How do you get widgets working,then?
Reply Quote
Hello,

I'm new to this Justgiving experience and despite having read the 'how to use a widget' instructions quite a few times,I still cannot get the widget code to convert once I've pasted it onto a profile in a website.

Please help!

All the best,

Si.

The widget is HTML code that embeds an image (taken from the Justgiving site) and information onto another web page.

You mentioned specifically a profile.  Can you share which website that is you are using?

Using it in a profile is possible, but only if you are allowed to embed HTML in that profile and they allow cross-site traffic (to get the image from JustGiving on their web-site).
Quite correctly, many sites do not allow one or either, because some HTML could be potentially harmful (I am not clever enough to do that but some people are) and you could be generating a lot of traffic that uses up their bandwidth.  In the worst case, people could be including malicious software as a download and then the website could be blamed.

I have attempted using the widget code on a couple of Photography sites where I have profiles but it has failed on both.
But just to prove it can be done, here is one I prepared earlier: http://www.cullen.org/family/tzc_swimfit.php5

Good luck
