Design “Float It” Button on Your Website

Posted August 23, 2007

I’m sure you have all been waiting on the edge of your chairs for the ability to integrate Design Float with your websites and blogs. Well now you can! The below options should allow you to easily integrate a “Float It” button to your website pages and blog posts both manually and dynamically. The first time the button is click for an article, it will bring the user to the submit entry page. After the entry has been submitted, all future clicks will count as floats which will be displayed to the left of the float button. See this blog for a working example and enjoy!

Do you want to give your website or blog visitors the option to submit your stories to Design Float and “Float” them? Make it easy for them by including the the link and icons below next to each piece of content allowing your visitors to easily “Float” your articles and blog posts!

    Thanks, these are a great idea. I assume the Wordpress integration is for templates and not for placing directly into posts? Cheers.

    Hey Simon, it should work in single posts or in a template. Really all I did for the Wordpress integration code is insert the dynamic permalink call in place of the URL so that the current posts URL is auto-inserted in the right spot.

    Thank you for this, this is great! It would also be nice to have the larger version of the “Float” button available for putting it on one’s blog/website.

    That’ll actually be easy for me to offer Robert. Look for the larger/standard “Float” button in the next couple of days.
