In this post I will explain how to install the template file in your Blogger blog. If you have downloaded the .zip archive containing all the template files, first you’ll need to extract its contents to a folder in your computer. Then follow these steps:
1. Login to your Blogger dashboard. If you have more than one blog, just click on the title of the blog for which you want to install the new template.
2. Click on “Template” as shown below:
3. On the top right of the page, click on the “Backup/Restore” button, next to the settings icon:
4. You will now see a dialog box with the options to download the existing full template or to upload an external file. Click on “Choose file” or “Browse”, select the .xml file of the template, and click on “Upload”.
The template is now installed, and you can click on “Layout” on the left hand side to adjust or reorder your widgets and install the header and/or footer.
By the way, in case you haven’t done that yet, check out our premium blog templates!




Thank you so much for the info,it really helps a lot.
Sudah lama saya cuba untuk menukar templat. Setiap kali tukar, blogger asyik komen itu tidak lengkap ini tidak lengkap, atau salah. Rupa-rupanya melalui versi baharu ini, sangat mudah. Terima kasih. Lima bintang!
OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! I was going crazy whith this, really thank you thank you thank you!!
I uploaded the xml file but only the background appears – no header or footer or anything else. What did I miss?
Hi Stacy, header and footer need to be uploaded separately, via the “Layout” page in your Blogger backend. I sent you an email, if you need any assistance we’ll be glad to help. Thanks, DDS
This was so good! Had a great experience using the template and I love the way my blog looks now..
