Examples and Implementation

DATA MESSAGES THAT HAS NO PARAMETERS.

<b:message name='messages.by'/>

messages.by origin is <data:message.by/>, This type of message has no parameter, so we can't give any <b:param/>.

A MESSAGE WITH A PARAMETER

<b:message name='messages.byAuthor'>

    <b:param expr:value='data:post.author.name'/>

</b:message>

<b:param/> take data string <data:post.author.name/> which is who posted the post. For who set Blog language to English, the result will be By AuthorName.

CUSTOMIZE MESSAGE THAT HAS PARAMETER

<b:message name='messages.byAuthorLink'>

    <b:param value='foo'/>

    <b:param value='https://example.blogspot.com'/>

</b:message>

This type of message has two parameters, we can customize it like above. The first <b:param/> is the name and the second one is the link of the author. The result will be 'By Foo' with given link.
