	<title>Changes to the blog sign-in</title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>
<p>If you often leave&nbsp;comments on The One Show blogs you may notice that there's a new, blue, sign in button at the end of each blog.</p>
<p><img class="mt-image-right" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 20px 20px" height="300" alt="Detail fom the screen shown when your log-in has been updated" src="https://nontonwae.pages.dev/blogs/theoneshow/backstage/login_300.jpg" width="300" />There's a new button because the BBC has a new blog sign-in system called BBC iD. </p>
<p>So, from now on, if you add a comment to The One Show blogs you'll be prompted to upgrade your account(s). You only <strong>have to do it once</strong> and it should be a quick and easy process. </p>
<p></p>
<p>One note of caution: If you've got multiple BBC accounts, you'll only be able to upgrade one of them to BBC iD using your preferred username and email address.</p>
<p><strong>Not commented before?</p>
