Widgets in the Wordpress sidebar
Putting a widget in the sidebar of a Wordpress blog is very straightforward. From your Wordpress
admin page, go to Appearance > Widgets, and place a Text widget in your sidebar. Then, paste the
widget code into the body of that Text widget and click “Save.”

Putting widgets into Wordpress posts
Putting a widget in a Wordpress post is straightforward, with one catch...you need to be in “Text”
mode for this to work. While editing your post in “Text” mode, paste the widget code directly into
the body of your post and hit “Save.”
NOTE: Wordpress
automatically strips
any widget code
from a post if you
switch from “Text” to
“Visual” mode.
This is a Wordpress
“feature,” and not a
Swipp constraint.

Putting widgets in the Blogger sidebar
Putting a widget in your Blogger sidebar requires adding an HTML/JavaScript gadget to your sidebar
in the Layout editor, and then pasting the widget code into the “content” area of the gadget.
Click “Layout”
Choose HTML
gadget
After placing the
gadget in your
sidebar, edit the
gadget and paste
the widget code
