Top 3 things every new blogspot blogger must know

1 comment
A blogspot blogger must know this especially if they are new to this blogging platform.

1. My friend asked me: how do you escape html tags on your blogpost?

on blogspot editor if you write bold text and preview it the output is: bold text

how to do this without executing the html tags?

Escape it!

On blogspot editor write < for < and > for >

or you could try to google "html special characters" or some online tools to escape a huge amount of html tags (less effort).

Try this tool Blogger paste


2. How to add a jumpbreak or "read more" link on every blogpost?

a very simple and short solution is to add
after the word that you want to cut.

You must always add a jumpbreak to optimize page loading speed.

3. How to change blogpost title?

On your dashboard click design>edit HTML

After this code:

<b:include data='blog' name='all-head-content'/>

Insert this:


<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == "index"'>
<title><data:blog.title/></title>
<b:else/>
<title><data:blog.pageName/></title>
</b:if> 


changing the blogpost title as your 
 <title>  is much better than your blog name as a blogpost title.
