Recent Droppers Widget

This guide explains how to add a Recent Droppers Widget like the one you see on the Entrecard blog.

WordPress

Option A

  1. In your Presentation tab, go to Widgets, and then add an RSS widget to your sidebar.
  2. Grab the url of your inbox RSS feed and paste it in to the RSS field of the widget.

Option B.

Because the default RSS widget is not very customizable, there is a plugin that many prefer to use.

  1. Activate the plugin
  2. Add a KB Advanced RSS widget to your sidebar, in your Widgets tab.
  3. Customize your RSS widget, and make sure to include the RSS url from your inbox.

For Blogger / Blogspot

  1. Go to Dashboard → Template → Page Element
  2. Select the “Add a Page Element” option on the sidebar
  3. Add the feed widget element
  4. Enter the RSS url from your inbox
  5. save changes

The Inbox RSS URL

The Inbox RSS url that you need to make all this work is found on your dashboard.

Just right-click on the orange RSS icon, and select “Copy Link Location” (in Firefox) or “Copy Shortcut” (in Internet Explorer) to copy the URL. Then paste it into an RSS widget as described above.
