Facebook integration

Can anyone tell me how this TM site has added Facebook to their home page? It looks like the editor has some functions that allow this, but I'm having no luck with them. I did not find anything in the help section, so...

The editor has two modes of operation, standard visual view and source view.
Source view is like a blank slate without any assistance that allows you to insert HTML. You are basically totally on your own with that, but you can do things without the constraints of the editor visual view.
Most of these fancy features have been created using source view. You can use it, but having a very basic understanding of HTML will increase your odds of being successful with it.
The facebook thing is an iframe based widget that they likely got the html code for from the Facebook developers page.

YES.. you get the code from FB (I have both FB and Twitter feeds on ours -
154.toastmastersclubs.org
) and put it in the source code where you want it to display. Easy as pie IF you understand what you are looking at when you edit using SOURCE instead of WYSIWYG.

Would you be willing to share the source code from Club 154 home page with me so I can have a starting point? It would be easier than reinventing the wheel.
I really like what you've done with your clubs first page and it's not exactly what we are trying to do, but probably has sufficient examples of different coding options to allow us to jump start the effort.

Elizabeth, please do not post your email address in the open forums, as you make yourself vulnerable to spammers. There are programs that scan websites looking for email addresses to put in spam mailing lists. If you need to send someone an email address on here, please use a Private Message for that.
