Facebook Videos
Creating a Facebook Page (7:01)
Creating a basic Facebook Page for your organization is fairly easy. You first will need a Facebook account. The Facebook Terms of Service are such that you are only allowed to have one Facebook account. This is fine as the Facebook Page doesn’t reflect the account with which it is associated. I’ve created a short video (click on the image to the left) on the process to follow in creating a Facebook Page.
Creating a Facebook iFrame Application (8:31)
Creating a Facebook Application that incorporates an iFrame for use on a custom page tab on you Facebook Page is very powerful. This tool will allow you to display a web page within the Facebook Page tab. This makes it possible to control the content of that tab from outside Facebook and utilizing standard HTML and CSS coding as opposed to previously specialized versions, like FBML.
Adding a YouTube Video to your Facebook Page (4:29)
Do you have video content hosted on YouTube that you’d like to make available on your Facebook Page? Fortunately, this can be done and it isn’t that difficult. Click the image to the left to watch the video and/or continue along below.
First, I want to give HoneyTechBlog a shout out for their post on how to do this. Yes, I too surf for answers to questions as it really makes sense to not re-invest time in something someone else has figured out. This is why I try and pay back to the larger community by posting about things I’ve learned.
WordPress Videos
Adding a WordPress Plugin (6:04)
Perhaps you are new to WordPress or you are a site administrator and not the person who built the site. In any case, WEBphysiology has produced a video that will help you when it comes to adding a plugin to your site. Plugins are distinct pieces of code that can be added to a WordPress powered site to add functionality without having to re-invent the wheel. For some plugins that is all you need to do. For others there are options that may need to be defined to get everything set-up just the way you want them. Either way, the power and availability of plugins is just one of the great benefits of using WordPress as the publishing engine for any website.
Auto Thickbox Plugin by Semiologic (6:24)
Recently I was looking to update one of my websites to incorporate a feature that, when a user clicks an image or a link, would pop a window to display the image at full size. The typical term for this feature is “thickbox”. It’s a great look and also has the added benefit of keeping a user from navigating to another page.
Automatic WordPress Backup
I’m sure many of you have some sort of backup process that you follow for your WordPress powered websites but, if you don’t, there is a great plugin that you can utilize to ensure that, if a catastrophe were to beseech you, that you could recover from it. If you do have a back-up process I’d still recommend that you check out the awesome Automatic WordPress Backup plugin by Dan Coulter.
