Creating a Widget

Creating a widget with Widget Studio is a quick and straightforward process. In just a few steps, you can design, configure, and deploy a customized widget ready to be embedded on any website. Follow the instructions below to get started and take full advantage of the seamless integration with Webprovisions for efficient distribution.

Step 2: Select a Template

Choose one of the available templates that best suits your needs, then click "Continue" to proceed.

Step 3: Name Your Widget

Assign a name to your widget. This name is for internal use only and helps you keep track of your widgets.
