Features

This template comes with a these extra features:

SEO optimized page title, as explained in SEO friendly Blogger page title.
Auto read more (expandable post) with thumbnail
Auto read more on multi-post pages. The most notable benefit of this feature is the improvement on loading speed of multi-post pages. This auto read more is faster than your typical auto read more with thumbnail since it doesn’t use Javascript, it uses Blogger generated 72px x 72px thumbnails (instead of resizing big images into thumbnails) and it only loads short snippets instead of whole posts.
The most recent post display in full on homepage
On homepage, the most recent post will appear in full, to make it stands out from the rest of posts. You can limit how much content to show on homepage by applying Blogger’s jump-break.
Header for label-search and archive pages
Comes with page header at the top of label-search and archive pages. The purpose is to tell a visitor what label page or archive page he/she is currently viewing. In case of a label page, it replaces the ugly default “Showing newest posts with label XXXX" status message.
Clutter-free static pages
Sidebars and footers are removed from static pages. The post area is then widened to fill up the entire page width.
Fully customizable using Template Designer
Tinted Panes allows you to customize the layout, number of columns, widths, fonts, backgrounds and colors right from the inside of the Template Designer.
You are allowed to change almost every setting in Template Designer, with one exception –DO NOT SWITCH TO ANOTHER TEMPLATE (Template Designer > Templates). Changing the template will reset it to Blogger default settings and will remove the added features.

How to install

Copy Simply Faster template code from this page.
Go to Design > Edit HTML (New interface: Template > Edit HTML).
Right-click inside the code window, Select All and paste in the code.
Preview before saving.
To keep your existing widgets, click Keep Widgets button.
View your blog.
Rearrange the widgets if necessary.

This template is free to use, as long as the attribution (that links back to this post and http://www.bloggersentral.com/) is kept intact.

Enjoy!

Asif Icbal, February 5, 2012 3:42 PM: I have a little problem. I could not see more than 200 comments in the following page:

http://govtorder.blogspot.in/p/ask-question.html

I also do not want threaded commenting system. Please give me code for blogger old commenting system with 200+ comments. Please help me soon.
Greenlava, February 6, 2012 9:45 PM: @Asif Icbal
Set the Per-Post Comment Feeds to None. that should disable the threaded comments and restore the 200+ comment pager.
Asif Icbal, February 7, 2012 2:14 AM: thank you so much. it worked perfectly.
Anne Lyken-Garner, February 12, 2012 1:01 AM: I want to do this with my blog. However, I have a question, would it undo my customisations I've already implemented? For example I have a split header (done from your tutorial) and have customised the template so that the post title shows up before the blog name (again from your tutorial). I'm sorry if this is a silly question but I'm a writer and not very good with the tech stuff.

Please let me know so I can move on with implementing this on my blog. It's very annoying that I can't set my posts to thumbnail on my present template.
Pastaarj, February 12, 2012 6:20 PM: Thank you for this very fast template!

Info: I got the error code bX-yqk3n1 too ! I had to return to older blogger interface and that was installed perfectly! (now i'm back in new without any problem!)

Just a question: Could you say me how I can recover the blogger nav-bar?

Thanks
Greenlava, February 13, 2012 11:24 AM: @Anne Lyken-Garner
Yes it would undo all your previous customizations.
BTW if showing thumbnails on multi-post pages is what you want, you might want to read Blogger Auto Read more with thumbnail.
Greenlava, February 13, 2012 11:44 AM: @Pastaarj
To recover the navabar read How to remove or restore Blogger navbar.
