The continuing story working through an actual virtual service example - August 29, 2021. Time for the reflection
Video - on Vimeo
This is the same deal as before. Upload to Vimeo and insert the link.
Note: The reflection video files I get from Ian are very large (often close to a Gigabyte). This is ok, but if - and only if- you have the skills to reduce it down, you could save a lot of disk space. It has only once been a problem, though.
Putting the script online
I have the full text of the reflection as a Word document, and some people like to read it as text.
I'm running out of time to document
So... read Posting a new Reflections article (sermon,blog post) and Editing a service - content templates
Steps basically are:
- Create the reflection article (first help link above)
- Get the article ID (second help link above - scroll down to "Reflection text modal popup link")
- Insert a popup link using Content Template: "Reflection text modal popup"
Other pop-ups
This technique can also be used for prayers, although in that case use a different category for the popup article: Prayers and Texts.
