How to Remove the Dashboard in Blogspot

Blogspot is a free blog service owned by Google that allows you to choose whether to leave your blog hosted on Blogspot's servers or host it on your own server. Blogspot requires users to keep the dashboard (also referred to as the navbar) enabled if the blog is not self-hosted, but if your Blogspot blog is hosted on your own server you can remove the dashboard that appears at the top of the blog at your discretion.

Instructions

1. Log in to your Blogspot account.

2. Click the "Settings" link next to the blog you are editing.

3. Click the "Design" tab on the top navigation menu.

4. Click "Edit HTML."

5. Click the beginning of the line directly above the code "</head>" and press "Enter" to add a new line.

6. Click the blank line. Type "#navbar { display: none; )" without quotes.

7. Click the "Save Template" button. The dashboard navbar no longer appears at the top of the blog.
