Welcome again bloggers, today I am back with a new widget for blogger mobile site. I am doing this post on request of many bloggers who sent me messages about my trending post widget in mobile site. If you haven't seen it yet, visit 101Helper on mobile to see it live. Its a simple popular posts widget that is for desktop site with some Javascript and CSS modifications. So I have simply provided this widget with a tinny red trend button and also modified the images of widget so it has big thumbnails and you can scroll down for more posts. You can also add upto 10 posts which are updated automatically and you have to just set the values in Layout just like a simple popular posts widget but the updates can be seen only in mobile site.
Steps to install Pop up Trending Posts Widget in Blogger Mobile Site:
Step 1: Go to blogger and navigate to theme.
Step 2: Click on Edit HTML.
Step 3: Click on Jump to widget and select Blog1.
Step 4: Copy below code.
Step 5: Paste it just above this line <b:widget id='Blog1' locked='false' OR <b:widget id='Blog1' locked='true'
Keep in mind that your code should look similar to shown in the image above. In the above image the code in not in expanded form so If you find your code expanded then don't worry its fine unless you find any error while saving code in Step 6.
Step 6: Click Save theme button and use CTRL+F on your keyboard to open search box and search for </body>.
Step 7: Copy below piece of code and paste it just above </body> as shown in below image.
Step 8: Now again hit CTRL+F on keyboard and search for </head>.
Step 9: Copy below script and paste it just above </head>.
Step 4: Copy below code.
