Installing Widgets on Your Blogger blog


Installing Widgets on Your Blogger blog

Once you start looking at other blogs (and you should be to learn how to format your own), you’ll notice cool-looking widgets that you may want to install on your Blogger blog. How the heck would I install something like that? you may be thinking. It’s very, very easy. You see, rather than having to actually go into the template and fiddle with HTML, Blogger allows you to add a number of items to your blog–and takes the guess-work out of it for you.

Usually, widgets will have an install code. Click on a desired widget to visit the site to get your own and look for a snippet of code. Run your mouse over the code to select it or right-click and hit “Select All” then press “Copy.” Once the code is highlighted, return to your blog and go to Layout.
How to Install Widgets
  • At Navbar, click on “Add a Gadget.”
  • Scroll down until you come to HTML/JavaScript
  • Select that and paste the code into the box
  • You can choose a title for the top part of the box
  • Press “Save” and you are done!
Check out your blog to see your new widget, proudly showing itself off in your blog’s sidebar!
Installing a widget on your Blogger blog is easy, thanks to the handy HTML button.
  • Take a deep breath and reward yourself by going out for some pizza. You are joining the ranks of dedicated, pizza-loving bloggers.
Once you get on to the process, installing widgets can be one of the neatest aspects of blogging
