eCatholic

When adding widgets that have drop-down menus (such as the Login widget), make sure the Text/HTML content space is sized appropriately so that the drop-down menu is not cut off.

After adding Widgets to your eCatholic site, we recommend opening a new browser window in Incognito mode to view and test your Widgets. Otherwise, you must fully log out of all eCatholic windows in order to view your newly added Widgets properly.

Subsplash

Unfortunately, Subsplash does not support Widgets. However, some churches have had success using Widgets with Subsplash when they don't apply any CSS. You can follow the instructions in the Quick Start guide and see if it works for your church!

To use Widgets with Weebly CMS:

• When adding the Widget to your Weebly website, make sure you add <div></div> tags around the Widget code.

Wordpress

To get Widgets up and running using Wordpress CMS:

• We recommend taking advantage of the option to place the shared script in an element that appears on every page (for example, in your website header) to avoid having to add that script to each and every page where a will Widget live.
• When adding specific Widgets to Pages, place them in block type "custom HTML".
• If preferred, switch from "Visual Editor" to "Code Editor".
• We've added a Header/Footer plugin so that a header displays on each page.
