I didn't upgrade the 1st time around because I was going to lose my customizations. Since I have a bit more free time now, I decided to recustomize from scratch. So far so good for the new Blogger format. Definitely much more user-friendly and easy to use, yet still allowing user HTML customization(s). With a little bit of testing and twisting here and there, I think we can make most out of it if you know what you're doing.

Although complex reordering will be difficult, I have a quick solution for moving an old post to the front of the queue:<BR/><BR/>- In the 'Posting' -> 'Edit Posts' tab, click the 'Edit' link corresponding to the post. This will open the editor for that post.<BR/>- Copy and paste the content into a text editor<BR/>- Next, create a new post<BR/>- Paste the content into the new post editor and save it.<BR/>- If everything in the new post looks good, you can choose to remove the old post or leave it to preserve your history. The new post should appear at the top of the page.<BR/><BR/>James<BR/><A HREF="http://blog.opensourceopportunities.com" REL="nofollow">Open Source Opportunities</A>James Mortensenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14761411429474089032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-81460977634602843442007-04-05T07:38:00.000-07:002007-04-05T07:38:00.000-07:00So far the new Blogger is a total nightmare, since...So far the new Blogger is a total nightmare, since it won't "accept" any of my new blog templates.

Set yourself up as a second author on your blog, and post from that exclusively from now on. Blogger only bugs the blog owner, not any second authors.<BR/> I made the mistake of switching and hate it. It takes miles longer to wait for a simple change to publish, because it has to go through the whole blog (I want the “publish index only” option back), it is less efficient, and now, I am still signed in when I search Google, etc., as well, so the buggers can spy on me. Oftentimes, Blogger forgets I am logged in, even when I do not log out of it or out of Google, so I have to type in a longer username (my email address) for the new account.<BR/> Load of rubbish, really, Don’t know why they bothered with annoying users. They should have held any changes back till they <I>improved</I> Blogger.https://www.blogger.com/profile/18013696218856088709noreply@blogger.com
