Widgets in the Wordpress sidebarPutting 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 postsPutting 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 sidebarPutting 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 HTMLgadget
After placing the gadget in your sidebar, edit the gadget and paste the widget code into content area

Putting widgets in Blogger postsPutting a widget in a Blogger post is crazy-simple. Just paste the widget code into the body of your post in “HTML” mode and save the post.
