Now switch to HTML view and copy the below HTML code and add your own code inside the <pre> Tag. 

HTML

<!--[ Code Box 1 ]-->
  <div class='K2_CBox'>
    <div class='CB_Heading'>
      <span>HTML</span>
      <button id='copy1' class='C_box_main' onclick="copyC('copy1','code1')">

  @media screen and (max-width:500px){.tNtf span{margin-bottom:20px;left:20px;right:20px;font-size:13px}}
  @keyframes slideinwards{0%{opacity:0}20%{opacity:1;bottom:0}50%{opacity:1;bottom:0}80%{opacity:1;bottom:0}100%{opacity:0;bottom:-70px;visibility:hidden}}

  .darkMode .tNtf span{box-shadow:0 10px 40px rgba(0,0,0,.2)}
  </style>
<div id='toastNotif' class='tNtf'></div> 
<script>/*<![CDATA[*/ function copyC(e,t){var o=document.getElementById(e),n=document.getElementById(t),e=getSelection(),t=document.createRange();e.removeAllRanges(),t.selectNodeContents(n),e.addRange(t),document.execCommand("copy"),e.removeAllRanges(),o.classList.add("copied"),document.getElementById("toastNotif").innerHTML="<span>Copied to Clipboard!</span>",setTimeout(()=>{o.classList.remove("copied")},3e3)} /*]]>*/</script>

Now your code box is added to your Blogger website with the copy to clipboard button. If you want to add multiple code boxes on a single page then you have to copy the HTML code again and change the id on it. 

If you are using HTML or Javascript code then have to parse the code before adding it to the pre-tag, otherwise, the code box will not show it properly. 

So, you can use a Free HTML parse tool to convert your codes and then paste them inside the pre-tag. ( <pre> Your_code_Here </pre> )

You can also further customize the code box by changing the background color, box shadow effects, etc.  You can get a variety of Box shadow effects here. 

If you have any trouble during this process, then I recommend you watch the video carefully. Otherwise, you can ask in the comment section or in our Telegram Group
