Transferring Blogspot blogs

I often see this issue in GPF-Blogger:How do I?. Transferring Blogspot Blogs from one mail ID to another.

Note: The Old UI is gone long ago and we have only New UI.

Make sure that both Mail accounts are associated with https://www.blogger.com/
  • Use Mozilla browser(say). Login to blogger account from which the blogspot blogs should be transferred.
  • Go to :-
    • Settings => Permissions => Add Authors => Give the m@il Id of the account to which the blogspot blog should be transferred => Invite [Old UI]
    • Settings => Basic(if necessary) => +Add Authors => Give the m@il Id of the account to which the blogspot blog should be transferred => Invite authors [New UI]
  • Now, use another browser(say Chrome) and login to the mail of the blogger account whom you invited in the previous step and accept the author invitation. This is the account to which the blogspot blog should be transferred.
  •  Now Go to the account at Mozilla
  • Go to :-
    • Settings => Permissions => Click grant admin priviliges near the author account that you just added => Grant admin priviliges.[Old UI]
    • Settings => Basic(if necessary) => Click Author button near the author account that you just added => Admin[New UI]
  • Now :-
    • Click Remove button near the mail account from which the blogspot blog should be transferred and then confirm it by clicking Remove Blog Author. [Old UI
    • Click the X button near the mail account from which the blogspot blog should be transferred. [New UI
  • You are done.

Blogger Tweak - Open external links in new tab automatically

So, once upon a time, a really long while ago, I tried to customise and recreate a Blogger template which is not available anymore, but there's one thing I remember about it. I had a jQuery code written to make all the external links open in new tab. I also thought, it's about time I revive that idea and write a more intact code and here we go.  So, there are two things to do.  Add Javascript code that detects external links and opens them in new tab.

Blogger custom domain confusions - Check before you buy

The problem was that the URL was not available for use in blogger.  Here on, before spending money on buying a domain, please ensure blogger allows it.

Unfortunately reason is un-disclosed by Blogger themselves.  So how do we know if a domain is available at Blogger or not? Earlier, there used to be no way we could do this as Blogger would throw a more generic error like below, Now, we get a more customised error for this particular case alone like below, So, here on, before spending money on buying a domain, please try publishing your blog in the domain name you are plannin
