1. Install the Template

  1. Open Blogger, choose your blog, then go to the Theme menu.
  2. Click the arrow beside Customize, choose Restore, then Upload the template.xml file.
  3. Wait for the "Theme restored" message, then open your blog.
  4. If the main area is blank, open Theme, then Edit HTML, and press Save once. This re-attaches the blog posts widget.

2. Create the Required Pages

Create these Pages (Pages menu, then New page) with the titles below so the menu links work. Paste the HTML from the pages folder in HTML view.

Tip: a Page URL is built from its title the first time it is published. After that you can rename the title without changing the URL.

3. Write Posts

  • The first image inside a post becomes the card thumbnail on the home page and the blog page.
  • The first label becomes the category shown above the title.
  • Use HTML view and the components on the Elements page.

4. English and Indonesian

The template ships in English with a built-in EN / ID switch in the header. The choice is remembered in the visitor's browser.

Text is translated by a dictionary inside the theme script. To translate new text, add an English and Indonesian pair to the I18N dictionary in Edit HTML.

5. Recommended Settings

  • Settings, then Posts: show 9 posts on the main page.
  • Settings, then Language: English.

6. Change Text and Colors

Open Theme, then Edit HTML. The main colors and fonts are in the :root block inside the skin section. The home page text is in the main section of the same file.
