To those that say "this doesnt work" or "button doesnt display" have you tried again recently?

I am using it and it's displaying and appears to work perfectly.

Anyone else seeing any problems with CoinWidget? Seems fine to me, I'd like to know if it's working fine for others please. Thank you

Hiya,

We have forked your code to add support for Quark.  http://www.reddit.com/r/QuarkCoin/comments/1xt8g4/developers_needed_can_someone_tweak_coinwidget_to/

If you want to commit it to your main CoinWidget.com options please go ahead.

Also, a Drupal module and a Wordpress plugin would be nice to have.

Hello! I created http://coinwidget.com/ , a new customizable Bitcoin Donation/Tip button generator. Here is what it looks like:

Here is what it looks like:


When you click on it this window is shown:


Features:
  • The 'Donate' , 'My Bitcoin Address', 'donations' and 'BTC' text can all be changed.
  • The counter can be hidden, show the number of transactions (default), or show the total amount received.
  • Hover over the QR icon in the bottom left to show a large scannable QR code.
  • The wallet with arrow icon is a bitcoin: URI compatible link.

Please share any ideas or suggestions you may have to improve on this widget. Thanks for viewing!


Sure.  Here you go.

Your widget directs those who click to a javascript program on your website.




What happens at that point is strictly determined by what the code does.  And we can examine that by typing the following into the command bar:

http://c.coinwidget.com/widget.js

which yields:

http://d1e4zb60eak76i.cloudfront.net/widget.js

Which could be A on 2013-01-01 and B on 2014-01-01.

So you redirect a person from a website  to coinwidget.com and then run a javascript to take money.

The person never knows what that javascript does and it could change, either by malicious intent or by your website being hijacked.

The simplest case would be to use a different QR code.
Im also looking for a Bitcoin Donate Widget, but I don't like the idea of sending my donors to an third party site of the programmer running javascript.

The operator of the external site may be honest,  but it's still javascript running on a third party site which he controls and not you.

suggestion: the popup and textfield should be wide enough to show the full bitcoin address

Is there a possibility that you can make this for LTC as well? Thanks!

Thank you for providing a useful donate button (script and graphics).

I do believe the method offered for use could be made more secure for the site operator.  Currently, your site has full access to replace the bitcoin address.  And without HTTP everywhere, there is the opportunity for a MITM to alter the contents, substituting the bitcoin address with another.  Being that these are for donations, I might not even realize that this is happening.

The javascript could be revised so that it could site on my host, or in the same .html as my page.  That would be safer.

This is very cool. Was looking for something like this but couldn't find any to desire my needs.
This however does, and I will place this on my website soon.

Thanks for sharing!

Is it possible to post a link to your BTC tip widget? For example onto a site that does not allow you to post widgets.

Seems like a pretty cool idea.
I've used a donate image + bitcoin link format to open up the wallet and fill in the address, so no fancy features like QR code or counters,  see my websites, either www.FreezingMoon.org or www.AncientBeast.com (at the very bottom).
Any chance for a bigger format widget like that? I might use it if so Smiley
