How to Add Share Buttons at the End of Every Post on Blogger


If you don't want the tiny and bored-looking share buttons set up by default  by blogger at the end of every post, you could change them to these two options I'm going to show you shortly.

First, you need to remove Blogger's share buttons. Follow these steps:

1. Open your blog dashboard
2. Go to Layout
3. Click edit on the "Blog Posts" gadget
4. Remove the check mark from the "Show share buttons" option and click save

Now that you have removed them. You can now add your custom share buttons.

1. Open your blog dashboard
2. Go to Template
3. Click Edit HTML
4. In the template code find  (click CTRL + F and paste this code). You will find more than one of these occurrences. Paste any of the below codes below each occurrence and click Save Template.

How to Post You Tube Videos to Instagram



Before you upload any video to Instagram please have in mind their copyright policy. Also you are only allowed to upload from 6 -15 seconds of video.

Please follow these steps, there might be other ways to do this, but this is how I've been doing it for my work and I'm happy with the results.

1. Go to you You Tube and choose the video of your preference.

2. Copy the URL link from the video.


 3. Go to this link

 4. Where it says "Media URL to download" paste the You Tube video URL you copied in the previous step.



5. Select your Conversion format which should be MP4 to be able to open it on your mobile device.

6. After selecting MP4 you will see the conversion options. Uncheck "Start of Video and "End of Video.











7. Now you will see a timer in each section. Here you enter when do you want to start your video and when do you want it to end. This will be your clip. To do this just watch your video on You Tube multiple times and select your range. In my case I chose it to start at the 4 second mark and end at the 11 second mark (which covers the maximum of 15 seconds allowed by Instagram).















8. Now click "Continue" next to your link. Here you will see the description of your clip with all your selected option. You can leave the Detected Media as default or you can change it to your preferred mode. Now you're ready to click "Start" at the bottom.

9. Now that you downloaded your clip. Send it to your self by email (or any other way you use to transfer documents from your computer to your phone). Open the email on your mobile device, download the clip and save it to your camera roll,

10. THAT'S IT! Open your Instagram app and upload your video.
