Ok, so you have added a few testimonials and taken the big step towards getting those testimonials listed on your website by creating a widget, but how do you know what it will really look like without trying it out for real on your own website? How can you adjust the size, the text colour, background colour and overall composition of the widget without risking it on your site first?
We have now implemented a widget-preview facility, which will display your widget just as it should appear when added to your website. To try it out, log in to your Vouchforthis account, go to your My Widgets page, and then select the Preview link next to the widget you want to take a look at.
[Not sure what we're talking about here? If you haven't yet added any vouchforthis testimonial widgets, you will need to log in and then go to your My Widgets page and click the New Widget button. Then you can create a widget that you will then be able to paste into your website to conveniently display the testimonials you have added to Vouchforthis. Not added any testimonials yet? Ah, testimonials are the raw material you need to add to your Vouchforthis account in order to get it working for you. To add a testimonial, log in to your account and then go to the My Testimonials page and click the New Testimonial button.]
Once you have clicked on the Preview link next to your widget, you will see a full page that shows you how your widget will appear when added to your website. This show the actual width of the widget that you have chosen, all of the component colours (text, border, background) and the actual testimonials that will be included in it. Note that as you add more testimonials to vouchforthis over time they will automatically get included in your widgets, which means that the web pages that your widgets are used in will also be updated. How convenient is that?
If you don’t like how your widget looks then you can just click on the Back To Edit button to go straight to the edit widget page where you can adjust it and try again.
