WordPress Tutorial - Use Text Widget to Customize Sidebar 2

This is PART TWO of the Intermediate level WordPress tutorial that shows how to use a text widget to customize a WordPress sidebar. To see the final product of the tutorial in the Business Blogging 101 website and the HTML code used in this example, go to http://mcbuzz.wordpress.com and search for "text widget".Widgets are a very useful feature of most new WordPress themes. They allow you to add custom content to your sidebars with little or no knowledge of HTML or other code. The example I use in this tutorial shows how to create a custom text box with a short biographical note and part of that text is a link.In this PART TWO of the tutorial, I show how to insert an image into the same custom sidebar box, along with a LinkedIn profile "badge".You can use these techniques to put whatever you want into your own WordPress sidebar.
