Blogger help please

Post by agi »

I have re-started my old blog. Unfortunately, I find it a bit difficult to use it, formatting and such. E.g. I set the language to English still it gives me some of the labels in Hungarian. Also, when I want to click "follow" on another blog, I can only do that with my google account, but not my Blogger one. Also, I click not publishing my e-mail address and it still does.

Does anyone use Blogger? Can you help me? Or point me to some help site (there is no Help button)?
I feel so frustrated that I am considering creating a new blog somewhere else.

I use Blogger, too, and yes, although I have it set to english, it always goes to spanish. That's something we have to put with, because of the country we live in and the way the internet provider is set up. You will get used to it!
Remember, when you make changes, you must always click on submit, or accept, at the bottom of the screen, otherwise it won't do anything.
Blogger does have a help forum and a FAQ page. If you scroll down to the very bottom of your screen, when you're on your blog's "dashboard", you will see something regarding that.
sometimes blogger has hiccups, and the follow button won't work, but don't give up. You do need to be logged in, though, and yes, sometimes you need to log in again sometimes (the hiccups I mentioned!)
I'm going onto my blog at the moment, and will try to help you out as much as I can, I'm not very techy!

Thank you so much, I managed to do some adjusting... I think it doesn't look too bad now.
I only need to fill it with information :)

Agi, I was looking at your blog and I can't see where I can click to be a follower? I'm only just about getting to grips with blogger myself, so don't let me confuse you, but I can usually see it easily on a blog.

Right at the top, it says in small letters, follow. Click that and it lets you do it.

Thanks Midge. :hug: My problem was that I wasn't signed in. :oops: Once I was signed in the 'follow' appeared. :lol:

Now I can follow your blog Agi.

Having followers is fun Agi!
At least you don't feel as if you're talking to yourself. Well, that's how I feel, lol :lol:

I shall be able to check your blog regularly now. :)
