Blogger will send all the comments that it thinks spam into the spam inbox automatically. This is a great addition to Blogger. I believe we can now disable word verification while submitting comments. Some people find it annoying and because of this you may be receiving fewer comments than you actually deserve. I have disabled word activation. Lets see how effective this is going to be.

Below each article, there is a feed subscribe link like shown in the image below: So how do you remove that? I figured out 3 ways to do that. You can either remove the template tags or use CSS to hide the portion of the code. You can also use all 3 methods if you want. Method 1 - Removing the template code: Go to Layout > Edit HTML. Click on Expand Widget Templates box. Search for class='post-feeds' and class='blog-feeds'. You can use Find/Search feature of your browser or press Ctrl + F to do that. Once you have located the codes, which looks like this in my template: <div class='blog-feeds'> <b:include data='feedLinks' name='feedLinksBody'/> </div> and <div class="post-feeds"> <b:loop values="data:posts" var="post"> <b:if cond="data:post.allowComments"> <b:if cond="data:post.feedLinks"> <b:include data="post.f...

As of this writing, all new browsers (especially IEs) still do not support transparent background colour. In IE, I have noticed that they completely omit the background colour.

The Retweet button allows your visitors to retweet the contents of your blog on their twitter account. Here are the simple steps to add this button on your every Blogger post: Login to your Blogger account and go to Dashboard.   Go to Layout > Edit HTML Click on Expand Widget Templates   Search for "<b:loop values='data:posts' var='post'>" within the template code by pressing Ctrl + F.   Paste the following code after " <b:loop values='data:posts' var='post'>" and just above "<b:include data='post' name='post'/>": <div style='float:right; margin-left: 10px;'> <script type='text/javascript'> tweetmeme_url = '<data:post.url/>' </script> <script src='http://tweetmeme.com/i/scripts/button.js' type='text/javascript'/> </div> Save your template and you are done!
