Anyways, I went ahead and followed this tutorial: Add a Retweet button to your posts on Blogger with Tweetme
After I followed all the steps I kept getting this error on Blogger:
Your template could not be parsed as it is not well-formed. Please make sure all XML elements are closed properly.XML error message: Open quote is expected for attribute “{1}” associated with an element type “type” .
Did some fishing around to fix this and came up with a solution where you don't need to scroll through "Edit layout" and find the coding.
1. Go to "Edit layout" and copy all the HTML in your layout. Make sure expand widgets is checked first.
2. Go to: http://tweetmeme.com/about/plugins/blogger_template
3. Copy and paste your template into "Existing Blogger Template" box just below.
4. Adjust your settings the way you like.
5. Scroll down to "Generate Modified Template".
6. Wallah, you should have it now. All you need to do is copy that whole code and paste into "Edit template" in your Blogger. Now it is "Well-parsed". Hehe
Go Back to Home
Tweetmeme is definitely a must-have plug-in!
