Adding a Guestbook...
Creating A Guestbook
The thing about the guestbook is, it's not a feature of MSN Spaces, it's a sly use of the blog and list features.
Basically, do the following:
-
1. Create a blog entry called: Guestbook
-
2. In that entry, put a message of your own creation asking people to leave a message.
-
3. Publish the blog entry
-
4. Preview your space
-
5. Click on 'Permalink' at the bottom of the Guestbook blog entry.
-
6. Copy the link for later use.
-
7. Create a new custom list called: Guestbook
-
8. Add one entry to the list called: Sign or Else.. (or something similar to that).
-
9. Set the link for that entry to be the permalink of your blog entry called guestbook that you copied earlier.
-
10. Customise your space and place the list called Guestbook wherever you want.
To start with your Guestbook blog entry will be on your front page, but as you add blog entries it'll become hidden and all you're left with is a list that links directly to it. Voila!
