In this mini-tutorial, you configure the Google Sites Connector.
Livescribe Connect can send notes and audio to a Google Sites account
as an interactive Pencast. To use this feature, provide the following:
your account login information.
the URL of a specific site within your Google Sites account.
a page template that Google sites will use to create a page for
displaying the Pencast.
Click the Google Sites icon on the
Connectors tab of the Livescribe Connect
computer app.
Enter your Google Sites login account information in
Email and
Password.
In
Site URL, enter the site to which you wish
your notes and audio sent. You must first create the site in Google Sites.
The site URL is generated for you by Google Sites. Note that the
site URL and the site name are not the same. Your site URL will have a format
such as:
https://sites.google.com/site/yoursitenamehere/
. You should copy the site URL from Google Sites and paste it into this field.
You can do this in one of two ways:
View the site in Google Sites and copy the URL from the
address box of your web browser.
View the site in Google Sites, click the
More Actions button, and select
Site permissions. Then copy the URL from the
Link to Share field.
In
Page template, accept the default value,
Web Page—the template for a standard page on
Google Sites. The Google Sites Connector will insert the pencast in the main
text box of the page, above the Attachments and Comments gadgets.
Alternatively, select
Custom Template from the dropdown menu. A
text box appears in which you enter the name of a custom page template.
Note: Before using the Google Sites Connector with a custom page
template, you must first create the template in Google Sites. The template must
contain the
[pencast] tag in the location where you wish
the pencast to be inserted. See
Creating a Custom Page Template in Google Sites.
