• You need to give the gadget a unique name. For now lets just name it Tweak.
• Now go to Edit HTML.
• Expand widgets and search for (Ctrl+F) Tweak.

• HTML/javascript Widgets:

<b:widget id='HTML1' locked='false' title='Tweak' type='HTML'>

• Only On Homepage:

<b:includable id='main'>
<b:if cond='data:blog.url == data:blog.homepageUrl'>

• Only On Post Pages:

<b:includable id='main'>
<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == "item"'>

• Specified Page:

<b:includable id='main'>
<b:if cond='data:blog.url == "Blog Post URL"'>
