Can the GoodReads Reading Challenge widget be added to my MobileRead signature

edwdecarlo · 05-17-2013, 10:11 AM

I would like to add my Goodreads 2013 Reading Challenge widget to my MobileReads signature. I ran into issue when doing a Copy/Paste of the widget to my signature.

Has anyone been able to do this?

Thanks.

I don't think you'll be able to do it as the forum only supports bbcode (the square bracket formatting) and not straight html in your signature. If it was just a URL link, it may work. I think the widget might violate the length of signature standards as well, but I'm not sure on that one.

This should probably be pushed into the forum issues and questions section as I'm not sure the moderators and administrators follow threads here as much.

Some users here have done it this way:

Maybe this helps you a little bit. And yes, this should go into the "Feedback" section.

I was wanting to know how to get it the way the second link has it. That's how I'd like mine if it's possible. Thanks in advance for the help.
