How to Change Language for Blogger Dashboad ?


I have seen many people complaining on Blogger Help Group regarding their blog is not being displayed in English or not in their default Language at the login of www.blogger.com and at Blogger Dashboard. That's because of you are in some different country or your internet connection ISP is located in some different country .

Since the page is in the different Language which is not understood by you, so you are not able to know what exactly you can do to change the Language of the login page or dashboard of blogger.com

Here, I will explain this in simple terms that how can you change the Language for blogger to your desired Language

  • When you are at the Login page of the blogger, you can see the drop down at the top right side of the page. Select the desired Language this drop down and the page will displayed in the selected language
If you are at Dashboard of the blog and the blog is diaplyed in other language which you are not able to unserstand. In this case also you can select the desired Language from the Drop Down at the top right side of the page as shown in the following 2 images.
Note: In both of the above cases, since the page may be in the Language other then English, so there may not be a Label for Language in Englsih as shown above. But Label for Language may be in some other Language also which is not understandable by you. But the location for the drop down will be the same so select desired Language from the Drop Down as shown in the bellow image

How to remove empty spaces on left or right side of your blog? Increase the width of your blog template - Solutions for sidebar folling down


Many blogger template comes with spacing at the left and/or right side of the blog. Which seems to be wasting of so much space of your blog. Also I have seen problems on some blog that side bar gadgets are displayed at down side instead of being at side bar. The solution for this is to increase the total width of your blog as well as increasing the width of sidebar and the main section of your blog.

If you are using standard template then following are very simple and easy steps to increase the width of your blog. For this you need to edit the HTML template of your blog. But don't worry it is very easy perform this.

  • Login to Blogger.com and you are at the Dashboard
  • Now click on Layout link for the blog for which you wanted to change the template
  • Got to Edit HTML and you can see the HTML template for your blog
  • Here first take the backup your blog template (Click here to know how to take a back up of blog template)
  • Now select check box for Expand Widget Template
  • Now from the HTML template code search for defination for #outer-wrapper which can be similar to following
    #outer-wrapper {
    width: 660px;
    margin:0 auto;
    padding:10px;
    text-align:left;
    font: normal normal 100% 'Trebuchet MS',Trebuchet,Verdana,Sans-serif;
    }
OR
#outer-wrapper {
width: 80%
margin:0;
padding:10px;
text-align:$startSide;
font: $bodyfont;
}
  • Here you can see that value of width is specified as 660px; in your case it can be different or may be specified or given in the form of percentage. To reduce the spacing increase the value of the width or to increase the spacing decrese the value of width. (Note this is total width of your blog). Here the value of width is given in the pixels(px), hence it becomes fixed for specific resolution. To fix this globally for all kind of resolution provide the width in the percentage format (e.g. width: 100% or width: 85%)
  • Hence you code can be similar to following (Note: only change / add the value width and not any thing else)
#outer-wrapper {
width: 100%;
margin:0 auto;
padding:10px;
text-align:left;
font: normal normal 100% 'Trebuchet MS',Trebuchet,Verdana,Sans-serif;
}
OR
#outer-wrapper {
width: 100%
margin:0;
padding:10px;
text-align:$startSide;
font: $bodyfont;
}

  • As we have changed the width for outer-wrapper we need to change the width of main-wrapper , sidebar-wrapper and header-wrapper
  • You can look for #main-wrapper and change the width of main-wrapper as we have done for outer-wrapper (Note: Changing main-wrapper width changes the width of the post section. Hence if you have side bar then don't give width for main-wrapper to 100% or in case of pixel based width it should be smaller than outer-wrapper and also total sum of width of main-wrapper and sidebar-wrapper should be always less than width of outer-wrapper)
  • Similarly for changing the width of sidebar-wrapper, look for #sidebar-wrapper and increase or decrease its width to change the width of side bar (Note: Changing sidebar-wrapper width changes the width of the sidebar section. Don't give width for sidebar-wrapper to 100% or in case of pixel based width it should be smaller than outer-wrapper and also total sum of width of main-wrapper and sidebar-wrapper should be always less than width of outer-wrapper)
  • Now the final thing is to search for the #header-wrapper and change the width for it as it was done for others. (Note: This will change the width of header section.)

Blog Doesn't load / aborted at Internet Exlporer - Problem with Follower Widget / Gadget


I have seen lot of people reporting problem at Blogger Help Group regarding their blog does not load or aborted at Internet Explorer and work fine at Firefox or any other browser. This seems to be very serious issue form the blogger. I have observed that this issue is with the blogs which has Follower widget / gadget from blogger or Google friend connect.

I also suggested many blogger to remove it and it will work fine for them. If you really worried about your Internet Explorer visitors then you should remove this Follower widget temporarily until blogger fix this issue.

If you are also facing the same issue and if it works well after removing Follower gadget or widget (Or please move Follower Gadget at the last in the side bar) then please post a comment stating the details or else if you found any other work around then please let me know

If still there is a problem in loading the blog in IE (Internet Explorer). I will suggest you to remove all your HTML / JavaScript widgets / gadgets (like music player, some webcounter / visitor counter, slide show or any other not from blogger) one by one . There may problem with one of them and don't forget to take backup of each widget / gadget's code before removing them. I hope this will make your blog working in IE.

If you remove those gadgets one by one so that you can detect that which gadget is causing the problem and fix the problem in that particular gadget later on


Update: Blogger has accepted this as bug please check over here http://knownissues.blogspot.com/2009/05/some-users-are-seeing-operation-aborted.html
