How to Set Up Tabs and Labels on Blog

Labels
First, go to your "Posts" tab when you go to your [design/posts/settings/etc.] on your personal blogger menu to the left. There you will see what you have posted on your blog.

Next, click on a post or more to mark with a checkmark next to it. Once you've done so, on top of your most recent post you will see a "Tag" icon indicating "New Label" once you clicked on it (Hint: It is next to the "Publish" tab). You can name that label and mark what posts relate to that label as indicated when you click on the list you have created.

Go to the "Layout" tab on your left selections that was explained in step one. From there you can add the gadget called "Labels" (shared by Blogger). You can put this gadget at your own convenience, but make it viewable to your viewer's access.

Tabs
For this one, you follow the first step above, but going to the "Layout" tab. When you've clicked that choice, you add the gadget called "Pages" (shared by Blogger) to either the side of your blog or below the title (preferably under the title.) You can edit what links and URLs you are inputting to your blog.

To add more links (and pick out the most relevant posts on your blog), you can find that "Labels" can benefit at your extent. Once you edit "Pages", you will see a highlighted blue marker saying "add external link." Remember to refer back to your labels and copy the link to where they are located onto that URL and name it and paste it. Remember to delete that "http//:" lettering so that putting pages will actually work and not fail on you (Damn you Google for making it complicated)


I hope this was helpful and any more questions, comment below. I will edit things I missed out.

  1. Hi Jayce, I couldn't get the tabs to work! Are the labels necessary to have the tabs? For example, I want to do exactly what you did with the vocabulary and masterpiece sections, but I have no idea how to do it :(

    1. Hi Lupe, What part on you stuck on? The labels are its own separate thing by the way. Its just easier putting them as one page because people can see them on the top. Make sure to delete the "http" on the external link when you copy and paste the labeled links.
