Hi Susan,

Thanks for dropping by the other day and leave me with wonderful comments. I reply the comment and say to myself to leave a comment at your blog later when I finish with all the tasks that needed my utmost attention. Guess what? OMG, I totally forgotten about it and realised about it when I visited Tara Dipalma’s blog just now.

I saw your comment and hop over via her blog. I am happy you got started with video. I just read Tara’s PDF on how to put up a video and creating video will be next on my agenda. Anyway, I love reading this post because you inspire me to reinforce my plan to put up a video on my blog. So, I got no more excuses to give but get out of my comfort zone and get going.

Now back to your question on how to put the F500 button to the sidebar that you ask in my blog the other day. First of all, you copy the code of the button.
- Go to your wp-admin and click theme.
- Click theme editor.
- click footer.php if you want to add it to the bottom of your blog page or sidebar if you want to put it at sidebar.
-paste the code and save the file.
- refresh your site and it is visible.

Hope that helps and if you still have any questions, drop me a comment and will walk you through.

Keep in touch always.

Sincerely,
Jeffrey

Hi Susan
Thanks for stopping by my blog and leaving those great comments. I am doing my best to get my blog higher in Google.

Well done for getting your video finished. I think youtube has a facility which is called “captions and subitiles” which may allow you to add your website address. I haven’t used it myself yet so I am not sure.

I will go and take a look at your video and leave you a comment
Well done!
Steve

Hi Susan

Quick question – you mentioned a plug-in on Garry’s blog that automatically embeds videos on blog and you gave the link. Can you tell me exactly where I put this info on my blog to make it work please.

Thanks

Wendy Wood

Hi Wendy –

The WordPress plugin is called Smart YouTube. Simply download it from the WordPress site, unzip it, upload it to your wp-admin area and then go to yopur admin panel back office. Look for the “plug-ins” tab, scroll down until you find Smart YouTube. Click Activate.

Now when you add a YouTube video, simply snag the url, add a “v” after the http bit (so it becomes httpv://youtubeurlwhateveritis) and just insert this into your post. The plugin then goes and gets the video and puts it in where you’ve typed the URL. It really is that simple. Hope this helps!

Susan

Hi Susan

Thanks very much for your help with the Smart YouTube Plug-in upload. I am pleased to say I’VE DONE IT. My vid is now on my blog. Wow. Haven’t we come a long way. One day, I’ll be able to answer someone else’s questions.

All the best to you.
