I do not only have a personal blog. I also have one for the small trimonthly paper I'm an editor of. And on the blog of this magazine I have a page containing a monthly text. Now it's high time to create the 2021 page and archive the old one.
I ran into one of Bloggers peculiarities here.
As I have to put the texts in chronological order for the archives, as opposed to the "newest on top" format in the actual page, I always have to do a lot of copy-pasting. And I always have to go to the HTML to sort out some code after I'm done. Look what I found.
This is the archived page back from 2019 - when we still had old Blogger:
This is what the 2020 page looked like - one wall of text and code:
But - some say - use the Format HTML button. OK: It helps a bit, but it's not reliable. Look inside the red ring - the March text has not been sorted out.
... and I copy-pasted some code from 2019 archives to the 2020 ones. Nov look: Nice formatting in the top red ring where I pasted the codes from 2019, and not so nice in the lower ring, where I pasted some 2020 codes.
It is not so tough when it is text only. But in some of the pages, I have photos as well, and finding the code for one picture in a wall of text and code is now a real pain in the lower part of my back, where before New Blogger it was tedious, but totally doable.
End of rant. Blogger, please fix this ... and yes, I have given feedback on this.
Dear readers and co-bloggers, now commenting is again possible on almost all blogs.
We're still waiting for the blogrolls to update, so if you think I'm slow in commenting this might be why.
While waiting for an update on this, know that I'm still reading and enjoying your blogs, albeit a bit later than any of us would like.




Sigh.
SvarSletJust when we thought that all of new blogger's peculiarities had emerged - and that some of them have been fixed.
I still suspect to find even more buggers. BUt they do repair/improve things. We just have to tell them what needs repairing.
SletI noticed this too. I do very little in the HTML of my blog, but whenever I try to do something now, I feel like I'm looking for a needle in a haystack. I hope they revert back to the way it used to be too.
SvarSletThis is an apt description of how I feel too.
SletI hope so too, we have to report it every time we find something less than good!
Please keep reporting it. When i put in blog hop code, it can take a long time to find the right break into which it goes.
