A: Hi Rachel, thanks for asking. You can always grab a new copy of your widget code from your member profile page. Here's what you do:

  1. Log in
  2. Go to your member profile page
  3. Click on the "Edit" link
  4. On the right side of the Edit page, click on the "Widget" link

Select and copy the widget code on this page, then go to Blogger's Layout menu and use the "Add a Page Element" wizard to reinstall.

Hope that gets you there - let me know if you run into trouble and thanks for using Askablogr!

Member Question: Is There an "Ask Everyone" Option?

Q: Is there a way to throw a question out to the community at large?
Asked by JonKnight

A: Hey Jon, thanks for the question and interesting idea. We've been pretty wary of leaving the door open for spammers to abuse Askablogr, so this isn't a feature we've considered. Given our controls for ignoring questions and blocking users, I can imagine offering the option to registered members, but it still makes me a little nervous. I'd love to hear how you'd use it, and if there are other members out there who would also like to see this feature come to life. Just comment on this blog post to let me know your thoughts...
