We see some concern about providing email subscriptions, from blog owners in
Blogger Help Forum: Get Help with an Issue
.
The blog in question is using a dynamic template. In some cases, even "Subscription Links" does not provide a "Subscribe by Email" option - and it appears that the blog owner is really out of luck.
The "Subscribe by Email" gadget does not work, with dynamic templates - and some dynamic templates don't support the "Subscription Links" gadget with "Subscribe by Email" added.
Add "Subscription Links" to a blog with a dynamic template - for some blogs.
In some cases, you may not even want to use "Subscription Links". You can, however, use a LinkList gadget, to do the same thing - and to make an improved "Subscription Links" gadget.
In this case, add "Subscribe by Email" as a linklist gadget.
Just add the "Subscription Link Code", in a linklist gadget. Here is the code, from the FeedBurner Publicize dashboard page, for my blog, Chucks Musings .
The "Subscription Management" page, and "Subscription Link Code".
Add the link caption as "New Site Name", and the link code as "New Site URL".
The "Subscription Link Code" caption, and link.
Just add a new LinkList gadget .
Copy into a LinkList.
Click "Add Link" - then "Save" - and finally, "Save arrangement".
And we have a new sidebar accessory.
And if you click on the link, you get the FeedBurner "Email Subscription Request" verification form.
So, either add "Subscription Links" - or make a custom LinkList accessory. One, or the other, will give you "Subscribe by Email", in a dynamic template.
Some #Blogger blogs, which use a dynamic template, won't display "Subscribe by Email" as an added option, in "Subscription Links". Or, in some cases, you may actually want a more robust "Subscribe by Email" - or "Subscribe" menu.
In this case, add a LinkList gadget - and add the subscription form as a FeedBurner hosted form, using "Subscription Link Code".
How do I provide email subscriptions for my blog? Neither Follow by Email or Subscription Links works, for email!
