00:00:00In this video, I'm going to discuss the Flip Card widget
-
00:00:04The Flip Card widget is a fun and useful way to display a virtual card that you can flip to see the opposite side of
-
00:00:13This is especially fun on touchscreen phones where you can use your finger to manually flip the card
-
00:00:18As you can see on the display on the right here, we have a very simple website with nothing but a Flip Card on it, and we have Side 1 with this beautiful waterfall, and when we
-
00:00:27click this button or click the image, it will flip it to Side 2 and show us whatever is on Side 2
-
00:00:34Flip Cards have two sides, and they're very easy to use
-
00:00:37When you create a Flip Card widget, just like every other widget, you can have your initial titles, intro, and text right here
-
00:00:45And the card sides are where you would add the two sides
-
00:00:49If you have no sides, there'll be a button that says, create a side, and you can create two sides and put whatever you want on them
-
00:00:58When we open one up, as you can see, it's very similar to a content block and many other widgets on the website
-
00:01:05Simply add your title, text right here, and you can add your image right here
-
00:01:12You can browse and upload from your computer, or you can drag and drop onto the box here, and make sure you click the upload button in order to upload the image
-
00:01:22You can then add different slider effects, or if you have multiple images, slider transitions
-
00:01:28If you have a video, you can paste the video URL right here, and you can even add buttons to the widget if you'd like, and have buttons on one side or both
-
00:01:39The tags are used to search for specific items, anything that you associate with a tag will be used to link to other tags and be searchable
-
00:01:51And the SEO, Open Graph, and URL, this is used for the search engine optimization
-
00:01:56If you have knowledge or any of this information, you can paste this here, otherwise you can just leave it alone, and it will optimize automatically
-
00:02:03And the similar and nearby items is where you can associate similar items, just like many other widgets that we have, and the comments will allow you to enable comments for this particular site or this widget
-
00:02:16Once you have created all the information, uploaded everything, and filled it all out, remember to save an update, and this will then save that site for a flip card
-
00:02:29Go back to the flip card when you're done, and then you can have either a one -sided flip card that will show the mirror image, whenever you flip it over, and it will show the inverse,
-
00:02:40or you can add a second side and it will show whatever you put on the second side
-
00:02:45And then the flip card can then be manually flipped, either by clicking on it on a computer, or using your phone on a touchscreen device, like I mentioned earlier, which is especially fun
-
00:02:56This is very easy to use, and a useful and effective way to display this information, and that's how easy it is to use the flip card widget
