While working in a customer's blog setup today I notice two new features:
- Popular Posts – Shows a thumbnail and snippet of your follower's favorites!
- Blog Stats – Shows a live number of page views (counter).
To add them,
- Simply go to Design from your Dashboard, then click on Page Elements.
- Click Add a Gadget.
- Click on the Popular Posts (at the top since it's new).
- Then choose your settings and click Save. Drag and drop where you would like it displayed in your blog.
- Next, click Add a Gadget again. We are going to add Blog Stats.
- Click on Blog Stats, again at the top since it's a new feature!
- Then choose a style and click Save. Drag and drop where you'd like in your blog.
- Save changes.
- You're done!
