- border color of the green circle, replace #bada55
- distance between date and post, change the -190px value from margin-left
Step 4. Click the "Save template" button to save the changes. That's it!
Now you've applied a new style to the date header of your Blogger posts. Please note that codes vary from template to template and if you have a custom template, there might be a different CSS selector for the date header.
