Embedding a Widget on Wordpress
- Log into the admin section of your Wordpress site.
- Find the page you're looking to embed your Widget on and click on 'Edit'
- Locate the two tabs titled 'Visual' and 'HTML'. Click on the 'HTML' one
- Scroll down to where you want your Widget to be located
- Paste the code from Widgety into the page
- Click on Save Draft / Preview / Publish
NOTE: The <iframe> embed code is the preferred code for uses on Wordpress.
On Wordpress, a Widget tends to be a feature you're looking to add into your sidebar or footer, such as a calendar, or links.
- Log into the admin section of your Wordpress site.
- Hover over the 'Appearance' link on the sidebar and select 'Widgets'.
- Find the 'Text' Widget and click 'Add' or drag it where you want it to be located.
- Paste the Widgety embed code into the text field provided.
- Click on 'Save'
- Go to the editor of your website and select the page on which you want the Widget to be located.
- Click on the '+ Add' icon, and click on the 'More' tab located at the bottom of the list.
- From this new tab, click on the 'HTML Code' button. A grey box will appear on your page.
- Click on the new box, then click on the wheel icon that will have popped up above it.
- On this new 'HTML Settings' popup, make sure 'Code' is select.
- Paste the code from Widgety into the text box.
- Click 'Update'
After a few seconds, a preview of your Widget will show in the previously grey box. You may now move and resize the box to where you want it to be.
NOTE: Expanding the box the Widget is embedded in will only change the Widget dimensions if they are set to smaller height/width than the box.
- Go to the editor of your website, and select the page on which you want the Widget to be located.
- Click on the 'Build' tab at the top.
- From the left pane, drag the 'Embed Code' box onto your page.
- Click on this new box and paste the code from Widgety into it.
- Click on 'Publish'
NOTE: Weebly will not provide a preview of your Widget in Editor Mode. To view your Widget on the page, you will need to visit the page you have placed it on.
