Twitter Widget: Follow Button

This widget allows you to add a Twitter follow button to your campaign, allowing your fans to follow your tweets without having to leave your fan page. The follow button allow you to increase your Twitter following without having to display a Profile stream on your campaign. This is particularly handy on custom campaigns that lack the space to support a full stream.

Just follow these simple steps to add a follow button to your campaign!

Let’s make sure we’re on the same page…

Make sure that you:

• are logged into your Heyo account.
• have the campaign you want to edit opened.
• have the “Add Widgets” tab selected at the top of the right-hand toolbar.

For this tutorial, you will need access to your company’s RSS feed and the RSS feed URL.

Step 1: Drag and drop the Twitter widget anywhere on your campaign canvas; this will initially create a tweet button on your campaign canvas.

For a Follow button, select ‘Follow Button’ in the widget options. Here, I have moved the widget to correspond with Garth’s contact information.

Step 2: Add your Twitter handle to the field in the widget options, and select whether or not you want the button to display your handle.

Note: If you do not see these options, just click on the follow button again. The options will be on the right-hand side of the screen.

Step 3: Click save changes in the bottom left corner of the widget options.

All done! Your fans can now easily follow you on Twitter!
