Updates and Bug Fixes for May 9th

Here’s a quick summary of recent fixes and changes we’ve made to Blogger:

• Layouts now has a blog.pageName datum that gives the name of the current page without the “[Blog Name]: ” prefix that blog.pageTitle adds.
• Picture page element can now optionally link the picture to a URL.
  
• Warnings and better handling of interrupted video uploads.
• Pictures shot in burst mode on Sony Ericsson phones are now rotated correctly.
  
• Blog URL now updates correctly when switching between Blog*Spot and FTP hosting.
• Usability improvements to photo deletion workflow on the delete post page.
  
• “Cancel” button on delete post page no longer has unnecessary quotation marks.
  
• Miscellaneous translation improvements.
  
• Profile URLs and threading data are now available via Atom feed.
• Reliability and feature improvements to the Blog List and gadget directory on Blogger in draft.
  

Also, in case you missed the announcement, last week we started scheduling posts dated in the future.

Apologies again for the unexpected appearance of star ratings. Look for this feature soon (opt-in only!) on Blogger in draft.
