Here’s how to get started finding and adding widgets to your sites from Widgetbox.
Find Widget
Widgetbox’s search, categories, ratings and reviews all help you find just the right widget.
Try Out Widget
Once you find a widget you like, configure it like you want. (For example, tune the following image widget to Big Bird.)
Install Widget
Click ‘Get Widget’. The widget is put on a panel (more on this later) and you install the panel on your blog or web page. If you have a TypePad blog, you install it visually using the TypePad widget placer. Other blogs are currently installed to by pasting a HTML snippet into the blog, though we are working to improve upon that.
Manage Your Widgets and Panels From One Convenient Location
You get a single place to manage and edit all your widgets and panels.
Edit Widget’s Settings and Blog is Updated Instantly
Edit your widget. (For example, tune the widget to Oscar the Grouch.) Your blog is updated instantly, without you having to edit a single line of HTML.
Add A Second Widget Instantly
Get another widget. It is placed on your panel. Your blog is updated instantly.
Control Your Widget via Blog Posts
Say you want your image widget to show a picture of whatever you’re blogging about, without having to go to Widgetbox to reconfigure it. It’s easy with Tag Aware Widgets. Learn More!
