Many bloggers grumble and complain about the deletion of Widgets when they change the template. The widget deletion when changing the template is annoying indeed, because you may get the widget for long time search. Therefore, today i would like to deliver the Tips to change the template without deleting the Widgets that have been installed.
"Suggestion: Apply the tips on your trial blog until you catch the points perfectly. After that, you can apply the tips on your real blog."
Step #1. Backup Template
1.Please login to blogger with your ID
2.Click Layout
3.Click the Edit HTML tab.
4.Click the Download Full Template. Please download the file to your computer.
5.Backup process is done. This is only to cope with the error when you change the template because you can restore the backup file.
Step #2 : Backup Widget Code (This is the most important).
1.Make sure you are still in Edit HTML.
2.Copy all the widget codes on your blog into Notepad, or other text editors. The widget code usually begins with the code < b:widget ……
The example of widget code of easyy bloger:
< b:widget id='HTML3' locked='false' title='' type='HTML'/>
< b:widget id='HTML4' locked='false' title='' type='HTML'/>
< b:widget id='HTML10' locked='false' title='Follow Me' type='HTML'/>
< b:widget id='HTML7' locked='false' title='' type='HTML'/>
< b:widget id='HTML14' locked='false' title='Blogging tutorial For Beginner' type='HTML'/>
< b:widget id='HTML11' locked='false' title='Free Template Gallery' type='HTML'/>
< b:widget id='HTML9' locked='false' title='News & Update' type='HTML'/>
< b:widget id='HTML1' locked='false' title='My Site Info' type='HTML'/>
Except the widget codes as follow, you do not need to backup because any template has the widgets:
< b:widget id='Header1' locked='true' title='… (Header)' type='Header'/>
< b:widget id='Blog1' locked='true' title='Posting Blog' type='Blog'/>
3.The process of Widget code backup is done.
Step #3 : To change template

2.Click the button Browse.. in the upside, choose the template that you have downloaded at template provider, then click Upload.
3.There will be warning that Widgets are about to be deleted.
4.Click Cancel.
5.Scroll down the page and find the position where your widgets are present. The code usually begins with < b:section …. And ends with < /b:section> . e.g. :
< b:section class='sidebar' id='sidebar' preferred='yes'>
< /b:section>
6.Copy and then Paste the widget code that you have backed up at Step #2 between the code to place the widget. E.g.:
< b:section class='sidebar' id='sidebar' preferred='yes'>
< b:widget id='HTML3' locked='false' title='' type='HTML'/>
< b:widget id='HTML4' locked='false' title='' type='HTML'/>
< b:widget id='HTML10' locked='false' title='Follow Me' type='HTML'/>
< b:widget id='HTML7' locked='false' title='' type='HTML'/>

< b:widget id='HTML11' locked='false' title='Free Template Gallery' type='HTML'/>
< b:widget id='HTML9' locked='false' title='News & Update' type='HTML'/>
< b:widget id='HTML1' locked='false' title='My Site Info' type='HTML'/>
< /b:section>
