Jumbo Sized Slide in Sidebar Content Recommendation
Let's start with the most loved feature that is the upgraded content recommendation widget in the sidebar. The new sidebar widget includes huge jumbo sized images from the content recommended which instantly catch a visitor's eyes making them irresistible not to click on them thereby increasing user engagement. You can see the example in the very first image of this post. Beautiful isn't it? ☻ Also you can feature your best content in this widget as well thereby customizing what your users can see in this jumbo sized slide in sidebar.For example I have featured the Car that runs on Air as the featured recommendation. You can also customize the number of posts to show or hide in this widget using the addthis pro dashboard.
Tip: Make sure to use good quality images in your articles or posts namely good quality and small size as bigger file size or smaller image dimension tend to get blurry and distorted in the content recommendation
Recommended Content Scroll in Toaster
The slide content toaster is the twin display recommendations which is a upgraded feature of addthis smart layers which comes up when the user scrolls down the page and loads asynchronously without increasing your site's load time. It's basically the same feature as the scroll in recommendations from the free smart layers version but comes only with an additional recommendation. You can also control what to feature in this widget or hide some specific pages from getting recommended like the homepage or contact pages. You can also customize the number of recommendations displayed by the content toaster using the addthis pro dashboard. You can see the example here on this site when you scroll down the page.
