DISQUS

The new template is not all that hard. Here's my first blogger beta template hack - Drop-down labels!

Is the glass half-empty, or what?

Thanks ramani.


An interesting way of putting it anonymous. Perhaps if you were looking through the glass darkly (I suppose ;-).

Nice site... loads of helpful tips and signposts. Agree that CSS Editor would be a bonus, but it's a paid upgrade... one of the joys of blogging is keeping it in the free zone. Also agree that Wordpress could leap into the lead with minimal effort, guess Google has raised the bar a bit with Blogger Beta. One final point of frustration... I could not set up a custom account for wbloggar on Blogger Beta, which is a shame as this is the editing tool of choice for many.

Hi Nabil. Thanks for the comments. I agree about w.bloggar. It is the best all-round blog editor, BUT it won't work with Blogger Beta yet (and I'm not holding my breath).


The author is unreliable with respect to upgrades and seems to be in continual financial trouble. His website is down half the time and he disappears for long periods of time.



But to his credit it is a free product and I really hope he will get around to offering a beta compatible version soon. Then again, the new interface in Blogger Beta isn't bad either.



But if they are going to force us to be xhtml compliant, they could at least offer some basic xhtml shortcuts in the template editor for beginners.
