How to integrate the SkypeMe-Button?

Post by Linus_Pauling »

Hi,

I am very new to this Blog and I'd like to know, how it is possible to integrate the SkypeMe-Button (or any other graphic link) into the sidebar?

It is simple html-code like this:

Code: Select all

<!--
Skype 'My status' button
http://www.skype.com/go/skypebuttons
-->
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://download.skype.com/share/skypebuttons/js/skypeCheck.js"></script>
<a href="skype:test?call"><img src="http://mystatus.skype.com/bigclassic/test" style="border: none;" width="182" height="44" alt="My status" /></a>
Could you please help me?

Thanx, Linus

Hi!

Yes, that is easily possible. Just go to your Serendipity Admin Interface, go to the "Configure Plugins" section. Then click on the link to install a new SIDEBAR plugin. Select the "HTML Nugget" from the list.

Then you can configure this HTML Nugget plugin and enter the HTML code you want to appear there. Be sure to enabled the "Disable Markup transformations" setting.

HJTH,
Garvin

Hm, I do only get the HTML-Code itself into the sidebar.

What I need is the graphical otput of the HTML-Code --> The SkypeMe-Button itself...

Do I get sth. wrong here?

Hi!

Yes, that is possible. Did you read my note about Markup transformations?

And if you are using the WYSIWYG editor, you need to switch into HTML source mode first. Do that via the "<>" Button.

Regards,
Garvin
