EMERGENCY STEPS
| Kick-starting The Blog |
|---|
| 1. Refresh (F5) or Ctrl-F5
2. Clear cache (delete temporary Internet files) and cookies in Tools-Internet Options. 3. Add a question mark to the end of your blog's internet address in the address box and see if it will show the latest update. (Can also be done with other people's url's in the address window.) 4. Republish (if in classic Blogger) 5. Reboot 6. Log out and log back in again (may change to an untroubled server) 7. Change browser (IE, Firefox, others) ---Not necessary to do all of these at once!--- |
Blogger may make problems for some computers about accepting cookies, especially when you are using the new versions of Internet Explorer or Firefox browsers. Difficulties with accepting scripts may be caused by security systems, antivirus programs, firewalls, and some add-ons. Check all your settings.
You may need to change your browser settings, or to list www.blogger.com and blogger.com as "trusted sites" in your Internet Options-Security so that scripting can occur.

Change Date On Post To Keep It At Top
Or change the post date for any other reason!
"Post Options" is located below and toward the left of the Blogger Editing box. Click it, and you'll notice some boxes that say Post Date and Time appear toward the far right side of the screen.
| OLD (CLASSIC) BLOGGER |
|---|
| To keep a post at the top of the blog, either as an Introduction Or Welcome or Index or whatever you'd like to call it, use the "Post and Comment Options" to change the date to one in the future. At present, Blogger only lets me advance it to Dec. 31 of next year. I'll have to advance the date again next year. And so on. |
If I'm unclear, check the same info with Chuck at The Real Blogger Status
| NEW (BETA) BLOGGER |
|---|
| You can now put a Page Element at the top of your blog that will always stay in place without fooling with dates.
You can always relocate the page element again later by drag and drop. |
