How To Control Blogger’s Official Widgets?

This is the Procedure applied to Blogger’s official widgets like About Me, Archives, Poll etc. For controlling that widgets do this,

1. Go To Blogger >> Design (or) Template(for new interface) >> Edit HTML
2. Backup your template
3. Check the Expand Widgets Templates Box
4. Search for the title of the widget you want to control
5. The code for the widget will look something similar to this one,

<b:widget id='HTML' locked='false' title='WIDGET-TITLE-HERE' type='Profile'>
<b:includable id='main'>
WIDGET CODE GOES HERE
</b:includable> </b:widget>

On finding the title in place of WIDGET-TITLE-HERE you will find two similar codes like those I have shown in blueYou just need to add the Controlling codes in the following manner. For example if you wish to show a widget at Homepage only then do this,

<b:widget id='HTML' locked='false' title='WIDGET-TITLE-HERE' type='Profile'>
<b:includable id='main'>
<b:if cond='data:blog.url == data:blog.homepageUrl'>
WIDGET CODE GOES HERE
</b:if>
</b:includable> </b:widget>

where WIDGET CODE GOES HERE is the code of the widget you want to show or hide.
