Automatically Add Content to Every Blog Post
I was. And I thought there must be a better way, so I did some poking around on the Blogger dashboard and found a short cut.
It’s a small thing, but whatever I can do to save time when getting a post ready is really helpful to me.
I may be the last one to discover this, but just in case there’s someone else out there like me I thought I’d pass along this little tip.
Trust me…. it’s really easy.
If you look at the end of this post everything from ‘Thanks so much for reading!’ is now there when I open a new post page. I don’t have to add it every time anymore… and I’m sooo loving that.
Just go into your last post, go into html mode, and copy whatever it is that you put into every post.
Then go to your blogger dashboard, click on settings, then click on posts and comments. See the box beside Post Template… that’s where you paste the html code that you just copied from your post. (I ran out of colour ink just before printing this, so I had to scan the page in black and white.)
Click Save Settings in the upper right hand corner… and you’re done. Go back into posts, open a new one, and check it out.
You can add whatever you want to every post automatically with these few easy steps, and you don’t need to know anything about html. You just need to copy and paste.
I hope this is helpful.
Thanks so much for reading!
Oh thank you, I copy and past everything I will do this!
Brilliant! Thanks for sharing this Tuula!
I do copy and paste every time. This weekend I was trying to schedule posts to publish at a certain time. It did not work. Any helpful hints? And where did you get the signature?
I didn't know that! Thank you!
OMG – TUULA – as soon as I have a moment to figure this out – I'm all over it –
THANKS SO MUCH !!!!!!!!!!!
This is huge – and a big saver of time
Would you mind if I copy this page on to my Sharing is Caring page???
It's where I put blogging tips – and would link back to this page!

Thanks. I was getting tired of copy and paste. I pinned for later.

Thanks so much for this post. Such an easy thing to do, but one I was unaware of. Hope you don't mind, but I've pinned. I'd love you to share this at our ongoing link party that's just for Blog Tips…

Great tip! Thanks for the tutorial!
Thank you so much Tuula!!! Being a bit of a blog dummy, I will be sure to remember this when I figure out how to do an awesome signature like yours! …..perhaps a tutorial on that???
Hmmm. I think I am going to have to try this out. I agree with Feral Turtle, how did you do your signature?
