Blogger in Draft Bug Fixes for April 21st

Last week’s release fixed several bugs with blog list and scheduled posts:

Scheduled Posts

• Scheduled FTP publishes now work.
• Posts published via scheduling will trigger BlogSend emails.
• General reliability improvements.
  

Please try these out if you were having trouble with scheduled posts. We’re aiming to take this feature out of draft in the fairly near term, so we’d like to make sure that everything works.

Blog List

• Improved Blog List update reliability.
• Fixed bX codes on Blog*Spot when certain sites are added to a Blog List.
• Removed bolding of blog titles.
• Usability and cosmetic improvements to the Blog List configuration dialog.

Unified Gadget / Page Element Directory

As part of our roll-out of Google Gadget support, we’ve unified the gadgets and page elements directories on Blogger in draft. Just click on the “Layout” tab and then click an “Add Gadget” link to see the new look.

How is it working for you? Does the new presentation, and the new icons, make adding stuff to your blog easier?

Let us know if you find good gadgets, or especially if you make some of your own.
