Information: In the: root{...} section you can change the color of the header, icon, and width of the widget as you wish. Also, replace the left text which has been marked with the right to change the position of the widget so that it is on the right

Second step - Writing HTML code

There are two options for placing this HTML code, the first is the easiest on the Blogger Layout menu, add a new HTML widget in the sidebar, and paste all the HTML code below. The second is to paste all the HTML code below before the </body> tag, it's all the same, it's up to you which way you want to choose.
