Recent Widget Blogger Post with Beautiful Thumbnails

Recent Post is a new post Widget in a Blog to make it easier for visitors to discover the latest articles. Not only use text but drawing attention can add images. There are many tutorials but sometimes we confusion when we have to edit the HTML inside.

I've previously shared an article on how to create the latest post Widget in Blogger using images. You can see on the Desktop version the right side of this Blog. Display the Thumbnail or the picture of the box and can look to the list of previous posts without having to open a new one.



For this new version, it looks a bit unique and beautiful. The thumbnail image is visible on the right and rounded. For those of you who have installed it in Blogger is quite easy and does not need to go into the Blogger HTML. Please follow the settings below and note the instructions I provide.

Recent Blogger Post with beautiful thumbnails Widget

Step 1: Please sign in to the Dashboard Blogger, select Layout and then click Add a Gadget to display on the right side.

Step 2: Select and click the + sign (HTML/JavaScript)

Step 3: Write on the Julul "Recent Posts". In the content please fill out the Script I have archived below.
