✏️ How to Edit and Style Blogger Post Labels (Step-by-Step Guide + CSS Tips)

Ever felt like the default Blogger labels just don't match your blog's vibe? 😅 I’ve been there too. When I first started customizing my Blogger layout, the Labels widget was one of the trickiest things to style. It looked too plain, and I wanted something more colorful, modern, and me. 🎨

After lots of trial-and-error (and a few broken layouts 😬), I finally figured out how to edit and style those labels using simple CSS—and now I’m sharing everything I learned in this step-by-step guide. Whether you're a beginner or just want to give your blog a quick refresh, this one's for you!

✏️ How to Edit Blogger Post Labels (Manually in Each Post)

1. Go to Blogger Dashboard
2. Select your blog and click “Posts”
3. Click Edit on the post you want to modify
4. On the right-hand panel, find “Labels”
5. Enter new labels or edit existing ones

🎨 How to Style Blogger Labels (Sidebar, Footer, or Post)

To style how labels look (font, background color, size, etc.), you’ll need to edit your blog's CSS.

---

✅ Option A: Style Labels in the Sidebar (Label Widget)

1. Go to Blogger > Layout
2. Find the Label widget (usually in sidebar)
3. Click Edit to choose:
• List or Cloud
• Sort by frequency or alphabetically
• Which labels to show
4. Click Save

🔧 Style it with CSS:

Go to Theme > Customize > Advanced > Add CSS (or Theme > Edit HTML) and paste:

 /* Style sidebar label links */
.Label a {
  background-color: #f0f0f0;
  color: #333;
  padding: 6px 10px;
  border-radius: 15px;
  margin: 3px;
  display: inline-block;
  font-size: 14px;
  text-decoration: none;}

.Label a:hover {
  background-color: #ffc107;
  color: #fff;}

✅ Option B: Style Labels Under Blog Posts

If your labels appear under each post, use this CSS:

/* Style labels under blog posts */
.post-labels a {
  background-color: #e0f7fa;
  color: #00796b;
  padding: 4px 8px;
  margin-right: 5px;
  border-radius: 12px;
  font-size: 13px;
  text-decoration: none;}

.post-labels a:hover {
  background-color: #00796b;
  color: #fff;}

You can adjust:

• background-color and color
• padding and font-size
• border-radius for rounded shapes (pill style)

✨ Bonus Tip: Hide Specific Labels

To hide certain labels from the Label widget:

1. Go to Layout > Edit Label Gadget
2. Uncheck unwanted labels
3. Or hide them via CSS:

 a[href*='LabelName'] {
  display: none !important;}

Replace 'LabelName' with the actual label text (case-sensitive, spaces become + in URL).
