Hiding Navbar from Blog

CSS being the only way then to hide NavBar, now Blogger has introduced a feature to have different Navbar themes/turning it off.

Therefore this article will help you through the latter as it is easy one.

  1. Go to Dashboard > Layouts
  2. Click Edit in the Navbar gadget
  3. Either choose the theme you wish or choose Off to turn Navbar Off.
  4. Save > Save arrangment
Now visit your blog for changes.

So, what is the advantage of having Navbar in a blog?

The navigation bar's Next blog >> link is made in a way that it shows random blog each time you click on the it. This helps others find your blog as well. The next blog you see will also have Navbar. So if you have Navbar, you're blog will be shown as some one else's next blog.


The simplest advantage of having this is to gain anonymous but useful readers to the blog.

Blogger custom domain confusions - Check before you buy

In the Blogger community forum, I happened to help a user who was not able to publish their blogspot address to their custom domain. After doing all the debugging, there was no option left out but to contact Google and finally we have known what the problem is. 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. Why isn't the custom domain available to buy but not available to use on Blogger? That'd be the first question every user would ask or think to ask. Unfortunately reason is un-disclosed by Blogger themselves.  So how do we know if a domain is available at Blogger or not?

Keep an eye in the coming months as these are rolled out. To start, check out Stats, Comments, and Theme You click on Continue and it redirects. After redirect you get the all new UI. However the point to notice is, it lands in the Stats page. Stats section - New UI So, what's new about this UI? Just a couple of re-alignments, I thought. And then I happened to notice the hamburger icon on the top left near Blogger logo. Clicking on it, the menu got hidden and then it occurred to me that there's really more to look into. So I made a resize to mobile width to see this, Responsive UI of Stats section Menu in Mobile view MOBILE FRIENDLY, RES...
