This is not the post you are looking for...

In other words, no fic.
Sorry! The holidays/my stupid, stupid, will not go away illness/cough/whateverthefuck is making me a non-writing hooor.
*sigh*
Soon! Tomorrow, even, if i can get it together.

Anyway - this post is about lj and, more specifically, tags! Yay, i'm finally doing some. I'm gonna eliminate the memory thing altogether, i'm thinking. Wheeeeee! Anyway.

I'm doing tags on stuff, I want to have a little sidebar that has all my tags in. How, how, how do i do that? Is my particular 'style' or 'theme' or whatever not accomodating of those? I can't really tell!
*flails around*
My style, btw, is 'Punquin Elegant'

And if it does *not* supoprt tags, is there one that looks a lot like this one that *does*? Please, people who do their own lj customizing - halp!

Also - lj's 'inbox'. Did not know i had this. Can i turn it *off*? There are over 100 pages of crap in there. I can only delete one page at a time, i'm pretty sure. Taking. Forever.
Halp! Halp!

*luffs you all*

Tornado warnings all over tonight. It's fuckin' *January*. Jayzus.

ETA: Yes, i have a paid account.

ETA2: If anybody out there knows how to make an lj all custom and would *do this for me* i would pay you in some form or another. We'll discuss it, yeah? 'Cause...omg. *sporks lj*

tags in sidebar?

1. Journal -> Customise Journal
2. Choose page set up / bar on right
3. Bottom of the page choose Customize Selected Themes
4. Look on lefthand side of page for list of things you can customise (Display, Style, Text, Components, Links List, Custom CSS)
5. Choose Components
6. Scoll down and click YES for Enable Tags List
7. Save changes

That should work.

Hope you feel better soon babe!

Punquin Elegent does not support tags. Sadly but if it helps people can just type in tabaqui.livejournal.com/tag and that will take them to a listing of tags that you have.

Err, do you mean it sends you a message when someone comments or something? If that's so all you have to do is click on message and then manage message settings and then unclick and save. If it's not that then I'm afraid I have no idea.

I looked around in the customization and I don't see where you can turn on tags. There might be code you can use (most styles have that), but it wouldn't be a simple turn on.

If you have a paid account, I use component and I've always liked that style. Very easy to turn tags on. Also, off the top of my head, I know smooth sailing and flexible squares both support tags. I like the look of the smooth sailing. I use that for my fic journal and my RP character journals so I know it's available for free accounts.

[tabaqui]

Apparently, my 'style' doesn't support it.
Woe!

I'm a paid account. Gah. I *hate* to change styles. I *like* this one -very simple and clean and easy.
*grumps*
Thanks, though.
:)

[tabaqui]

Botheration. I'm gonna have to switch to one that freakin' supports tags!!!
*grumps around and stomps feet*

And...um...what? AH! No. I like my email notification thingys. No, i mean this: http://www.livejournal.com/inbox/

Grrrrrrrrrr.
Thanks, bay-bee.
:)

[tabaqui]

I shall try this!
*bounce*
Thank you, bay-bee.
:)

Doc appointment Wednesday!
*cough cough cough*

[jstabe.livejournal.com]

I know, I'm not big on change either which is why I almost never change from Component. Smooth sailing is pretty simple and I like the look of it.

Here's my writing journal if you want to see Smooth Sailing in action.

No, that's what I meant. In the upper right hand corner it's got manage settings and you can choose what you want to be notified of when it comes into that inbox. This has nothing to do with your comment notification in your actual e-mail.

I probably explained it weird 'cause I don't use it all that often (except to track a thread once and that got out of hand).

I hope this helps somewhat. Sorry about the no tags. :( And sorry you're still suck! That sucks ass. *huggles*

[bendtothesun.livejournal.com]

*waves hand* I use this as well and you can choose whatever you want on the sidebar so it can be as simple as you want.

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

*puts hand on head*

HEAL!!!!!!!

How's that? Any better?

*SHMOOCH*

[twilightofmagic.livejournal.com]

Sorry you're still feeling crap. Are tornadoes usual in your bit of the world?

[tabaqui]

Um, okay...
I looked at that 'manage settings' and it has a little box for 'by email' and 'txt' and 'im'. None of those are checked. The only thing that's checked is when lj makes an announcement and someone comments on my post but those are both under 'by email' - do they actually mean email to the inbox?

If that means the inbox, they are *not* being very clear! I don't want to accidentally turn off my email notifications...to my actual email, i mean....
*stupid lj*

I'll uncheck and see what happens - if you reply to this and i get no notification, i'm gonna kick lj.
:)

I'mma see the doc on Wednesday, so.....we'll see. Thanks!

[tabaqui]

Oooh, thank you!
*looks*

Hrmmmm...Doesn't look like you can have a picture across the top. Oh, how i hate fooling with lj styles!
:)

[tabaqui]

:)
Yeah - it's nice and simple but it doesn't look like you can have a picture across the top...

[jstabe.livejournal.com]

A header? Yeah, you can. I just don't have the code handy.

[tabaqui]

Omg!
I CAN WALK!!!!

:)

[tabaqui]

Doc on Wednesday, we'll see what happens.

And yup - Tornado Alley is where we are. Missouri, to be more precise.

[tabaqui]

You can?
Oooh...
'Cause i really, really like my 'Other Scarecrows' banner thingy up there, don't wanna lose that...

[jstabe.livejournal.com]

All the codes and anything you might need to customize your journal.

[tabaqui]

Ah.
'Components' isn't one of my choices. I may have to switch styles.
Thanks, though.

[lostakasha.livejournal.com]

Ugh, it sucks that your mystery lung crud is lingering. Feel better soon!

I wrestled with the goddamn tags thing for fire_fic until I couldn't see straight and never managed to get them up there! I have a paid account too, and do my own layout, which is Three Column. So i'll be reading all your comments!

My best cheating guess is that you could rig whatever type of layout Snow has to accomodate both your header and the tags list -- it looks kinda like both of our pages. As for futzing with code, baby you are stronger than I am -- cold and all.

[tabaqui]

Ah. So - this only works if you use the 'smooth sailing' style though, right?

I'm thinkin' i'm gonna have to be switching styles.
*whimpers*

Why can't i just pay somebody to do this!!!
...

Maybe i can!
*la*

[jstabe.livejournal.com]

Well, this community does. Who knows, maybe there's one for your current style. I've just never used it.

[tabaqui]

Gaaaaaah. This coughing thing is *so fuckin' old now*!!!
Jayzus.

And yeah, it looks like i'll have to change styles. Snow's lj is pretty...and not cluttery...maybe i could go for that...
*flails*

Blech!
