Blogger is updating all it's tools, in it timeline, Blogger recently improved Blogger template HTML Editor , now it has introduced "Comment Using Google+" which is similar to "Comment using <OpenID>"

Users can now comment using his/her G+ id, if user does not have G+ id, they will be prompted to create Google+ id.

For developers/blogger upgrading to Google Plus Comment boxCurrent comments or previous comments, that was commented using blogger profile will remain same. But comments posted using 3rd party widgets such as Disqus will disappear.

To activate Google+ Comment box
Go to
     --> Blogger.com
     --> Select your blog
     --> Select Google+ in the left Panel
     --> "Check" Use Google+ Comments on this blog




You might end up in trouble if you are using Custom Templates such as mine.
To activate "Comment using Google+" in Custom Templates, you have to REPLACE your current comment box code with Google+ Comment box.

Plz backup your template incase if anything goes wrong.

To backup your template, go to your blog's dashboard --> templete --> Backup/Restore (in top right) --> Download Full template

Search for
<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == &quot;item&quot;'>

you might find many, check whether it has code related to comment section, if so delete the code between
<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == &quot;item&quot;'>
code code code code code code code code code
code code code code code code code code code
</b:if>

and replace it by

<div class='cmt_iframe_holder'
expr:data-href='data:post.canonicalUrl'
expr:data-viewtype='data:post.viewType'/>



Now it should look like



<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == &quot;item&quot;'>
<div class='cmt_iframe_holder'
expr:data-href='data:post.canonicalUrl'
expr:data-viewtype='data:post.viewType'/>
</b:if>


Save and you are ready to use Comment using Google Plus in your custom template, however there is no guarantee, that this might work until you figure out correct position to replace code.
