Reply button not working in Blogger comments

Many of the blogger use modified custom templates instead of the basic templates provided by blogger itself. Many a problems occurs when we start using new template. One of which is these templates doesn't allow to do reply to comments on any blogger post. 

 So the question is 

How to Enable Threaded Comments in Customized Blogger

So to enable your reply link in comments section you just need to follow some instructions which are actually very easy.

Step 1.  Make sure your blog's pre post comment feed is in full mode.

Here's how you can check or change the setting:

New interface: Go to Settings > Other > Allow Blog Feeds > Custom > Per-Post Comment Feeds and set it to Full.

Old interface: Go to Settings > Site Feed > Advanced Mode > Per-Post Comment Feeds and set it to Full.

Step 2. Your blog should opted for embedded comments.

These are the steps to switch to Embedded comments:

New interface: Go to Settings > Posts and Comments > Comments > Comment Location and select Embedded.

Old interface: Go to Settings > Comments > Comment Form Placement and select Embedded below post.

Besides this in custom template blog you need to reset your blog post area. But before going to do that make a backup of your current template because it may cause some unwanted changes.
See here >> How to make backup of your blogger template

So these are the steps for how to reset your custom template

• Go to Template > Edit HTML > Proceed.

Make sure the  Expand Widget Templates check box is UNCHECKED.

• Find the following line in your HTML code:

<b:widget id='Blog1' locked='true' title='Blog Posts' type='Blog'/>

• Change the ID from Blog1 to Blog2. It’s as easy as that. What this step does is removing the corrupt Blog Posts gadget (Blog1) and replacing it with a fresh new gadget (Blog2).

• Click SAVE TEMPLATE button to save.

• You will be asked whether to keep the widget or delete it. Choose delete by clicking the DELETE WIDGETS button.

View your blog. The post gadget should by now revert to default template -fully functioning and free of any changes.
Now just click on the reply link of comment of any post and you will be really feel happy to see the reply link working from now .
