Registering and Getting The Code

If working correctly, the next step is to get the code. Now you will need the code in order to place the widget on your myspace page or other website of your choice.

Before getting the code the next step in the creation of your widget offers you the chance to líst your widget in the blidget gallery. I opted for this and you will probably want to do so as well. It can only add to your exposure. Add keyword tags and clíck 'publish blidget'.

You will then be asked to register if you do not already have an account. Don't worry, the service is absolutely frëe. By registering you will be able to come back and make as many widgets as you want and add them to your account for editing.

Once you have registered you will now be taken to a another page with several options . Near the top you will see the title of the widget (example: AC Media) on the far right of the title clíck the green button that says 'get widget'.

 

Placing The Widget On Websites

A drop down líst opens up for you to choose where to place the widget. You will see there are many choices. If you are placing your widget on myspace, for example, choose that selection. You will be asked for your myspace email and password, along with what section you want the widget to be placed. Widgetbox.com will automatically place the widget on your myspace page in the section you desire.

Perhaps you want to place the widget on a site that is not listed. In this case you would choose the section that says, 'get code'. There will be two choices to choose from, a javascrípt and a flash scrípt. At this point you may have to experiment to see which code will work on the site you are attempting to place the widget.

Many sites do not allow javascrípt. If you are working on your own webpages you can probably use the javascrípt code. Copy and paste the code in your website's html, save and upload your page as usual. The widget should work fine.
