Homework!
Thanks for coming to the first session today. Just a reminder of what to do before the next session, on Thursday 29th January.
- Wait for your confirmation email to come, with your password and a reminder of your blog address
- Write down your password so you don’t forget it!
- Click on the link in the email to your blog. It should look a bit like this:
- Find the ‘log in’ link towards the bottom right and log in, using the username you entered right at the start of the setup process (probably your initial and surname) and your password.
- If you have any problems with any of the above, email me or pop up to room 204 and I can look at it with you.
Next week… making your blog look beautiful and writing your first post…

I’ve done that, and I’ve tried changing the design too. Is it possible to change the photograph on any of the designs? I’d like to put one of Madrid up there!
Nice work changing the theme! To change the picture, you need to pick a theme that has a customisable header – you’ll know if it does as, just under the main menu in the ‘design’ / theme page (just above where it displays your choice of theme), it will have a ‘widgets’ link, then it may also have a link saying ‘theme options’ and/or ‘custom image header’. If it has this last link, you can add your own picture – have a play, and i can help you on Thursday if you haven’t been able to do it by then.
