogroll in it.

Posting to Radio notes. I am having trouble figuring out what iws happening with the blogroll macro on category pages. I think I have to make a new post to a category to make blogroll changes take effect. But thatt hasn't happened in the Education category. 6:57:31 PM

Now I see the problem. I have to make an entry to the home page to get the Public Homepage to post the changes I made to the blogroll. Just saving the blogroll and then going to the public home page didn't do it. The changes in the blogroll don't upstream to the home page unless a new entry is made to the weblog. 6:14:08 PM

I am having trouble getting The Blogroll to work for me. It sems to be posting to the local pages but sometimes it doesn't post to the public page. I have changed it three times. The first time it posted. the last couple of times it hasn't. 6:08:44 PM
