BookSmart

Won't work for blogger? Error message due to old blogger?

I am looking to create a book from my blogger account.  I have just downloaded the app. and tried to select blogger as my blog source.  It gives me an error message that states it is not compatible with the old blogger, and that I need to upgrade to the new one. 

 

1.  I have upgraded to the new blogger – a long time ago.

2.  I have not input anything in about my blog yet, so how would it know?

3. How do I go about fixing this?

 

Any help would be much appreciated!

Hello Sammy,

I would recommend downloading BookSmart 1.9 as it has revised blog support and should get you all set.

Hope that helps.

I have the same problem as Sammy, and I am using version 1.9.  Can anyone help me?

I’m using a Mac with OSX Tiger and v1.9. Although I don’t really have any desire to make a book out of a blog… I thought I’d see if the feature worked anyway. First got a message that I need to migrate to the new blogger. Funny thing is, I thought I already had about a year ago. Still, I filled in the info to migrate from the old to the new. Then tried to slurp in in again via v1.9. It worked for me just fine. It seemed to skip past the banners and video clips it didn’t recognize and slurped all the text and images in just fine.

I tried my South Africa blog:

My Mexican Motorcycle Odyssey blog:

And my MOLESKINE blog:

http://www.poppinfreshmedia.com/moleskine.html

 

All worked just fine. It ignored my blurb book promo banners, video clips, etc. and everthing went in nice and smooth. Perhaps it’s a PC problem?

Make sure you login with your full gmail address, rather then just your username (i.e. username@gmail.com). That seemed to work for me!

Yes.. you must log in with your full gmail username instead of the old way which was just to use the login name.  Good luck!
