49 Inline comments are available for Blogger blogs!

I'm thrilled to tell you that the Blogger team have enabled a comment form below the post - Wordpress style! This is probably the feature we ALL wanted added to the Blogger service, so many thanks go out to the Blogger team for enabling this service for us.

The inline comment form is currently available through Blogger in Draft. To activate this, go to Settings>Comments in your Blogger dashboard and scroll down to "Comment form placement" where you can check the radio setting for "Embedded below post".

There is only one problem with this at the moment: those of us who have customized our templates cannot currently use this feature. This is because our templates do not contain the code required to display the comment form. If you use a default template, your comment form should automatically appear below your post once you have changed the comment settings in your blog.

I will post about this in full detail in the next couple of hours with instructions for those who have modified their templates. Update: I have now posted full details for adding comment form functionality to your customized Blogger template, and you can also see this in action beneath this (and every) post on Blogger Buster.

Just testing out my new comment form. If this displays correctly, we can be sure it works!

27 June 2008 10:14 HabsQ said...

It's wonderful! For sure I'll wait for your post about how to do it in customized template.

Thanks Amanda!

That´s what all of us were waiting for! It changes so many things if you work with Blogger!!! I have to try it, but I'm also a bit afraid, because I had already the comment form below the posts in a iframe...

27 June 2008 10:32 Amanda said...

I've just posted the tutorial for this which you can read here: http://www.bloggerbuster.com/2008/06/how-to-add-comment-form-beneath-your.html

For Yo Misma: Provided you still have the original comment code in place in your template, you can delete the iFrame section, then make the adjustments which I've described in my tutorial post.

Honestly, this is a much neater and better way of adding comment functionality to Blogger! Drop me a line if you need some advice for this. I'm really excited to know Blogger have added this feature :)

this is great Amanda...

30 June 2008 12:25 Black Zedd said...

Thanks for the heads up!

I'm sure for most of us the next step is to customize the form appearance..as it's located within an i-frame, I don't know exactly how to do that..

Great topic for your next post:)

Hi AMANDA, i did it successfully, you are really very helpful to the bloggers community...Kudos and more power to you sis, Just keep it going, and helping us and the Lord above will give the favor back to you ♥♥♥

12 July 2008 14:46 Franzi said...

Hy amanda,
thank you so much for this post. I installed it and it works very well. Only a little question: The "comment as:" is written in black and my background is black,too. So you can't read it and it looks a little weird. Can I change the color?
Thanks

14 July 2008 16:39 Theresa Komor said...

Has anyone figured out how to change the label on the comment form so that it shows on a dark background?

17 August 2008 22:12 Kenn North said...

Even works for FTP accounts, YAY!!!

25 August 2008 05:35 HR Wench said...

I have a customized template and I was able to add this feature just by selecting it in the comment section of my dashboard. Weird!

However, I hate the grey-fade-to-white look of comments that is default for this feature. I've tried to tweak it but I can't seem to make it go away. Any tips?

Thanks. This is very helpful

Actually, how come when I leave a comment using the Name/Url option it doesn't accurately link to the website I enter. When I hover over my name here, it puts the url for bloggerbuster.com in front of it.... hover over my name here and see. Any ideas? I don't see this happening on other entries above, but it did it on my post above and on my blog.

Steve said...

The problem seems to be if you don't type the "http://" in front of your URL address, then it gets messed up

26 August 2008 10:40 Amanda said...

@Steve: Thanks for pointing this out! I had experienced some problems with this issue a while back when using the MyBlogLog comment avatars (which is one reason why I stopped using it).

Aside from the issue of reader links not linking correctly, it also causes problems for the blog author in the form of dead links on each page.

It would be very useful if the Blogger team could add provision for checking the URL format when a reader chooses the Name/URL option to comment. For now though, I will add a reminder message instead :)

26 August 2008 15:29 Stephen Grant said...

Thanks Amanda!

What would be the best way to post a reminder message re: http under the "Post A Comment" heading? Via my Dashboard or do I need to make an edit to my template? :)

23 September 2008 07:33 Eden said...

Looks like they've just included a "subscribe" link alongside the "post comment" button. Any ideas on how to customize the look of this?

Hi Amanda,
I have been able to get the "Post a comment" form to appear under the comments, but I have been trying to get all comments to show up directly beneath my post, instead of having a link beneath my post that says "# comments" that you have to click on in order to see the comments. I would love to be able to see the comments below my post, lik you do here on your blog and many other blogs I have seen, without having to click on anything first. Hope that makes sense, I am not very advanced with all this :)

Thanks for any help you can offer.
