Is it valuation of Blogger’s TOS ?… will Blogger remove my account?

I found this “Unless you publish your blog via FTP, the Navbar cannot be disabled.”

but I don’t know if that means they just don’t offer you a nice little button option to remove it or if it means you are not allowed to remove it.

I have found nothing that clearly states whether it is allowed or not.

I don’t mind hosting my blog via FTP except that Blogger doesnt support XML templates if I host it.

Is this likely to change any time soon?

#navbar-iframe {
height:0px;

In case anyone is interested in whether or not hiding the blogger navbar is a violation of the Blogger TOS, it isn’t. See the following post with an explanation by a Blogger employee:

You know, the blogger employee responded with an answer vague enough to cast a lot of doubts about their policy. IOW, read between the friggin’ lines people. They won’t *ban* your site if you remove the navbar, but they recommend you don’t do it *wink*

Check to see if you’re blog has been crawled lately after removing it.

If you own your own domain, they can’t. Coz you’re allowed to do so.

Paste it anywhere in the Template code,period.

Thanks for this! I didn’t like that navbar at the top of my site. It looks ugly, but this easy fix hid it from view.

It is technically not legal to do this unless you host your blog off of blogger, but you can still do it. Nobody cares.

works perfectly but you need to add this code into the advance options under CSS

Reply

David

Thanks! I found I had to make sure the code was in the CSS portion of my header. Anywhere else and it didn’t work. Otherwise, great – and good knowing a blogger employee gave the unofficial Okay.

it is just recently that i knew that it’s possible to remove this navbar, my blogs were just bad and so, for long time. In my opinion it’s always a better option to remove the blogger navbar because when it’s not done, the blog just looks like a novice blog. Thanks so much for the trick!
