Add recent posts widget in new blogger

If you don't like blog archive or just want to display simply the latest posts you can do that with the following simple (or silly) trick.

  • First get your blog's feed URL. This will be usually
    http://YOURBLOGNAME.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default
    Ex: http://4paisa.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default
    In my case I am using Feedburner for my feed, so my default feed URL
    http://feeds.feedburner.com/4paisa
  • Go to Layout tab in your blogger dashboard, click on Add a page element.
  • Select 'Feed' in the list, give your own feed URL here.
  • Thats it. You can place this widget at the location you like.
You can display the latest comments also using the above tip. To do this use your comments URL instead.
It will be like
http://BLOGNAME.blogspot.com/feeds/comments/default?alt=rss

BTW blogger provides separate feed for every label also. It will be like
http://BLOGNAME.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default/-/LABELNAME

Scheduled posts in blogger

Blogger introduced Scheduled posts feature in the draft version. You can login to draft.blogger.com instead of blogger.com to use draft feature. Soon this will be available in the regular blogger version too.

Now you can write a lot of posts and schedule them to be published in the future. For doing this, expand 'Post Options' in compose window, change the date and time to a future date and publish the post. It will be automatically posted at the specified date. This feature is already available in the wordpress.
