Google, Site Build It! and Infin It! Oh My!

Site Build It!Well, it's taken me several days to get the new blog figured out for this site and another SBI! site that I have. The blogs are a result of Infin It!, a new module from Site Build It! that allows us to host a blog on a sub-domain of our site.

The blog is actually hosted offsite using another domain I own and is created using Google's Blogger. But Infin It! shows the blog as being a sub-domain of kenbryski.com.

Blogger allows us to modify their templates to create the same look and feel of our SBI! site. Because I have a webmaster's account with a web hosting company I was easily able to set up a new subdomain to host the blog. And it only costs a buck a month.

The problem for me came with editing the templates and setting the correct paths for the blog to be uploaded by FTP and setting the domain mapping in my webmasters account.

It was a bit of trial and error but they both seem to be working fine now. The biggest goof came when I was making a small adjustment to the page footer in the Blogger template and highlighted everything above the part I was pasting into. It deleted everything above the footer.

I never saved the template changes I had originally made, so I had to start all over again. But I am getting better each time I do it.
