With the launch of version two of DealerWeb, we did away with widgets in exchange for modules that are more dynamic and customizable.  So how do you use these modules to display your Facebook and Twitter streams? Here's how:


TWITTER

 

  1. Go to https://twitter.com/settings/widgets/new and log into your dealerships Twitter account image002.jpg
  2. Accept the defaults and press the button: Create Widget. The screen will refresh and you will find the Twitter embed code highlighted at the bottom of the page 

  3. Copy the code.

  4.  Paste the code into Content section under the “Text” tab in whichever module you choose to use (1-up, 2-up, 3-up, etc.) on your DealerWeb site. 

  5. Click the Update button near the top right of your editor page to commit the changes. Your Twitter timeline will now display the tweets from your dealership’s account.

FACEBOOK

 

  1. Go to https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/page-plugin and enter your Facebook Page URL in the field provided. 

  2. You may need to adjust the width and height settings depending on what module you plan to use (I set them to 500 pixels wide by 600 pixels high to fit in a two up module).

  3. Then click the “Get Code” button and copy the text from box #2 in the dialog box that pops up. 

  4. Paste the code into Content section under the “Text” tab in whichever module you choose to use (1-up, 2-up, 3-up, etc.) on your DealerWeb site. 

  5. Click the Update button near the top right of your editor page to commit the changes. Your Facebook timeline will now display the posts from your dealership’s account
