May be, initially you would not have given enough importance to these labels. And now when you realized the importance, you may find tens and hundreds of posts in your blog with improper labels, which need to be edited, or you may even want to delete some of the labels you have already added, or you may want to add some new labels to your previous posts.
Blogger does help you to do this quite easily, but I still think that they should make it even more better !
Anyways here's how you can edit, add or delete labels in Blogger.
Log in to Blogger, in the Posting section, click on Edit Posts.
See the highlighted regions in the image above.
As soon as you click on Edit posts, you will see all posts written by you (select posts per page as 300 in the right corner of the page).
1. Now to delete any label, click on "Select All". Then in the drop down menu "Labels action", under "Remove label" option you will see the list of all labels, click on the one, you want to remove for ever.
2. To add a label, select all the posts, you want to add the label. Then in the drop down menu "Labels action", under "Apply label" option click on New label.... Finally enter the name of the new label.
3. And in case you want to edit a label, unfortunately there's no direct option given by Blogger.
So do this, firstly in the list of labels column, present at the left side of the page, click on the label you want to edit. Now only those posts are displayed which have this label. Now add a temporary label to these posts. Then delete the label, you want to edit. Now click on the temporary label in the labels list. Now add the new label. Then finally delete the temporary label.
And finally display important labels as a link list in a widget, or display all the labels as a flash widget in your blog.

Nice info, I agree that Blogger should include some sort of direct label editing tool, maybe if enough people request it they might include it in blogger in draft.
Thanks a lot, very useful...
:)
thanx
it was very helpful
Welcome xee-facts !
:)]
thanks
Hi, thanks for the tip.
About #3, I think you can save one step by selecting articles with the label you want to change, add a new ("modified") label to them, do the same selection and than erase the old label.
Yes that can be done, but I have written this additional step, because in case some one wants to modify the word with (say) a capital letter, like modify "gadgets" to "Gadgets", then you cannot add the tag Gadgets, without deleting the tag gadgets first, because Blogger considers both the words as same.
In that case, you must add something like gadgets1 or gadgets2 etc. as a temporary tag, then you have to delete the first tag (gadgets), and then add the new tag Gadgets, and finally delete the temporary tag too !
Thank you so much!!
very useful post! :D
thank you so much for this article. It has been my guide in deleting irrelevant labels.

Glad to help you buddy!
Wow this is just what I was looking for..Thanks so much.
I have been trying to figure out how to do this for MONTHS! My workaround was to individually edit each post--not at all efficient and goodness knows what it did to my RSS feed. Thanks for the info.
hye i need some help regarding this post. im having tough times to complete this task anyway.
my question is how do you do things like this:
Haunted Room Stories:
[1] [2] [3] [4] [5]
this is basically to post series of stories from the same title. so you only need to click on the number which link to the entry you want to read. can you please help me? im a real noob in this blog world
Hi ikha,
couldn't get your purpose...
Are these 5 parts of a story linked to subsections from the same page, like in wikipedia (introduction, history, sunnary etc.)?
i dont really good in explaining i guess, but roughly those 5 entries are linked to one very subsections. like if you are going to do a series of novels. this is an example
http://hlovaterror.blogdrive.com/
They are all simple hyperlinks.
Create 10 (or whatever number of) posts, and divide your story in to these 10 parts.
Now you will have ten urls to these 10 posts:
yourblog.blogspot.com/2009/12/post-1.html
yourblog.blogspot.com/2009/12/post-2.html
..
..
..
yourblog.blogspot.com/2009/12/post-10.html
Now create hyperlinks to those 10 brackets, like this:
[<a href="http://yourblog.blogspot.com/2009/12/post-1.html">1<>][<a href="http://yourblog.blogspot.com/2009/12/post-2.html">2</a>]...[<a href="http://yourblog.blogspot.com/2009/12/post-10.html">10</a>]
That's it, place these hyperlinked brackets in a HTML/JavaScript widget and drag it to your sidebar.
thank you so much for this article. It has been my guide in deleting irrelevant labels.
I am included this form see link below
http://freecomputercourses.blogspot.com/2009/12/contact-us.html#
thank you! I've been trying to figure out how to do this for a while now. Blogger doesn't make it very clear.
You are most welcome....Happy New Year !
In the above image how do you blur it and how do you highlight in specific place?
Photoshop buddy! The master of all image-editing software ;)
Oh...it's live. I 4get it. :D
Yes this was helpful BUT is there a way to SAVE (without publishing) these label changes?
I just want to save the changes.
Not resend the bloody thing out again.
Don't hit the "publish" button. Simply wait for a few seconds, and changes will be saved autmatically.
Thank you! This was very helpful to me when I realized that I had capitalized some labels and not others. I like uniformity.
I had no idea how to go about changing them, though. So this was very useful.
waowww!!!
thanKs
hey sombdy said this
To add Label Links in the sidebar click on your label below your posts. This will open the label page in the browser. Copy down the link rom the address bar. Then login to Dashboard of Blogger and click on Template. In the Edit Html tab paste the following code in the sidebar section :
buutt i still can not understand how can i have that

AGHHHH! I just spent hours doing the whole thing one by one!!!
Wish I saw this earlier
Thank you very much for this tip, I was having some trouble finding the way to delete some labels.

Wow, this was such a huge help. I have been trying for a month to delete 2 labels that were connected somehow. As you know with the limited number of labels allowed on Blogger, it was a problem to have an extra long label. Your instructions were perfect!
Glad, that this post helped you :)

The option "remove labels" does not appear in my drop-down menu. Now what?
Hi all. Look, i think i desperately need help!!! I have tried in all possible ways, but labels from posts won't go away, no way.

I only want labels to be presented in a gadget - in the sidebar. I don't want to have them visible under my posts. Is this possible? Regards / Jones
thanks, you've solved my problem
thank you so much ;)
this is very useful
Great, it Worked.
thanks
Hi,
I've developed a Python tool to remove labels from Blogger.
It is much faster than using the Blogger interface, especially when you have thousands of labels.
You can also specify a time interval for the tool to operate.
Check it out at: http://mybloggerutilities.blogspot.com/
that was such a help! thank you so much! Indeed blogger dashboard is not that user friendly.
That's what I needed! Although I'm not very computer savy and I had to look up how to label posts and delete labels I didn't know I had. If you wanted to be more user friendly you could explain that part or insert a link to it. Otherwise very helpful!
Thank's a lot.. :X
How to Move from many posts at once from one label to another???
First Select all the posts you want to move to a particular label and then click on the label you want to... from the drop down menu (label Actions) and then remove the previous label from the same drop down menu.
I stumbled upon your blog while finding out how to delete labels in blogger. Apparently, with the new blog look it's not that easy to delete labels now. I'm actually hoping you can teach me how. Thanks!
