Yes, that column on the side of your blog is great for streaming your twitter feed or archiving past posts, but why not spice it up by adding a PunchTab Giveaway… because NOW, our Giveaway Widget is available for your sidebar.
This new version of the Giveaway Widget gives you the same functionality as it’s bigger counterpart, but instead of letting it sit in a blog post that might get pushed down your page, you can now share a winning opportunity with your readers and fans right along side your awesome content.
And don’t worry, you don’t need to be a coding genius to make it happen. Like everything at PunchTab, we’ve simplified. We’ve got the tips and tricks for all this stuff right in our knowledge base, but since you’re here, we’ll share the answers to the test.
How can I make the giveaway widget smaller?
All you need to do is add the parameter ?width=auto at the end of your giveaway snippet, as following:
<script src="//www.punchtab.com/mast/XXX/giveaway_widget.js?width=auto"></script>
Your giveaway will then take the width of the container (minimum: 250px, maximum: 400px).
Here is an example:
<div id="my_sidebar">
<script src="//www.punchtab.com/mast/XXX/giveaway_widget.js?width=auto"></script>
</div>
The giveaway widget will fit the width of the #my_sidebar div.
