Idealist badge

Idealist badge
You can add Idealist listings on your site in the form of a small snippet of HTML. Simply search for the listings that you'd like to see on your site. On the top of the search results page you'll see a link that says "Add this search to your site". Click it and choose the layout for your badge. Take the HTML the wizard generates and paste it into the HTML of your blog or website. That's all there is to it!


Generate a search form for your site
Enhance your website or blog by adding a customized Idealist search tool. You can pick the category (jobs, events, etc.), area of focus, and location, and you can also give your users the power to choose these options from your site. Try out the wizard below and create your own.

These are examples of how some organizations are using the HTML web wizard to add listings from Idealist members to their websites. If you have implemented this feature and would like to see your website here, please email dave@idealist.org.


Link to your Idealist listings
When you post a job, volunteer opportunity, event, or other Idealist listing, it's posted on our website and sent to our users, but most organizations forget that you can easily link to your profile and listings. By doing so, your job postings, volunteer opportunities, and more are always current on your website, without the hassle of updating it to reflect your Idealist postings.

How to add links to your site:
If your organization is already listed on Idealist, all you have to do is log in, click on the organization you've associated yourself with, and click on "Power Your Website" on the right side. You'll come back to this page, but if you scroll down you'll see the links there waiting for you.
