Widget auto-updation and Backlinks issue

Phydeaux3 discovered that Blogger Beta auto-updates the widget templates. When you click on "Expand widget templates", the code that you see for a particular widget might vary slightly from time to time. Pete from Blogger clarified that they use this to fix the bugs. I think that's a great idea. But the downside is that this auto-update doesn't happen for the widgets that you have hacked.

Phydeaux3 found that his Backlinks stopped working after one such update because he had hacked the Blog widget. I checked my blog and it was the same case too. It's a good idea to check your blog also (specifically if you applied peekaboo posts hack). If you have the problem, here's the fix that worked for me.

Search for 'backlinks-container' in your template to find this portion of code and add the lines in red. This is the update from Blogger that didn't make it to my template.

<div id='backlinks-container'>

   <div expr:id='data:widget.instanceId + "_backlinks-container"'>

      <b:if cond='data:post.showBacklinks'>
        <b:include data='post' name='backlinks'/>
      </b:if>

   </div>

</div>

In future, I will keep an eye on such updates and inform you if you need to make any change.

UPDATE: If you downloaded one of my hacked templates, this change is already incorporated in it.
