Changing primary email ID in Blogger

I wondered many times trying to change my primary email ID. As I was using yahoo email ID but actually, wanted to use gmail ID for my blog to logIn. Finally, today is the day I make it happen. If you too wondering to change your primary email login ID with your gmail ID (which is the default user login ID for blogpost.com), here are the things you need to do.
  • Login to your blog using your existing email ID
  • Go to Settings then  under Permission find Blog Authors and click on '+Add Author'
  • Type email id you want to use for login and click on 'Invite Authors'
This is also a way to invite more people to contribute into your blog. If invited person accepts your invitation, s/he can start posting on your blog as an author. You can also assign that person an administrative rights to manage overall settings of your blog.



Let's come back to the point. Now you have invited yourself in your gmail(or in different eamil id). 
  • Check your gmail and follow the link to activate invitation (If you don't have gmail id and you have invited it in different email id, but you want to use gmail as username you can also create a new gmail id at this point)
  • Login with the new gmail user name and password
You are now able to create, edit and post but don't have much things to do. This is because you are only the author not an administrator. You need to have administrative privileges to manipulate other stuffs.
  • Login back with your old email id 
  • Go to Settings then  under Permission find new blog Authors and assign new user id as admin.
  • You can delete your old user id or assign as an author
  • You are now able to use your BRAND NEW user id with all the OLD BLOG POSTS
HURRAY !! Happy posting, Enjoy blogging.
