Blogger Updates

Google adds Meta tag editor to their Blogger platform

 

[Jonas]

I have disabled Anonymous Posting on a blog and when someone tries to comment on any of the post he gets this.



Any solution to it?

 

[Sushubh]

using a modified template?

 

[Jonas]

No, am using the default template.

Tried this workaround, didn't work.

well the error makes no sense. you can trying playing around with settings.

maybe google broke something and they have not realized it. happens a lot with google.

tried the setting: User with Google Accounts?

This Blog addressess this issue: Solution: Blogger’s OpenID ‘Your OpenID credentials could not be verified’ error – Solved!

Didn't work for me though.

I tried changing settings, ended up allowing anonymous comments.

why not restrict it to google accounts only?

 

[Jonas]

There are people in this world, who don't use Google Mail. Crazy, I know.

 

[Sushubh]

there might be people who do not use Gmail. but there are going to be fewer people who do not have a Google account.

Yeah, I overlooked "Google Account".

Just one person is facing this problem, not that I have a huge audience

So, yeah, was trying to make things easier for him/her.
