Changes coming soon to Pick of the Week!
We’re very excited to announce that on September 1, 2022, Pick of the Week will transition to be fully integrated with This Week on FORMED.
What is changing?
The biggest change will be the name of all the resources. Other than that, however, you can still expect the same resources (and more!) to help promote FORMED in your parish.
Why the change?:
Due to our team’s limited resources, it was not easily manageable to have two separate weekly resources. We’re excited to move our parish resources to promote the same content we are already curating in This Week on FORMED.
What to expect:
During this transition period, you will still have access to Pick of the Week resources through the end of August. Additionally, the new and improved format is available for you to try out and implement.
Directions to add the Pick of the Week on your parish website:
- Copy and paste the iFrame code below:
<iframe src="https://leaders.formed.org/files/potw-vert.html" width="100%" height="800"></iframe>
- Be sure you are in your editor’s “code/text view” when pasting the embed code.
- The height assumes you will be placing the iFrame at a width of approximately 320 pixels. If you place the iFrame into a narrower space, you’ll need to increase the height (otherwise it will display with a scroll bar). If you place it in a wider space, you can decrease the height.
Directions to add the Pick of the Week to Social Media:
There are two options for uploading Pick of the Week to your social media accounts:
1. Upload any of the downloadable images below into your account post
or
2. Insert FORMED Content directly to your social media post:
- Go to watch.formed.org
- Find specific content you’d like to share by using our search bar in the top left corner.
- Copy and paste URL from that content into your social media post.
- Allow for pop-up thumbnail to be visible in your post and you will automatically have an image attached to your post!
