<script type="text/javascript">
function getYpipePP(feed) {
document.write('<ul style="list-style:none; ">');
var i;
for (i = 0; i < feed.count ; i++)
{
var href = "'" + feed.value.items[i].link + "'";
var pTitle = feed.value.items[i].title;
var pComment = + feed.value.items[i].commentcount;
var pList = '<li style="clear:both; padding:10px 0px 30px 0px!important; border-bottom: 1px dashed #dedede; line-height:2em; "> <div class="commentbubble">' +pComment + "  </div>" + "<a href="+ href + '" target="_blank">' + pTitle ;
document.write(pList);
//to remove comment count delete this line
document.write('</a></li>');
}
document.write('</ul>');
}
</script>
<script src="http://pipes.yahoo.com/pipes/pipe.run?
YourBlogUrl=http://www.mybloggertricks.com
&ShowHowMany=6
&_id=390e906036f48772b2ed4b5d837af4cd
&_callback=getYpipePP
&_render=json"
type="text/javascript"></script>
Make these small changes:
- Replace with your Blog URL http://www.mybloggertricks.com
- Replace this 6 with how many post titles you wish to display in the list.
- To change the background color of the comment bubbles, Simply replace the yellow highlighted hexadecimal color codes ( #292D30 ) with your custom color.
- To change the Text color of the Comment count Replace #FFF.
- Replace #dedede if you wish to change the border color that appears below each post title. If you don't want to show a border below each list item then simply delete this line: border-bottom: 1px dashed #dedede;
5. Save and you are all done!
Visit your blog and see a beautiful list of Populat Posts with Fancy comment bubbles! :)
