Widgets

Widgets define the sidebar content and the utility navigation for the site. They can be edited via the Appearance > Widgets option in the left side menu.

Widget Locations

There are three sidebar locations defined by Widgets.

  • Blog
  • News
  • Client Success

In addition, the utility navigation (upper red bar) is also defined by a widget.

These are found on the right side of the Widgets screen. Drag and drop widgets into the widget locations to populate your sidebars.

Widgets

There are four widget types that have been designed for IBE's use.

Page Promo Widget

This widget is a link to another page. It includes a title and content to catch the visitor's attention.

Social Links Widget

Add Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn and Vimeo links with the Social Sharing Widget. You can order the links whichever way you'd like and do not need to include links for all sites.

When this widget is used in the Utility Navigation, leave the title option blank.

Contact Widget

Display contact information with the contact widget.

Twitter

To display a Twitter feed, use a Custom HTML Widget, and generate the code on https://publish.twitter.com/.

It should look something like this

<a class="twitter-timeline" href="https://twitter.com/WisconsinSBDC?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">Tweets by WisconsinSBDC</a> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

To only display a certain number of tweets, add data-tweet-limit="1" right after class="twitter-timeline".
