Travis Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 We are now able to log into Scroll Saw Village using either your Facebook or Twitter account. The Benifits: Many of us are always logged into either Facebook or Twitter, but not always logged into our favorite forums (read; Scroll Saw Village ) Now it's simple as clicking the Facebook or Twitter icon to login. It makes it easier to share great articles and forum threads. Simply click your share button (at the bottom of the article or thread) and a popup window appears where you can edit your message before automatically posting to Facebook or Twitter. When you compose a new post, you have the option of updating your Facebook/Twitter status with a link. You can automatically update your profile picture or status. You can even update Facebook/Twitter from your profile page. You have full control what you share. You can manage what stuff gets updated from your profile page (Edit Profile>Manage Facebook, Edit Profile>Manage Twitter). I personally chose none of the update options. I just use it to log in and share links. But you can choose to do what you're most comfortable with. To set it up: Log out of SSV. Then relog in by clicking either the Facebook/Twitter icon at the top of the screen or by clicking Sign In and choosing either Facebook/Twitter from the login screen. You'll be taken to either Facebook or Twitter (depending on which you chose) which will ask for you to log in. It'll also tell you what info can be accessed (this is software side and pretty general statements. Neither myself or other members can access this unless you specify). Click OK. You'll return to SSV. If the email from Facebook/Twitter matches what we have on SSV, you'll be logged in automatically. Check to make sure your username is correct, especially if you have more than one SSV account (which you shouldn't, BTW). If it doesn't match anything we have on record, You'll have the option of either creating a new account or connecting it to an existing SSV account. If you already have an SSV account, connect it. Don't start a new account unless you don't have one already. That's it! Now if you're logged into Facebook/Twitter, you can simply click the icon to log into SSV! Enjoy!
