News!! Where Is The Blogger Help Forum Now?

This quick-tip is close how to notice the electrical flow version of Blogger's back upward forum.

27 July update:   I noticed yesterday that Google convey changed the procedure back, in addition to that Blogger's assist link directly leads direct to the summary page which includes a Community button.   I gauge this way they listened - if non to me, in addition to thus at to the lowest degree to everyone else who complained.




For equally long equally I convey been using Blogger, Google convey provided 2 types of support:

• A laid upward of support articles - roughly of which aren't upward to appointment - that clitoris how to create criterion things
• A support forum, where people tin enquire questions, which are answered yesteryear other Blogger users. This forum has roughly people who are tagged equally "Top Contributors" who convey particular rights, similar existence able to shipping questions to the Google staff who are also using the foru - but who champaign don't convey the fourth dimension to read all the posts.

Unlike roughly people, I don't convey whatsoever problems alongside the peer-support model. It's 24x7. It supports lots of languages. It gives ordinary people a way to larn to a greater extent than close Blogger, yesteryear preparing answers to other people's questions.   It allow me cook upward reputation equally a helpful person, in addition to thus encouraged other helpers to assist me when I got stuck.   It was also a house I could refer to inward my ain comment moderation policies:   I would rather that people asked for assist alongside their blogs on a public, peer reviewed forum than hither on Blogger-HAT where in that place is non regular review process.

I wasn't to thrilled close the move to a Google-groups based assist forum. I tin meet why using a criterion tool is good, but the Group software only doesn't move thus good on my pocket-size netbook.

And I'm less-than-happy close the way that Google seems to live on making it ever-harder to notice the forum: a few weeks dorsum they added roughly other click to the procedure (Gear-wheel > Blogger Help > Community), in addition to directly I meet there's soundless roughly other ane (Gear-wheel > Blogger Help > More (the down-arrow at the bottom of the page) Blogger).

So here's a quick link, which I'm going to expire on upward to date, in addition to pose on my sidebar too. Click it to become straight to the Blogger help/product forum:      https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!forum/blogger
