By late July, creators will no longer be able to revert to the legacy Blogger interface.  </span></div> <br /><div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"> <span style="font-family: arial; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">We recommend getting ahead of the transition by opting into the experience today. Be sure to let us know what you think about the new design by tapping the Help icon in the top navigation bar. We can’t wait to see how Blogger creators use the latest updates to share their voice with the world.</span></div> <div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"> <span style="font-family: arial; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></div> <div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i><br /></i></span></div><div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"> <span style="font-family: arial; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>Posted by Fontaine on behalf of the Blogger team</i></span></div> <div> <span style="font-family: arial; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></div> </span></div> <span itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://plus.google.com/116899029375914044550' itemprop='url'/> </span> </noscript> </div> </div> <div class='share'> <span class='twitter-custom social-wrapper' data-href='http://twitter.com/share?text=Official Blogger Blog:A better Blogger experience on the web&url=https://blogger.googleblog.com/2020/05/a-better-blogger-experience-on-web.html'> <img alt='Share on Twitter' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_twitter_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> <span class='fb-custom social-wrapper' data-href='https://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https://blogger.googleblog.com/2020/05/a-better-blogger-experience-on-web.html'> <img alt='Share on Facebook' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_facebook_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> </div> </div> <div class='post' data-id='7345193987064476834' itemscope='' itemtype='http://schema.org/BlogPosting'> <h2 class='title' itemprop='name'> <a href='https://blogger.googleblog.com/2019/01/an-update-on-google-and-blogger.html' itemprop='url' title='An update on Google+ and Blogger'> An update on Google+ and Blogger </a> </h2> <div class='post-header'> <div class='published'> <span class='publishdate' itemprop='datePublished'> January 30, 2019 </span> </div> </div> <div class='post-body'> <div class='post-content' itemprop='articleBody'> <script type='text/template'> <span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Following the announcement of Google+ API deprecation scheduled for March 2019, a number of changes will be made to Blogger’s Google+ integration on 4 February 2019.</span><br /> <span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><strong>Google+ widgets:</strong> Support for the “+1 Button”, “Google+ Followers” and “Google+ Badge” widgets in Layout will no longer be available.

Due to the low usage of this feature, Blogger will no longer support OpenID as a provider or for making comments, and all comments that previously used OpenID will be anonymized. New comments can be posted either from a Google account or labeled as “Anonymous” on blogs that allow it.</li> <li><b>Improved Localization and Blogspot ccTLDS:</b> Your location determines your country services. Historically, these services have been labeled and accessed via country code top level domain names (ccTLD), such as blogspot.com.au for Australia. We’re updating the way we label country services on Blogger - now the choice of country service will no longer be indicated by domain. Instead, blogspot.com will serve you the country service that corresponds to your location, and all existing blogspot ccTLD domains will redirect to blogspot.com.

Custom domains now support encrypted connections with HTTPS, making sure connections maintain integrity and the contents are confidential. For more information on HTTPS, check out the Blogger Help Center article <a href="https://support.google.com/blogger/answer/6284029">here</a>.</li> <li><b>Multilogin:</b> Multiple accounts? No problem! Multilogin allows you to switch between your different Google accounts without signing out. For more information on multilogin, check out the Blogger Help Center article <a href="https://support.google.com/blogger/answer/7635125">here</a>.</li> <li><b>Spanner:</b> We’ve been doing some serious tinkering under the hood of Blogger!

Due to the low usage of this feature, Blogger will no longer support OpenID as a provider or for making comments, and all comments that previously used OpenID will be anonymized. New comments can be posted either from a Google account or labeled as “Anonymous” on blogs that allow it.</li> <li><b>Improved Localization and Blogspot ccTLDS:</b> Your location determines your country services. Historically, these services have been labeled and accessed via country code top level domain names (ccTLD), such as blogspot.com.au for Australia. We’re updating the way we label country services on Blogger - now the choice of country service will no longer be indicated by domain. Instead, blogspot.com will serve you the country service that corresponds to your location, and all existing blogspot ccTLD domains will redirect to blogspot.com. This will help simplify URLs for international audiences.</li> </ul> <br /> <br /> Along with the above updates, the following features will soon be retired from Blogger <i>(over the next few months)</i> due to low usage and to allow the Blogger team to focus on developing new features:<br /> <br /> <ul> <li><b>Third Party Gadgets:</b> You will still be able to add custom HTML or Javascript via the “HTML/Javascript” gadget.</li> <li><b>Next Blog:</b> This is the feature that allows you to visit another blog similar to the current one.

With lambda expressions, simply define a variable name that each item in the set will take, and then refer to the variable name as though it were each item.</div> <div> <br /></div> <div> <span id="docs-internal-guid-ed12ced3-e519-8f5f-374b-c473f32612b4"></span><br /> <div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"> <span id="docs-internal-guid-ed12ced3-e519-8f5f-374b-c473f32612b4"><span style="color: #999999; font-family: "courier new"; font-size: 14.6667px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"></span></span></div> <span id="docs-internal-guid-ed12ced3-e519-8f5f-374b-c473f32612b4"> <div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"> <span style="color: blue; font-family: "courier new"; font-size: 14.6667px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><b:if</span><span style="font-family: "courier new"; font-size: 14.6667px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> </span><span style="color: purple; font-family: "courier new"; font-size: 14.6667px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">cond=</span><span style="color: #38761d; font-family: "courier new"; font-size: 14.6667px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">'</span><span style="color: #38761d; font-family: "courier new"; font-size: 14.6667px; font-weight: 700; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">data:post.labels any (l => l.name == "Flower")</span><span style="color: #38761d; font-family: "courier new"; font-size: 14.6667px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">'</span><span style="font-family: "courier new"; font-size: 14.6667px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">></span></div> <div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"> <span style="font-family: "courier new"; font-size: 14.6667px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">  <img src=’/img/flower.jpg’ /></span></div> <span style="color: blue; font-family: "courier new"; font-size: 14.6667px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><b:if/></span></span></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <span style="color: blue; font-family: "courier new"; font-size: 14.6667px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <span style="color: blue; font-family: "courier new"; font-size: 14.6667px; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><img height="401" src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/VWNK3317-R03RHjg7wFXk5IzVj0CEUMn3FNIZhJaW5bOeP_8II7zSkzJjXhJh8Rw3MnnOEXBw6fIBzpvOvof0zE18gQriX5BPyOt73Z7AwTvK7M8AUOAuXz0ZqS5e8_juz43dmtS" style="border: none; transform: rotate(0rad);" width="602" /></span></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <span id="docs-internal-guid-ed12ced3-e519-b7e9-2b8e-72876f18284c"></span></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <span style="font-family: "courier new"; font-size: 14.6667px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i><span style="color: #999999;">An example of adding a flower icon to posts labelled 'Flower'</span></i></span></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <br /></div> <div> <br /></div> <div> There’s lots more that you can do using lambda expressions, like only showing posts in your feed with a given label or quickly calculating how many posts you have with a given number of comments.
