Widgets and Plugins
To help promote the National Bloggers Blood Drive, we will always have updated banner displays available that we will serve to you. You can save the “I need YOU to give blood” jpg and host it yourself OR you can use one of the following scripts or wordpress plugins. By using the script or plugin, your blog will always display the updated banner (advertising the date of the next blood drive event).
We strongly recommend and would appreciate for you to install the plugin or use the script!
WordPress Plugin
We have built a WordPress plugin that is widget enabled to make it super easy for you to install and use! To download the plugin, click here.
If you want to use the plugin but not use the widgetized features, you can edit your sidebar template and enter the following code:
<?php nbbd_output();?>
Script Option
If you don’t use WordPress or don’t want to use the plugin, you can still show the dynamic banner by simply pasting the following script into your sidebar.
<center><a href=”http://theserenityfoundation.org/national-bloggers-blood-drive/”><img src=”http://theserenityfoundation.org/widget/TSFBlood.jpg” alt=”National Bloggers Blood Drive” /></a></center>
We appreciate you helping to spread the word about the blood drive project!

I can not get the script option to work on my blogspot site. Do you have any ideas? I just copied and pasted it to the html option.
kimberlee - I just tried doing the same thing, their html option actually screws up the script whenever you save it. I tried editing it several times and it just made a mess of it each time. Over the weekend I’ll set up a web service that will let it work on there, check back on Monday, I should have it up. Thanks for trying to install it!
It looks like the quotes are getting messed up. Change the quotes to ” instead of the ones that are pasted into your blogspot site. (I hope that makes sense)
Good Luck.
Not sure if this will work:
Sorry about the spam. The quotes are getting messed up. so Just retype them after you paste the code into your blogspot. This will work until Phil gets the web service up.
I just tried the download link for the plugin and got this error:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function add_action() in /home/phil801/public_html/theserenityfoundation/widget/wp-nbbd.php on line 48
I’ll use the script for now, but you’ll probably want to fix that
Whoah! Good catch Gary! The link was pointed to the php file instead of the zip, just fixed it, thanks for noticing!
