If you have any other questions about the website email Cole Erickson\u00a0(unix nde1).<\/p>\n

Posting to the music blog<\/h2>\n

To post to the website, log in here<\/a> with your Williams account using your unix as your username. Once logged in, look to the tabs in the menu on the left side of the screen and click the “Posts” tab. From there click “Add New.”<\/p>\n

To link URLs, highlight the text you want to be a link, click the underlined “link” button, and paste your URL where indicated. For pictures\/other media, click the “Add media” button and drag and drop your media file where indicated. You can also enter the URL of the media you wish to insert and it will appear on your page.<\/p>\n

Embedding external content<\/h3>\n

In order to embed content from SoundCloud<\/a>\u00a0or 8tracks<\/a>, use the WmsInclude<\/code> tag.\u00a0Here is the code you need:<\/p>\n

[WmsInclude url=\"YOUR LINK HERE\" height=\"400\" width=\"600\"<\/code>]<\/p>\n

The height<\/code> and width<\/code> values change the dimensions of the embedded content. The values are pixel counts. Make sure that the url<\/code> is the link to the content itself, not the page on which the content is featured.<\/p>\n

For exampel, say that you want to embed this mix<\/a>. You do not want to use the link at the top of the page because that will embed the entire webpage. Instead, click the “Share” button and copy the embed code. This code will contain a link that begins with http:\/\/w.soundcloud.com<\/code>. The link that you want in that long string of stuff is the the entire link in quotes where it says src=\"YOUR LINK\"<\/code> ending in visual=true<\/code>. The final result will look like this:<\/p>\n
