How to link to your Scootle Community profile from your own blog.

You may notice that the "Find Me" button on the right of this page has a Scootle logo. If you're an Australian teacher registered to Scootle, then you can logon to Scootle Community. Clicking on the button will take you straight to my Scootle profile.

Would you like to do this too?

There are a couple of steps involved depending on your level of time, expertise and enthusiasm. If you need more help, feel free to contact me on Scootle Community.

1. Go to your Scootle Community profile by clicking on your name. 
2. Highlight and copy the URL in the browser address bar to the clipboard (Ctrl-C or Cmd-C)
3. Pick one of the buttons below that suits your blog, download it (right click and Save Image As...) Upload it to your blog in the usual way. You can change the size to suit your blog.
4. Select the picture and add a link - just paste (Ctrl-P or Cmd-P) the link you saved to the clipboard.
5. Test it out. 

If you have more time (I'm a TRT and it's a slow week) you can make your own buttons to suit your blog using software like Photoshop Elements or Pixelmator.

Are you worried about the general public clicking on this link and getting to your profile? Don't worry, it's only accessible by someone who is logged into Scootle Community. Try it yourself: log out of Scootle Community then come back and click on my button on the right.
