Technical Help and another plug
Can someone translate this into English for me so that I can bold my blog categories.
Also, cool thing about using Bloglines to manage your blogroll is you can have categories. I have some down on the right there. I’ve added a Blogs I’m Watching category for those I’m reading that are new.
And if you want to see how it works for me, go here.

S.U. The CSS information will either be found in each page or a separate file. You can figure out which you have by looking in the directory for a file that has css as an extension. Something like styles.css. If the CSS is in your page, which in the case of a Blog it probably will be your looking for stuff between style tags like this:
<style type="text/css">
a:link {color:darkblue;text-decoration:underline}
a:visited {color:blue;text-decoration:underline}
a:hover {color:red;text-decoration:underline}
a:active {color:red;text-decoration:underline}
.spnMessageText a:link {color:darkblue;text-decoration:underline}
.spnMessageText a:visited {color:blue;text-decoration:underline}
.spnMessageText a:hover {color:red;text-decoration:underline}
.spnMessageText a:active {color:red;text-decoration:underline}
.spnSearchHighlight {background-color:yellow}
input.radio {background:navyblue;color:#000000}
</style>
Somewhere inside the styles sheets (inline or external) you should see something like
.Catagories {font-weight: bold;}.
Your results may very because I am not sure exactly how your CSS is set up. You can post or email the CSS to me and I can fix it up for you.

Oops you probably wont see .Categories {font-weight: bold;} because it isn’t set that way yet. However you should see something that notes that it holds the styles for the category heading. You should be able to add or edit the font-weight: bold; there.

Thanks buck. Glad to see you’re still around!

I think I struck out on this one because I am not familiar with MT. If there are any MT’ers out there this issue is still unresolved and I am sure S.U. would appreciate the help. Sorry S.U.

Your style sheet information is in another file. It’s located at:
https://saysuncle.com/styles-site.css
If you have the ability to change that file, here’s all you need to do:
add the following anywhere (perhaps at the very bottom — just don’t add it inside the bracket of another definition):
.blogrollfolder { font-weight: bold; }
Just that one line exactly as shown. That’s all you need to add and your folders should be bold.

For MT, click on the Templates button on the left. Then click on the Stylesheet link.

No help from me, of course. I don’t even know what a “feed” is that I’m supposed to be ashamed that I don’t have!!! LOL

Thanks pete and les. that got it.
Indy, a feed allows others to read many blogs at once. Click that “go here” link above and it’ll show you.
