Including Social Account Information on Individual and Organization Profiles

netFORUM Pro users can now link the following accounts to their netFORUM Pro Individual and Organization profiles from both eWeb and iWeb:

• Facebook
• LinkedIn
• Twitter
• Google+
• Flickr
• YouTube
• SlideShare

Keep in mind, when entering your social account user name, the URL for the social handle is parsed from the user name entered.

For example, if the user name scott.driver.7543 is entered in the Facebook field, when the Facebook hyperlink on the profile page is clicked, the Facebook URL <www.facebook.com/scott.driver.7543> is automatically created from the user name scott.driver.7543.

In the screen shot below, note how the completed URL automatically displays in the status bar at the bottom of the browser window when the Facebook hyperlink is moused over.
