Blog Establishment was created by Galileo
I am in the process of establishing a blog for our upcoming trip to Abacos. Having difficulty merging Spot data into SpotWalla. Keep getting a blank world map even though I have Spot data archived in Spot. I thought there was a presentation on one of the old Island Packet web sites that demonstrated how to do this but I can not seem to locate it in the new ipyoa environment.

I have a BlogSpot page that I am creating and I am trying to import into it a widget to show our location I have the url in there to direct viewer to spot map. I established a Share Page in Spot to obtain this url. I established a Trip page in SpotWalla using this same link, but all I get is a blank world map. I have a few more questions but 'll hold off on those.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You have it right from what I read. The basic idea is this.

Spot sends to Find Me Spot (they will only keep your spots for 30 days) so...
Spotwalla.com steps up and your connect your Spot account to your Spotwalla.com account
Now Spotwalla will store every spot for ever, GOOD.
Now, you only work with Spotwalla, and that guy is very helpful if you email him
In Spotwalla, they have code to present the widget, I copied their code.
Then back in BLOGGER, you edit your template layout and ADD a HTML/Javascript and paste the widget code from Spotwalla.
Save your blogger template and it should be there.

Hayden,

As an aside an interesting thing just happened when I went to print out your response. My "Print Preview" page really narrowed down the text to where the page shown was only 1/2 as wide as the 8.5' width page. Everything printed out narrow, centered in the middle of the page. I am using Chrome with Windows 10. Don't know if that has anything to do with it or not? Not had that occurrence before with other web pages

To print:

Highlight or select all the text in one post. Then right click and select PRINT.
It will print the text that is highlighted.
