Even as you experience the new blogging platform - we thought why not update you with the activities at our end !

Today we fixed the bugs coming in the Most Recent display, Sharing of posts,

some wrong links and RSS feeds redirection (so that the earlier feed URLs continue to work)

We also migrated blogs, blogs posts and comments created in last 4-5 hours of our transition to the new platform yesterday.

We are aware that many of you are still facing issues regarding migration of their data but please be patient we will fix all the issues - so don’t panic thinking that your data is lost.

Many of the bloggers have asked for feature to write blogs in Hindi languages - we used to have this feature in the earlier platform - we would be soon launching a much better feature in the new platform very soon

Please keep pouring in with your feedback - as we wrote before you can suggest us new themes that you would want to see on this platform - you can choose from any of the several themes wordpress themes available. Check out the following links for the same:

The ibibo Blogging Team

From around 6:30 PM to 10:00 PM today you wouldn’t be able to create new blogs, blog posts or write new comments.

This is because we are under transition to a new blogging system and therefore we would have to stop all the content generation activities . So while you would be able to read blog posts, you wouldn’t be able to write any.

The moment has finally arrived. And soon we would be on a new blogging platform with tons of features.

So please bear with us because from today night you would have a world class blogging platform to your disposal that can help you become a professional blogger and develop your own following!
