Add Games to Your Toolbar | Community Toolbar

The Web is full of game applications, and the best way to link to them is by creating a gadget (or widget) that opens the game in a floating gadget window. Users can drag the window wherever they want on their browser and keep surfing the web while they play.

To save you the time of finding games online and “gadgetizing” them, we have some games already prepared for you. Just follow these simple steps to add them to your Community Toolbar. In this example, we'll add a Games menu with links to a Game Gadget from the Conduit Gallery.

To add Games to your Toolbar

In the Toolbar tab, choose the Button with Menu component from the list

Select an icon for the component, or if you'd rather, upload your own image of a games icon. (If you don't have one, visit the Icon Gallery for some samples, save an icon you like to your computer, and then upload it during this step.)

Click Edit next to the Your Menu item to start building the drop-down menu.

Enter the title of the menu and click Save. This text will appear on your toolbar next to the icon. You can also add a tooltip or "Hint."

Now it’s time to add the first link to the menu. The link will open a game as a floating gadget window.

Click Gadget

Define the parameters for the Gadget link:

Item name: the name of the game you will link to.

URL: The URL of the game gadget. See the table below for some popular games from our Gallery.

Give the Width and Height for the floating gadget window. The optimal size of each game is also shown in the table below.

Hint and Image: If you wish, use these fields to add a mouseover tooltip and an icon for this link.

Click Save in the pop-up window and once again on the main page.

To add more game links to your menu at any time, go to the Toolbar tab, and in the image of your Community Toolbar at the top of the page, move your mouse over the Games menu you added. In the drop-down menu, click Edit. Then repeat step #5 above.

To start you off, here's a list of some popular games gadgets that you can add to your Toolbar.
