Widgets are reusable items that can display a variety of data.

They can be added to Communico webpages and some have been developed to display in Communico Apps and Broadcast Shows.

All widgets can be exported and added to external webpages within iFrames.

There are 3 main widget types based on where the content comes from. We also have some flexible widgets which can be a mixture of these 3 types.

Nested widget

The Nested widget allows you to 'nest' widgets together in an accordion style view. In this example we have nested the button, FAQ, and Events widget. When a user clicks on the headers, the content will expand to show the nested widget, clicking on the header again will collapse the view.

HTML Widget

Using this widget you can get creative and write your own source code. Some examples of an HTML widget are creating  banners to display information on your website, creating custom headers, and more!
