How To Receive Email Newsletters in Primary Tab of GMail Inbox

How To Receive Email Newsletters in Primary Tab of GMail Inbox

GMail Tabs is a filtering system that allows GMail users to sort their mail into categories like Primary, Social, Promotions, Updates and Forums. If you've enabled it, you might have noticed that email newsletters you subscribe to, typically arrive in the "Promotions" tab by default instead of the "Primary"inbox.





As a result of this, you're likely to miss some important newsletters if you don't always check the "Promotions" tab for new emails.



If you've subscribed to an email list and won't want to miss the newsletters, you can adjust the Gmail Tabs settings to deliver an email newsletter to the primary tab in 2 easy steps.



STEP 1



==> Go to the "Promotions" tab, find the email you want to move to the "Primary" tab, right-click on it (without opening the email) and click : "Move to tab > Primary"













STEP 2



==> Click Yes when offered the option to “always deliver sender@domain.com” to Primary.













That's all.



Repeat as needed for other favourite email newsletters that deliver to Gmail Tab’s Promotions tab by default.

How I BackUp FireFox Bookmarks and Transfer To Another Computer

How I BackUp FireFox Bookmarks and Transfer To Another Computer

Mozilla Firefox allows you to store Web pages you visit often as bookmarks. Firefox automatically creates backups of your bookmarks and saves the last ten backups for safekeeping. Nevertheless, you can generate your own bookmark backup file manually and do anything you like with it.





Earlier today, I was able to save Firefox bookmarks on my laptop and restore the bookmarks on my new laptop. So, this makes it very easy for me to access the bookmarks on my old PC on the new PC. So, in this post, I've decided to share with you, how I was able to do that.



How To Get Started



==> Launch the Firefox browser on your PC

==> Click the Bookmarks icon




firefox bookmarks icon





==> Scroll down and click "Show All Bookmarks" to open the Library window







==> In the Library window, click the "Import and Backup" button

==> Click "Export Bookmarks to HTML..."




export firefox bookmarks to html









==> Choose a location to save the file, which is named "bookmarks" by default. The desktop is usually a good spot, but any place that is easy to remember will work.



==> Save the file and close the Library window.




How To Transfer Firefox Bookmarks To Another Computer




You can use a bookmark backup file from one computer and restore it on another computer.



So, place the bookmark backup file created earlier on your transfer media (e.g. a Flash drive) and copy it to the desktop (or any location) of the other computer.



Next is to go to Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks  and click the "Import and Backup" button



Then, click "Import Bookmarks to HTML...."



After importing the backup file you created earlier, your bookmarks from that file will be restored. Close the Library window.



That's all.



NB:



Restoring bookmarks from a backup will overwrite your current set of bookmarks with the ones in the backup file.



If you use the "BackUp" option, it will create a JSON file which might not be detectable by the other PC. So, use the "Export bookmarks to html..." option as recommended in this post.

How To Make Your eBook Appear On Your Free-ebooks.net Profile

How To Make Your eBook Appear On Your Free-ebooks.net Profile

Few months back, I stumbled on my Free Blogger Guide on free-ebooks.net while downloading some free ebooks from the site. I clicked on the Author link only to discover that it was not pointing to my free-ebooks.net profile.



That same day, I submitted a ticket, requesting for the ebook to be moved to my profile. Few hours later, I received a reply that such will only be possible if I can verify ownership of the ebook.





 





In the ebook, ogbongeblog.com and jideogunsanya.com were listed as my sites.



To verify ownership of the ebook, I was required to send a mail to the support desk, using an email address from either of those two sites.



I sent the mail as required and within 24 hours, the ebook was moved to my profile and I confirmed it via the "desk" tab on my free-ebooks.net dashboard.



Now that it's been listed on my profile, I can now earn money from Google ads that display on the ebook's page at free-ebooks.net.



More so, visitors to the page will be able to connect with me via my social media links and as well, visit my site if they wish to.

How To Place Ad Banner Under Header of Blogger Mobile View

How To Place Ad Banner Under Header of Blogger Mobile View

In this tutorial, I will explain how to place 300x250 ad banner under header of Blogger mobile view. The banner can be Google adsense ad, an affiliate program banner or a personal advert banner to promote your products and services. So, I expect you have saved the code for the banner somewhere.



You can increase your Adsense earnings by placing a 300x250 ad banner under your blog header section as explained in this post.









To get started, sign in to your Blogger account via www.blogger.com

==>  Go to your blog dashboard,click on "Template".

==> Click the settings icon under "Mobile", Select "Yes.............", choose "Custom" and Save.

==> Go back to "Template" > "Edit HTML"



==>Use CTRL F to find id='main' in the HTML



==> Edit showaddelement to yes and add maxwidgets='3' so it becomes similar to the code below:



<b:section class='main' id='main' maxwidgets='3' showaddelement='yes'>



==> Click "Save Template".



==> Go to "Layout' and you should now be able to add a gadget above the post area as seen in screenshot below.









==> Click the "add a gadget", select "HTML/Javascript"



==> Copy and paste your ad code in it and save.



==> Click the "edit" link next to the gadget



==> Click in the address bar of the gadget window and scroll to the end of the address as seen in the screenshot below:









Take note of the gadget id and close the window. In the screenshot above, the id is HTML1



==> Go to "Template" > "Edit HTML"



==> Use CTRL F to find the gadget id in your template

==> Add mobile='yes' to it so it becomes similar to the code below



<b:widget id='HTML1' locked='false' mobile='yes' title='' type='HTML'>



==> Click "Save Template"



==> Use CTRL F to find ]]></b:skin>



==> Paste the code below, directly above the ]]></b:skin>



#HTML1{

display : none;

}



@media all and (max-width: 768px)  {



#HTML1{

display : block;

}



}



Replace the gadget id with yours.

Click 'Save Template"



View your blog on mobile phone and you should see the banner displayed under the header.



I hope this works for you.



NB: If you set it to mobile='yes', it will be giving you errors while saving arrangements in the layout section.
