Linking Profile Pages Between the Spanish and English Websites

Linking Blogs

Ok, to start with, go to your main profile page (the one where you actually write your blog posts or upload pictures on, not the one you're linking to). Scroll down the page to your blog box and click “View All.” This will take you to a page that shows all your blog posts. At the very bottom left you will see a little square black RSS Feed icon. Click on it.

This will take you to a page that says something about “subscribing to this feed…”. Ignore everything on the page and just copy the page address located at the top of your browser in your address bar. It should look something like this:
http://www.ywammazatlan.com/profiles/blog/feed?user=oehdeferkc5j&am...

Ok, now go to the other website (Spanish if you were previously on the English one or vice versa) and sign into your profile page there. (If you haven’t set up your profile on this website yet, go to your email and follow the invitation that was sent to you there to set up your profile.) Once you’re on your profile page and have a custom theme set up (follow link in the My Page dropdown menu), scroll down your page until you see a box with the title RSS. Click the Edit button next to it. Change the Title from RSS to Blog, paste the previously copied address from your other profile into the URL line. Make sure Display is set to Detail View and you can choose how many items are displayed. Then click Save and within a couple of minutes you should see your blog posts from your other profile show up in this box under the title Blog (that’s assuming you actually have some blog posts on your other profile. If not, get working on it!!).

On another note, leave the actual Blog section of this profile empty. You’ll see the empty box when you’re signed in, but no one else will see it so it will look like your linked blog posts were originally on there. If people click on the blog captions to read more it will open a new browser tab and take them directly to the original blog page so they can read the full message.

Linking Photos

Linking uploaded photos is similar to linking blogs, but uses a slightly different method. Go to the My Photos box on your main profile page. If it’s set to Slideshow mode (found by clicking the Edit button and selecting Display: Slideshow), roll your mouse over the bottom of the pictures and the controls should pop up. There will be a little person icon (see pic below) on the right hand side that allows you to Share. If you click it, you will see some embed code. Click Copy. (you can close that box after).

Then go to the other website (Spanish if you were previously on the English one or vice versa) and sign into your profile page there. As per instructions above, if you haven’t set up your profile on this website yet, go to your email and follow the invitation that was sent to you there to set up your profile.) Once you’re on your profile page and have a custom theme set up (follow link in the My Page dropdown menu), scroll down your page until you see a box with the title Textbox. Click the Edit button next to it.

A typical text edit box will open up with a title and main text section. You can either leave the title blank or call it My Pictures or something. Then in the main text section paste the previously copied embed code and click Save. The box should quickly begin displaying a slideshow of your photos that looks identical to the one on your main page. As with the blogs, leave the actual My Photos box empty. Only you can see it when you’re signed in.
