PROCEDURE AND GUIDELINES FOR INSTALLATION:
Overview:
This Premium Magazine II Template is a combination of my past two templates, the Arapaap and Structure. It was updated, enhanced and installed some powerful javascript to make it more attractive and useful to the user.
All the areas were all “self-generating fields” after installation except for the scrolling photos which need to be updated when a new feature article was published. This field is still under development and to be upgraded on the next version.
Pre-Set-up Installation Detail:
First, be sure to download PreMag2.rar and check if there are no errors appearing when clicking the file.
• Unzip the file on a separate folder.
• Upload Javascript and CSS File in a credible hosting site. (Javascript File: autoreadmore.js, jd.gallery.js, jd.gallery.css, mootools.v1.11.js, Relatedposts.js, vertical-label.js)
• Now, Log-in to your Blogger Account.
• Go to LAY-OUT, select Edit HTML, and then click “Choose File” button.
• Browse PreMag2.xml from the unzipped folder.
• If found, select it then click “Upload” button.
Now, you’re half-way done on installing this template.
INSTALLATION OF THE FIELDS:
MENUCONTAINER and LABELMENUCONTAINER:

Labelmenucontainer: (e.g. Arts – label)

• Save
Do this for the rest of the fields.
DROP CAP:
Drop Cap is a big letter that found on the first part of a paragraph or a sentence. It is not often use to a blog or even in a website, but with this template I have manage to incorporate this feature.
• Go to SETTING, select “Formatting”.
• Add this codes on the Post Template:
• Save
When you post an article, be sure to embed the first letter between those two (2) codes:
T he quick brown fox�.
FEATURE VIDEO:
This field is optional or it can be replace with other widgets that you want to include. But if you prefer to add this with your own video, then you should be familiar with the codes of embedding videos. There are lots of sites now that offer video embedding. One of them is the famous Youtube. But do you know how to customize the size of your video?
Example:
Since the width of our sidebar is only 320px, make it sure also that your video should not go beyond this dimension or else it might overflow. Those bold texts on the codes are the safest sizes for this field. Take a look on the Live Demo.
LINKS:
• Go to LAY-OUT, select Page Element
• Click “Add Gadget”
• Select “Blog List” or “Link List” from the listed widgets.
• Fill-up
• Save
SIDEBAR TABS:
Domtab offers a clean and multi-handle field in just one column. Tabs performs the task separately by clicking individually and they show different results accordingly.
This field has a similarity with the above field (Links). Fill-up those tabs using the above procedure but use different widgets or even paste your own codes.
