Adding Pages in your Blogspot Blog Just like WordPress

Once your page is published, you can link to it from the new Pages widget. The Pages widget lets you add links to your pages as tabs at the top of your blog, or as links in your blog’s sidebar. (Note: existing third party templates may not support pages as tabs, but pages can still be added as links in your blog’s sidebar)

In the Pages widget, you can decide which pages will have links, and in what order they will appear. You can also choose whether or not you want links automatically created for pages when you create them by checking or unchecking the box to the left of Add New Pages by Default.

Making Custom Templates Compatible With Pages Tabs

  2. Go to the Layout | Edit HTML tab for your blog
  3. Download a backup of your template by clicking Download Full Template
  4. Click the checkbox next to Expand Widget Templates
  5. Look for the following three lines of HTML. If this HTML exists, change showaddelement=’no’ to showaddelement=’yes’ 
    <div id='crosscol-wrapper' style='text-align:center'>
         <b:section class='crosscol' id='crosscol' showaddelement='no'/>
   </div>
  6. If this HTML does not exist, paste the following lines of HTML where you want the tabs to appear (for instance, after <div id=’content-wrapper’>) 
    <div id='crosscol-wrapper' style='text-align:center'>          <b:section class='crosscol' id='crosscol' showaddelement='yes'/>        </div>
  7. Confirm tabs are correctly added, click Save Template
