Innovative Concepts Behind The Dynamic Templates

Now that the novel dynamic templates convey been available for several weeks, too people are truly using them on their favourite blogs, or too then folks are disappointed that they can't role them.

I'm trying to install the dynamic template on my blog, too I'm seeing

Sorry, dynamic views aren't available for this blog.

Why me? What did I create wrong??

And these people but convey no thought how the novel templates locomote - too why they don't e'er work.

Previous templates, whether Classic, Layout, or Designer types, served the formatted content of your blog, equally posts applied to the template, page past times page, from the Blogger servers. Since the weblog content is served page past times page, from Blogger, auto pagination is required to protect the Blogger servers from overload past times single, large blogs, which generate irregular too large amounts of network too server load.

Blogger Dynamic Templates are a rattling innovative approach to spider web content, where the dynamic templates role the customer computers equally local spider web servers. Check out my exam blog, too picket what happens. What you lot come across is a few seconds of the orangish gears turning, piece your browser downloads the dynamic template code. This code is reused, when you lot sentiment whatever Blogger weblog that uses a dynamic template.

Once the dynamic template code has been downloaded, your reckoner but retrieves the raw text of the newsfeed from the weblog existence displayed. Newsfeed text is far lighter than formatted weblog posts, equally served past times Blogger from Classic, Layout, or Designer template blogs. Also, the newsfeed text is downloaded on a page past times page basis. The overall number is far less charge on the Blogger servers too the Blogger / Google network - too eliminates the demand for auto pagination.

Also, dynamic templates, which render less options, are to a greater extent than stable - too require less back upwardly resources, which is necessitated past times weblog owners who are to a greater extent than concerned alongside accessories too style, rather than content. Use of third political party accessories, too extensive tweaking of the weblog layout, are 2 major causes of instability of Blogger blogs, using a dynamic template.

For all of its simplicity, reduced back upwardly resources, too the reduced charge on the Blogger network too servers - too yes, reduced charge on your network also - the dynamic templates convey serious limitations.

1. The careful formatting of your posts - including fancy, relevant, fonts too other features - isn't available. Newsfeed text, which you lot tin come across inwards a re-create of this blog, for instance, contains rattling few formatting options.
2. The dynamic templates exclusively locomote for blogs alongside a total feed. Blogs alongside a disabled weblog feed - or a partial weblog feed - can't role them.
3. Since the dynamic templates require the weblog feed, they can't live on used on mortal blogs.

So, the new, dynamic templates aren't for everybody - or fifty-fifty for everybody who are willing to overlook the currently known blueprint deficiencies. For world blogs which don't require extensive formatting too particular retrieval options, though, they offering definite possibilities.

Most blogs, when new, convey the feed activated past times default. Oddly enough, roughly blogs - fifty-fifty published publicly - produce non seat out a newsfeed.

Some weblog owners, wondering why their blogs are non beingness indexed past times the search engines, are perplexed.

Why isn't my weblog publishing a feed?

If yous desire total visibility, activate the weblog newsfeeds.

You activate the diverse newsfeeds, for the blog, from the dashboard Settings - Other - Site Feed wizard.

Routinely, you'll convey 1 setting - "Allow Blog Feeds" - as well as this setting volition send upon all feed options equally. If yous guide "Custom", yous tin destination enable or disable whatever of the three feed options, separately.

• Blog Posts Feed
• Blog Comments Feed
• Per-Post Comment Feeds

Each setting volition convey three possible selections - Full, Until Jump Break, Short, None.

(Note): If yous enable a feed, it is available to anybody alongside a feed reader, either a feed reader that they personally use, or 1 built inward to a blog. There is no alternative to trammel feed access - feeds are available, equally, to all interested parties. This is why feeds are non published past times express access (private) blogs.

If yous fearfulness that unknown parties powerfulness pocket content from your blog past times using your feed, don't seat out a Full feed, seat out a Short feed. This volition involve anybody wishing to read a consummate post service to access your blog, rather than reading it inward their newsreader.

In close cases, though, a "Full" setting, for all feeds, is best.

Deleted Posts, Too The Spider Web Log Feed

Occasionally, a bewildered weblog possessor volition write into Blogger Help Forum: How Do I?, in addition to ask

How produce I completely take a post? I deleted a post - but my readers yet could read it, inward Google Reader!

Some owners are non clear virtually the nature of post deletion, in addition to the weblog feed.

One of the solutions for recovering a deleted post is to remember it from Google Reader. Even if yous accept non subscribed to the weblog feed, yous can, at whatever time, subscribe, in addition to remember the text content of whatever previously published post. This solution plant because in i lawsuit published, a post volition stay inward the weblog feed for eternity.

Until the post is published, it's inward Draft status. As shortly equally the post is published, the published re-create goes into the weblog feed. If yous right away revert the post to draft status, the post disappears from the weblog primary page (subject to clearing browser cache) - but in i lawsuit published, the post remains cached inward the feed.

As long equally the weblog exists, in addition to the weblog feed exists (the weblog remains public, in addition to the feed is enabled), all previously published posts volition stay cached inward the weblog feed. It may hold upwards possible to reset the weblog feed - though both of these solutions should hold upwards examined carefully - for how your existing readers powerfulness hold upwards affected.

• Make a somebody blog, fifty-fifty momentarily. Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 somebody weblog does non pose out a feed.
• Turn off the feed, explicitly, momentarily.

Depending upon local caches of feed content, the weblog feed may, or may not, hold upwards reset for everybody, alongside either procedure.

This is both good, in addition to bad - but it is only something that yous can't change, easily.
