 Page Widgets: Overlay External/Custom content on your pages

  • Any external content like websites, videos or scripts can be embedded to overlay your pages
  • From youtube videos, to facebook "like" buttons, to twitter feeds and linkedin shares, we've got some great widgets already built for you.  You just need to set some fields to get these displaying right on your pages
  • Choose the platform you want or don't want the widget to display. Don't show flash widgets on mobile devices which can't load flash OR target an advertisement widget to tablet users.  You've got a lot of flexibilty with this tool.
