How to Customize
Where to find the code?
If you’ve installed the widget by clicking “Add to Blogger” you’ll need to locate the code in order to make customizations. In order to find the html go to the blogger dashboard>Layout. Click “edit” on the “HTML/Javascript” gadget.
Enter your facebook username
Search for http://www.facebook.com/theblogwidgets and replace it with your site’s facebook page URL.
Change the 10 Second Time Delay
By default the widget pops up 10 seconds after the page finishes loading. Search for the code below and change the number 20000 to a greater or lesser number.
1 second = 1000. 10 seconds = 10000. 60 seconds = 60000.
1 |
.delay(10000) |
Popup every time the page loads
By default, the like box widget only shows up the first time the user visits your page. If you would like the facebook box to popup every time the page loads, then remove this line of code:
1 |
$.cookie('popup_user_login', 'yes', { path: '/', expires: 7 }); |
Display only when user visits your homepage
You can do this by surrounding the widget code with these conditional tags below. Go to Template > Edit HTML. Now search for the </body> tag. Place the facebook popup widget right above this body tag. Make sure to include the conditional tags below.
1 |
<b:if cond='data:page.type == "index"'>REPLACE-WITH-FACEBOOK WIDGET-CODE-HERE </b:if> |
Having trouble seeing the facebook widget?
By default, this facebook like box widget is only displayed once every 30 days. You may need to delete your cookies if you would like to see it again. Or check out the “How to Customize” section above, in order to display the widget every time a user visits your site.
If you’re still having trouble with the popup widget, please leave a comment below. I am happy to help you!
