So this process involves using Google Docs to upload a SWF file so I can then post it here on Blogger. It would be nice if Blogger just let me upload it directly, but it doesn't. I could pay for a my own domain and then upload all kinds of files, but I didn't. So here goes...
The example SWF file, give it a minute:
Start your Blogger post, we will be pasting the link location for your SWF file in the post, so keep it open in another window / tab.
The Google Docs uploading process:
YES! you must have a Google Account.
YES! you must have a Google Account.
- In a new window/ tab log into Google Docs
- Then go to your Google Doc's page - ya know, it lists all the Google Doc files you've ever created or uploaded... (clicking on a screenshot will make it BIGGER, click your Browser's BACK button to return here)
- Then click the Upload button in the upper left corner...
- Browse to your SWF file
- Share it with Anyone Who Has the Link by changing the Privacy setting, and then click the Upload button - both of these are in the lower left corner.
- Let it upload...
- Click the Go Back to Google Docs link at the top left, you shall see your SWF...
- Click on your newly uploaded SWF...
- Then right-click on the Open link ad copy link location...
Return to your Blogger post
- Return to your Blogger post
- Click on the Edit HTML tab at the top right
- Paste your SWF location.
- But wait... there's more!
- You need to surround your SWF location with loving "embed" tags,
change the src=" " to your SWF file location.
CLICK ON THE SCREENSHOT, no Blogger won't let me put the code up so you could just copy and paste it with ease...
- You should be done...
so click your Preview button or be daring and go ahead and Publish the post.
