Wordpress style comments for blogger blogs !
Thursday, July 17, 2008
Just in case you didn't know - there is a version of our favorite Blogger.com @ draft.blogger.com where the Blogger development team keeps releasing beta features and tests them. You can log in over there and try out the features.Finally the most wanted feature of Blogger has been released for testing. Now you can comment very very easily on TECH TOLA posts too.
No more waiting for annoying pop ups to load for commenting on my blog posts. Blogger in Draft has released the Wordpress style embedded comments for Blogger blogs. Its very easy to enable this for default templates by going to settings in "Blogger in Draft", and for custom templates like mine, just a small little hack is required.
Below is the link for the complete guide to set up this, including the changes you need to make for custom blogger layout templates.
Check out Amanda's tutorial on the Blogger Buster.

I would like to express my gratitude to the blogger team and Amanda.
Also Blogger in Draft has a blog here.
And I am adding a new section for blogger hacks. As I am a web developer myself, I will try to put up some cool hacks which I discover. You can also request hacks in the comments, which I will find out for you and post in here in my free time.
P.S. Thank you Balal, the link has been fixed and the post has been re-written.
