Pretty simple, huh? But, what if you wanted to change the widget so it looks better on your site or you don't want to display all the information above?
Customize the Widget
You can quickly customize the widget by using our predefined options on the preview page. You can choose to not show the news & discussion lines or not to show all any of the detailed information like Location, Latest Funding, etc. A few, quick checks can give you just the right amount of information you want.
You can futher customize the widget to suit your needs with CSS. CSS brings you the power to change the font, background or layout of our widgets, but we've also made it convenient to hide any elment you want.
As an example we may want to hide the detailed information from the widget. You can accomplish this by adding the following line to you CSS file:
.tradevibes_details { display: none; }
Now the next time you view our widget it will look like this:
