Blogspot’s new threaded commenting system

If you have a fancy schmancy blog design my moi, SOME of you won’t have this feature yet. It’s because I start from scratch with HTML. I don’t use the pre-made blogger templates.

However, I’ve been all over blogland and some have it already! Hooray for you!

Hang in there if you don’t…

You also have to have your comments embedded below your post area (not a pop-up box). Change this option in SETTINGS > COMMENTS. Here is also a step-by-step walkthrough.

Below is a comment from Pat Coleman (Software Engineer) from Blogger Buzz….

So, it will be coming for those with a custom design. I’m not sure when though.

If you really need threaded commenting, then you’re options are disqu, comment luv (probably my choice), move to wordpress, or just stay as is.

Also, another tip -say NO to word verification in the same settings area.

Happy Blogging! x

    Can I get this happening on my blog? Is there something you can do?
    Let me know, I am keen to get this going on my blog too.

      To get CommentLuv?

      • Claireyhewitt

        No, can you simplify my blog or something so that I can access the new blogger commenting system? Does that work?

        • Katrina (author)

          Make sure you comments are embedded in the post – not in a pop-up window like you have.
          Settings > Comments > Embedded.

    PS The little box that pops over on my screen with You may also like – that is excellent, this is the first blog I have seen that on.

  • Kek

    Ha! I just checked back with Blogger and saw the reply about a minute before I saw your post. I figured it had to do with the customisation…

    Let’s hope they’re quick about offering a solution.

  • Sarah B

    Mine’s changed. I don’t like it when things change but I suppose I will get used to it 🙂

  • Dannie (A Dose of Dannie)

    hey how do i get this on my blog (on blogger platform)
    how do i check it etc… Any help would be great katrina (hint) x 🙂

    • Katrina (author)

      You don’t have to do anything to get it. It’ll just appear. But read all about how it happens over at Blogger Buzz. The link is in my post 🙂

  • deb

    I read this from your twitter link and had a bit on an investigate. I reckon I will give comment luv a try. Thanks for the heads up.

  • Bronwyn @ Mad Crafty Mama

    Another tweeter alerted me to this, and I was a bit disappointed when I couldn’t see it on my blog. A couple of slight setting changes though and – hey presto – I now have threaded commenting. Very impressed. 🙂

  • deb

    MIne changed by itself, took me a while to realise. Although it is good to be able to comment directly back to people I really like the recent posts part of comment luv.

  • The Distressed Mother

    I have absolutely no idea what you’re talking about. haha I’m that good.

  • Maxabella

    Mine seems to work on the iPhone / iPad, but not on my computer. Kinda weird. Thanks Katrina. x

  • sinddy

    wow i will try this with my blog, thanks

  • Annie

    Hi Katrina, I read the info but am a little confused (easy for me).
    If this reply thingy is enabled does that mean anyone could leave a threaded comment and I have no control over the content that is then published, like I now have with comment modification?
    It certainly would be an easier way for the blogger to reply to comments.

    • Katrina (author)

      Hi Annie, as far as I know, you still moderate everything. I’ll do a bit of research for you though to confirm.

    • Katrina (author)

      And such a good question which I had not entirely thought of.

      • Annie

        Thanks. I’m replying to your reply to see what happens xx

        • Katrina (author)

          I approved that one, but I’m wordpress. I’ll try it on your blogspot blog.

  • Annie

    Hah typo above, I meant moderation!
    Must be cocktail hour x

  • Cathy

    Will the threaded commenting system magically appear on my blog someday? Would love to reply individually to those who comment!

      • Cathy

        My settings are correct…so guess I just have to wait *twiddles thumbs*

        • Katrina (author)

          Hi Cathy, I just went over to check your blog and your comment box is still popping up – it needs to be embedded below the post 🙂

          • Cathy

            Lol I obviously didn’t read the instructions fully :p thanks so much – it’s working!! And I’m so excited!!

  • Mishaps and Mayhem of a gluten free life

    Great point about word verification, I’ve posted some posts when I’m tired and the spelling is horrible! Now ii copy n paste 2 a word document, check spelling n grammar, it’s also a backup! Thanks again for great tips!

    Greatest Airline Approved Pet Carriers

    In the event you strategy on flying soon, and you
    are going to provide your very little pal in addition to you for
    instance your puppy, or perhaps your cat, you’ll most probably have to have a provider that is definitely FAA authorized. If it isn’t, you could be turned away on the
    door, and you won’t be capable to carry small Fido alongside.

    Here is what we have to search out for when you are searching for the ideal airline accepted pet carrier…

    Make sure it can be FAA accredited: The initial matter that you need to check out out is always to make certain that the carrier is FAA permitted. This fashion, you may know for any reality which you can provide it on board. Once you acquire it in retailer, or perhaps online, it should tell you correct on the box if it’s suitable.

    Obtain the right measurement: Know the way large, and how significantly your
    pet weighs. You don’t would like to invest in a carrier which is as well small. As an alternative, you will intend to make sure that you simply get one that allows your pet to get relatively comfy within their carrier, though staying carried all around.

    Look at critiques: Some carriers seem wonderful, but what you learn later is always that they can be cheaply created, or they only do not take care of well. You’ll desire to check out a location like Amazon, or do
    a fast Google search to check out what other individuals imagine it.

    One thing is obviously, and when you plan on flying along with your pet, make certain you have a provider.
    By doing so, your pet will fly easily, and
    it’ll be considered a whole lot simpler to carry your pet about.
