How To Add A Skype Button To Your Blog

http://MatthewNeer.com

Have you ever seen those cool looking connect icons that people have on their blogs? Have you ever wondered if you could add a Skype icon there and when someone clicks it, it automatically adds that person to your Skype contacts list?

Well that is exactly what Matthew Neer is going to teach you how to do in this video. You're going to learn how to get a Skype icon, see the exact HTML code that Matthew Neer uses to make this work, the JavaScript code that is used to do a Skype check to make sure your visitors have Skype and if they don't it will give them a download link instead of a add link.

Watch it now, implement and grow.

How do you put HTML in skype?

[MatthewNeer]

@loper324 Dunno if they allow that. I'm assuming you're talking about chat? If so, try just copy and pasting...

[loper324]

@MatthewNeer first get the HTML code, Once you have that Press Ctrl+SHIFT then click the send -.- my friend told me

I assume the blog's theme wp-content folder can only be accessed if u host it urself?

Matthew - great video everything works unless you use safari. Do you have any solutions for when a person is using the "safari" web browser?
