Design Idea of the Day

Embed Design Idea of the Day on Your Website

Design Idea of the Day publishes a new feature every day. The image address never changes, but the picture behind it does, so you add the code once and your visitors see today's feature automatically.

How it works

Every day a new picture is published at one fixed address. Your page loads that address, so it always shows the current feature, and a click takes your visitors to Design Idea of the Day where the full story is told.

Prefer a script? Add one container and one script: the widget draws the style you choose with data-dotd-variant (image, cta or card), in the language of the script address when that language is available. If you cannot run scripts, use the HTML version of the same variant.

Variant A: image only

Today's picture, linked to Design Idea of the Day. The lightest option.

Variant C: Bootstrap card

A Bootstrap card with the picture, the title of the feature, a short paragraph and a call to action button. Your page needs Bootstrap.
