Problems with your SECOND Blog Post

I frequently get mail from newbies asking for help when they are ready to add their SECOND post to the blog but can't find their way back. The first thing to figure out is whether or not you are signed in.

When you open the Block Lotto blog, look in the upper right corner of your browser window.  If you see something like this, you are NOT signed in.

You will need to click Sign In and provide the email address and password that you probably created when you accepted the invitation to become an author on the blog.

When you sign in, you'll see the blogger dashboard which will look something like this:

You won't see as many options as I have (because I am the owner of the block lotto blog), but you will see the New Post button and links to Edit Posts and View Blog.  Click the New Post button to add your message and block photo to the blog.  FYI, if you ever are creating a post and accidentally SAVE it instead of PUBLISH it, you can use the Edit Posts link to find your draft, finish the message and PUBLISH it.

You an also sign in by starting at blogger.com

If you are already signed in to your google account when you come to the block lotto blog, you'll see the email address associated with your google account and different links in the top right corner, including New Post and Sign Out.

 

The New Post link on this page will also take you to the page where you can create your message and post it.
