How to Embed Social Media into Your Post

When creating a post on the lokol.me platform, you can embed a Facebook timeline, Twitter Widget, Instagram post, or Pinterest Pin right into your post.

You can also use the Text Editor to format your text and embed media. It is the most commonly-used advanced feature. 

Remember, you must be a member of lokol.me and be logged in to create a new post. Find out how to post here.


1. After you select "New Post", select "Advanced" to view all content types to add to your post.



2. After selecting "Advanced" you will see all of your content options on the New Post page.


TEXT EDITOR

1. Make sure the Text Editor is enabled. When you open the Advanced features template, the Text Editor switch should be on (yellow). If not, click to enable.

2. Click in the Text Editor window and start typing to add text. Use the features at the top of the window to format your text. You can also add photos, videos, hyperlinks, and more.
