Office survivor 3 Automated Screenshots for Your Website Review

So, its cool to have an auto­mated screen shot of s spe­sific site in your post.so, i decided to to some research and found about three options to do it right.well, the truth is its two good and one which i would not  recomm­naded but its works and has no faults, so we need to add him also on the list

Snap.com

My first option will be the snap-shot plugin.althought you have to open an account on http://www.snap.com/ and it’s com­mer­cial and its add some ads to the pop-up screen, bu the end of the day , its brings an updated image of the site, its pop-up(we said it) and its cool.They say it keeps visitor’s more time on your site, but i havent foun any proof of it.installation of the plu­gin is not very “easy”.i found the best way to do it is to add as they say this code :

<script type=“text/javascript” src=“http://shots.snap.com/ss/<personall code>/snap_shots.js”></script>

on your footer.php file.

so:

pros– cool, nice look­ing popup, easy to a wp devel­oper to add one line code, good man­ag­ment web­site.
pros –non wp devel­opr might get lost, commercial,have ads.

WordPres.org Non sup­ported URL Web Service

Sur­vivor or not, had some time at the office, so i looked at this blog arti­cle on http://www.wpbeginner.com.They have sev­eral good arti­cles on word­press and i did had some insight.on this arti­cle they refer to a nice “find­ing” that Binary moon blog­ger found.reading his arti­cle it seems that wp.org had this option.he talked with them and they said you can use it but its not sup­ported and it might dis­ap­per in the future.But for cur­rent time, BM devel­oped a quick code to use the web­ser­vice and wrapped it in a plugin.you can down­load the plu­gin here.after install it, you can use it on a post with this kind  of short code:

browser­shot url=“http://link-to-website” width=“foo-value”

So Now lets put a real url like www.theofficesurvivor.com and width will be 300.

www.theofficesurvivor.com

Work­ing and nice
pros — free, do the job, have a plu­gin which is free also
cons-not pub­lic­ity sup­ported by wp.No pop up.

Web Col­lage

Web col­lage works on your links.Add all sites you want to have snap shots on the link zone.then, cre­ate a page and add this short code  : [web­col­lage]. then all your links will be with the snap shots.The secret behind this plu­gin is the usage of http://www.websnapr.com/ service.They give you the option to gen­er­ate a snap shot of a site for free in two sizes, and it takes some time to retrive it– mostly you get a mes­sage where your request is queued. For more image size and quicker image serve you have to pay.The web­col­lage plu­gin has a sim­ple line where the magic happens.The line is :

<img src=\“http://images.websnapr.com/?size=T&key=<the plu­gin key>&url=http://www.theofficesurvivor.com

here is an exam­ple :

pro : working,free from com­mer­cial owner (like snap.com).

cons:takes some time to get the image,free images come only at 200px width size, adds a watermark/link on the image.

I hope you found this arti­cle suit­able to your need.good luck !
