As the title says, having the embed code on the node itself would make it much easier to access. How would I do that? Thanks!

I am open to suggestions on the best way to approach this. The complication is that a widget may have more than one embed code as additional formats are supported. I am thinking that providing a block with the embed code may work best for now. This will allow the user to control the visibility of the block.

Yep, a block would be fabulous, hopefully there's a block per format with a textfield to write custom descriptive text.

just to get it clear. One block for all formats (with tabs or ajax load)?

or

one block for every widget format?

Version: 6.x-2.0-alpha1 » 6.x-2.x-dev

In the latest dev version, the widget tab has been removed and a block has been created. Currently, there is only one format available (iframe), so a decision hasn't been reached on whether there should be one block for every format. The problem I see with having one block per format is that some widgets may not be compatible with all formats. Then, if a user only enables the block for one format, it will never be displayed for incompatible widgets, which may cause confuse.

I'm expecting to have another official release this week, so any input is appreciated.
