    Create a guest book

    See which of the following methods suits you best for Creating Your Own Guest-book.

    Please read the Permalink Tutorial in the Getting Started tutorial list as it will help you in the Guestbook Creation Below.

     

    Create a guestbook...

    The thing about the guestbook is, it's not a feature of MSN Spaces, it's a cunning use of the blog and list features.

    Basically, do the following:

    • Create a blog entry called: Guestbook
    • In that entry, put a message of your own creation asking people to leave a message.
    • Publish the blog entry
    • Preview your space
    • Click on 'Permalink' at the bottom of the Guestbook blog entry.
    • Copy the link for later use.
    • Create a new custom list called: Guestbook
    • Add one entry to the list called: Leave a message (or something similar to that).
    • Set the link for that entry to be the permalink of your blog entry called guestbook that you copied earlier.
    • Customize 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. Bob's your uncle!
