I would like to share a quick update on the

Steemit Widget Generator
^{_and
the underlying plugin.}

You can now display price tickers on your website! Hooray!

It's not only for STEEM but for all crypto currencies listed on coinmarketcap.com as this is the source of data. I knew they already have their own widget generator but it isn't very much customizable in terms of layout and style.

By now my generator only supports the default design (not even condenser because there is no original model and I wasn't creative enough yet to come up with my own condenser-like design for a price ticker...) but I just thought a price ticker would be a useful addition that many website owners might want to use. I will add some more designs over time I guess. Actually it would be awesome if someone else has a little bit of time and wants to create and share an own design. You're very welcome!

Contribute your own design!

If you know HTML and CSS you can simply create an own design for everyone to use. All you have to do is create a static HTML structure with inline CSS, based on the options that are available of course and preferably for all the (now 6) widget types.
Just open JSFiddle or Codepen or whatever and start creating. Share the link in the comments and I will implement it if it gets more than 1 upvote except this single upvote is from me. :D
If you feel more comfortable with Photoshop or Gimp or... maybe Paint... feel free to submit a screenshot.

You can of course also fork the GitHub repository and submit a pull request if that's more your style.

1. Add the name of your template to this select:
   https://github.com/mktcode/steemit-widgets/blob/master/docs/generator.html#L75
2. Add your template with inline styles here:
   https://github.com/mktcode/steemit-widgets/blob/master/docs/generator.html#L416
   (id-attributes of the template tags must follow this pattern: id="steemit-<widget-type>-template-<template-name>".)
3. If you're not familiar with it already, learn Vue.js (Really! It's awesome!) and use v-* attributes to display elements according to the selected options.

Options and placeholders for the new ticker widget have been added to the documentation.

And as always...

Give me some feedback! If you experience any issues, find a bug or have suggestions PLEASE let me know!

That's it from me for now but stay tuned! There is more to come!

Have a nice day!
