For quite a while I've seen several blogs that remained just at the VERY bottom of My Blog List, seen on the right sideline of my blog.
What is a blog feed?
It is a blog feed format that shows us the latest updates from blogs we follow on our side line.
Such links are also great for promoting your own web presence!
BUT—how to get them to work so they DO UPDATE!
At the way bottom of My Blog List there remained several blogs that NEVER DID UPDATE TO THEIR NEWEST POST...
Their Blog Feed remained STAGNANT
Above is an example of how an updated blog feed looks like!
Make sure that you marked to have them sorted by the Most recently updated.
With the Icon—Title—Thumbnail (Blogger at present is not allowing it to show up at ANY BLOG... 😡—Date of last update!
First—you open the stagnant blog feed in order to have their home blog link at hand!
You need to do that because next we go in to Configure Blog List and Delete the stagnant blog feed.
Click on SAVE!
Scroll all the way to the very bottom of your Configure Blog List and click on ADD A NEW ITEM
You now add the removed blog but this time we do it correctly!
By clicking on CONTINUE
DON'T ADD Blog name!!!
After we click on CONTINUE we read:
Feed URL found
We mark Use feed URL and its title and click OK
Only then the SAVE button becomes clickable.
DONE!
Hoping this will help some of you for updating Blog List on the side bar.
Grazie per i consigli!

Liebe Mariette, ich muß meines dringend aktualisieren! Aber heute wird das nicht mehr, habe eben an einem neuen Beitrag geschrieben... jetzt ist Mittagessen dran... und danach Frischluft...
ReplyDeletewir haben den ersten Schnee und die Vögel sind fleißig am Futterhaus... freue mich darüber, sie so schön aus der Nähe sehen zu können :-)))
Viele Grüße von Viola. Ich wünsche Euch eine wunderschöne Woche.
Liebe Viola,
DeleteJa, bei euch ist es schon sechs Stunden später und bald wieder dunkel.
Genießt die Frischluft und auch die Vögel am Futterhaus!
Liebe Grüße,
Mariette
I don’t have a blog list on my blog. I just never got around to it. For years, January was always my blog cleanup month. Change the theme etc. I’ll have to consider a blog list.
ReplyDeleteDearest Debby,
DeleteThose winter months are perfect for tackling such chores!
Hugs,
Mariette
Hi, Mariette and Pieter!
ReplyDeleteI have some blogs in my blog list that are stagnant and the feeds don't update. Now I can do this. THANK YOU!!!
I always had to open them to see if they were updated, and this way it's a lot easier!
:)
Dearest Paula,
DeleteYeah, WHY did I not stumble on this 'trick' sooner?!
But so glad for having solved an otherwise tedious search to check and see IF they still publish any posts.
Hugs,
Mariette
It's a big help, Mariette!
ReplyDeleteLots of hugs!
:)
You're so welcome Paula!
DeleteDone with love... and for free as always.
Hugs,
Mariette
You're a sweet!😍

It has only happened to me twice since 2008. I spent hours sweating over the problem and resolved nothing, so I just left them down the bottom. MAYBE I will try again now, thank you.

Dearest Hels,
DeleteOften we look for a solution—the hard way.
Did discover this just by accident, by hovering my cursor over the link...
Glad I captured the screenshots right away and now know.
Hugs,
