How to unlock blogger widgets

Basically, there are two types of blogger widgets, first are locked widgets and second are locked widgets. One cannot remove the locked blogger widgets, as the "REMOVE" option is disabled in them. If a blogger widget doesn't have "REMOVE" button, it means that it is locked. Some examples of locked blogger widgets are Navbar, Attribution. Few blogger templates may have some other type of locked widgets.

This step-by-step tutorial to show you how to unlock blogger widgets
  1. Go to Layout section of your blogger dashboard
  2. Then click on Edit link of a particular widget which you want to unlock.
  3. After that go address bar of the widget and find the "widgetId" in it(probably at the last of the address bar).
  4. Now copy the value of "widgetId", for example "Navbar1" in my case.
  5. Now go to Template -> Edit HTML -> Proceed -> Expand Widget Templates(check) and find the "widgetId" copied in step 3(Navbar1 in my case) .The code will be somewhat like this

  6. Change the value of Loked to false. This will unlock the blogger widget.
  7. Now Save your template.

Once widget is unlocked, you can now remove it from the "Layout" section of blogger dashboard. You can also unlock the Navbar of blogger and also the attribution by following the same way.
