Pinterest Widgethttps://business.pinterest.com/en/widget-builder#do_pin_it_buttonPinterest has got a few good choices for building widgets to your website. Pin WidgetProfile WidgetBoard Widget - I particularly like this one because I can rotate the type of boards I put on my site per month and see what interests people that visit.

So, let's do a Board widget. You need to go to your account and find the board that you want to display.Pin teresting. Click on the board and that will take you to the respective url.

Pinterest Widget (Cont.)https://www.pinterest.com/SocialMediReach/pin-teresting/ And when you are ready and decided on the layout, just go ahead and press the BUILT IT button and that will give you the code that you need to copy and paste.https://developers.pinterest.com/pin_it/ For example you can do a pin widget and add it to your blog post. It is just one more way of attracting people to add your own pins and make them viral. You can then check in your Pinterest analytics how that pin is performing. But that is a subject for another presentation.

Troubleshooting:• Check width of the widget area to accommodate the size of the social plugins.• Inspect the element source code for any errors or width dimensions of sidebar.• Delete cache in browser and also within WordPress.• If the Social box does not appear on your sidebar, you can look at the code side

by side and compare it to another that is working. (Please see picture below for this example)

• Inside WordPress dashboard name your text widget boxes so that is easier to see which social box belong to which position on the sidebar.
