How to use these templates in BETA Blogger

People are asking when these templates (my own, I mean, not the Minima and Rounders clones) will be ported to BETA Blogger.
Right, haven't done that, and I probably never will ... sorry * .

But these old fashioned templates CAN be used in BETA. Easy :-)

You only have to tell BETA to use the old template system:

  1. Dashboard > Template > Edit HTML > choose any template you want

  2. Revert to Classic Template

  3. Copy and Paste your own template in the Edit Window

  4. Save Template Changes



Here you have your good old system ... back again, thank Gods! ...
with the BETA new feature DYNAMIC SERVING! (Now that's an uplift!)

*) I am not very interested in BETA (at the moment).

But if you are using the BETA templates ...

BETA TIP I: When you are going to implement some code yourself (being third party or not) use a widget to add your code:
  1. DASHBOARD > Template > Page Elements > Add a Page Element

  2. Choose: HTML/JavaScript (Add third-party functionality or other code to your blog.)

  3. ADD TO BLOG

  4. A Pop-Up appears where you can add the needed code (in the content window)

  5. (A title can be inserted here as well!)
Be very cautious with the code syntax ... XML is very stringent!!!
