It looks like the folks over at Blogger are addressing one of the biggest complaints by users : the inability to add static pages.
If you’re unfamiliar with the terminology, this basically means that you can add separate “About Me,” “Blogroll,” and “100 Reasons Why I’m A Catch” pages (they currently allow up to 10 pages).
Granted, this was possible before, but you had to create a blog post and link that blog post in your layout.
The new way is much, much easier. Here’s what you do.
- Log in at Blogger in draft (http://draft.blogger.com)
- From the Dashboard, click the “Edit Posts” link
- Click the “Edit Pages” link
- Click the “New Page” button
- Enter the Title and Body of your new page and Publish
- Select where you would like your pages to appear
- Save and Publish
It’s that simple!
Keep in mind that this feature is still new (which is why it is still only accessible via Blogger in Draft) and therefore likely to change AND be full of bugs. In fact, I wanted to try this out and include screen shots of the entire process and different options, but I ran into a bug. Once officially released, I’m looking forward to providing a full post on this feature.
