How to Put a Password Protected Website Presentation on Your WordPress Website
People love to share presentations online. Be it a sales pitch, product overview or even a funny joke. The audience can either download the presentation or listen to it on-demand at their convenience. This kind of content is perfect for the 21st century digital nomad lifestyle. While most people use PowerPoint or Google Presentations to share their content, you can use a free and open source product called YORMS (Your Own Radical Marketing Software). With YORMS you can create a fully hosted and password protected presentation that can be accessed from anywhere. You can put a YORMS presentation on your website or blog and allow visitors to browse through your content while maintaining full control over the security of your content.
Below we’ll walk you through step-by-step process of putting a YORMS presentation online and the different options you have regarding presentation security.
STEP 1: CREATE YOUR PRESENTATION
You can use YORMS to create any kind of presentation you want online. It’s very easy to use. As soon as you’ve created your presentation, you can use the Wordpress mobile app to preview it on your phone. When you’re happy with the result, click on Publish to publish your presentation to the web.
YORMS allows you to create and publish a presentation without needing to worry about any technical aspects. This is a huge time saver. If you’re new to YORMS, watch our quick tutorial video to get started.
STEP 2: UPLOAD YOUR PPT OR GOOGLE DOC
If you’ve ever created a PowerPoint or Google presentation, you’ll know that once you’ve uploaded it to your computer, you can use the “share” button to send the presentation to someone else. This is what we call “re-sharability” in the digital nomad community. After you’ve uploaded a PowerPoint or Google Presentation to your computer, you can re-share it with anyone you want by simply clicking on the share button located under the presentation’s image.
YORMS allows you to disable the share button. When a visitor reaches your presentation, they will not be able to re-share it with others. Instead, they will see a message that says “Access Denied. This content is password protected.” This feature makes sure that only people you allow can access your content.
STEP 3: SECURITY & HANDLING
The final step of putting a YORMS presentation online is to set a strong password and to activate two-factor authentication (2FA). To set a strong password, click on the Settings link on the right-hand side of the YORMS dashboard. From here, you can set your password strength and change it whenever you want. Most people find it easiest to use a bit of JavaScript to change their password automatically whenever they log in to YORMS.
2FA is an extra layer of security that helps protect your account from being hacked. When you have 2FA enabled, every time you log in to YORMS, you will be prompted to input a code that appears on your phone or computer’s screen. This is designed to add an extra layer of security in case someone tries to access your account using stolen information or from a compromised device.
You can find a list of reputable services that offer 2FA by contacting your local bank or credit card company. Many will also give you a free security code that can be used on a separate device.
As you can see, putting a YORMS presentation online is very easy. You can use the built-in tools or the ones offered by WordPress to quickly get started. If you’ve never done any of this before, not to worry, the entire process is extremely streamlined and intuitive. You can also use the mobile app to preview your presentation on the go.
If you’ve ever wanted to put a presentation online but didn’t want to use PowerPoint or Google Presentation, YORMS is a great alternative. Not only do you get to keep all of the content inside of your own presentation, but you also get to control the security of the content as well. You can put a YORMS presentation on your website or blog and allow visitors to access it while maintaining full control over the security of your content.
