This is amazing! Thanks for finding it. Is there any way that Blogspot users can do this?
Posted by: funke on July 27, 2007 05:18 PMAlso, I was wondering what the code is for your sidebar archives. I like having a pull-down menu for archiving rather than having every category under the sun taking up room in the sidebar...
Posted by: funke on July 27, 2007 05:20 PMFunke, blogspot requires no work, under site feed hit the advanced mode and make sure comment or per post comment feed is set to full.
Then your site will look soemthing like this.
The URL for the post feed is:
http://beta.blogger.com/feeds/blogID#/posts/full
The URL of the comment feed is:
http://beta.blogger.com/feeds/blogID#/comments/full
The URL of the per-post comment feed is:
http://beta.blogger.com/feeds/blogID#/postID#/comments/full
just make a link on your site to this url, and it should let people subscribe to the feed.
Sorry, I don't do much blogspot. Let me know if this works.
