Popup dialogs are currently broken when editing a post on Blogger in Draft. We are working to fix the issue. In the meantime, please create and edit your posts via Blogger's non-experimental interface at www.blogger.com.

permissions IE draft 1492846

Users of Blogger in Draft are currently unable to access the Settings | Permissions tab in IE 6 and 7 browsers. As a work around, users can make changes to their permissions by going to Blogger.com instead of draft.blogger.com.

The WMX integration on draft.blogger.com will be unavailable until 4PM PDT on Wednesday (8/6). Sorry for the inconvenience and thank you for your patience.

Currently on draft.blogger.com the limit for importing a blog is 1M, however, we are working on correcting this issue.

Some Blogger in draft users are not seeing any gadgets listed under the "Featured Gadgets" tab when attempting to add new gadgets to their layouts.

Some users may be seeing star ratings on their blogs without having opted in to this new feature. This is an experimental feature that was accidentally enabled on some users' blogs. We're working to remove star ratings on all blogs currently. In the future, you'll be able to choose to opt-in to this feature; it won't appear automatically.

Update: The Star Ratings feature has been disabled for all blogs. The option will be available soon on Blogger In Draft.

OpenID

Blogger has removed the URL field for unauthenticated comments. Instead, we're rolling out support for OpenID, a technology for "signing" your comments with your own URL. OpenID lets you comment with the URL you want, while preventing others from impersonating you. Blog admins can turn on OpenID now on Blogger in Draft. Learn more.

The Search Box page element is currently not returning any search results.

Update, 10/24: This has been fixed.

Readers with Internet Explorer will see a white background behind polls added with Blogger in draft's Polls page element.

The Polls page element (on Blogger in draft) does not currently work well with non-Roman Unicode characters. Also, you may be unable to save a poll in some languages because the closing date contains non-Roman characters.
