Solution to bX errors when uploading or updating template in Blogspot
Monday, March 2, 2009

Recently, whenever you try to upload or update or change a template in Blogspot Blogger, you will experience this "bX-bliced" errors. In later stage, the errors becomes all sort of numbers include: "bX-y6cz0v", "bX-8dyqz0", "bX-si9ejx", all sort of varieties. And here comes the solutions:

1. Open the new template XML file in any text editor, preferably WordPad (right click --> Open With --> WordPad).

2. “Ctrl + F” and search for the word "widget id"

3. Replace the "b:widget id='Anything1'" to "b:widget id='Anything11'" (example "b:widget id='Header1'" to "b:widget id='Header11'"), you can replace the number into any number you want, but must be at least double digit, 1 to 11, 2 to 22, etc... is a good choice.

4. Save the file. And upload the template either upload the xml file or cut and paste as usual.

Do you have to change all the places where "widget id" shows up in your search on the xml file?

I can't get this to work

not worked

Gae said... March 6, 2009 at 3:21 PM  

Thank you so much, this has been a frustration for days, now the problem is this message:


[Your template could not be parsed as it is not well-formed. Please make sure all XML elements are closed properly.
XML error message: The element type "b:section" must be terminated by the matching end-tag "".]



BTW I am copying and pasting the code into html if that is any help. I am soo desperate:(

Thanks

The solution works, and as proven by many others who left comments here.

If you get other errors, very likely you have a typo or remove something extra. Just redo it everything and try again.

And thanks for everyone left me comments here, will be good if you link to me!!!

Tony Bourdier said... March 8, 2009 at 10:12 AM  

Wow ! I am surprise that it worked for everyone except me. Mines didn't have the "b:widget id='Anything1" it did have the widget in may locations but not the word "anything1" in that phrase was ever found in my template. SO I'm stuck here :o(

If i open it with word pad or anything else I just get heap of symbols...no matter what I do so I cant tweak the widget

I did what you suggested and now get this message: Please correct the error below, and submit your template again.
Invalid variable declaration in page skin: This is not a recognized value for font weight. Input: bold

Any input on how to proceed from there? Thanks!
