Afrigator HowTo: Sign up using your OpenID

May 22

NOTE: This howto is to sign up a NEW site and account with Afrigator.

If you do not know what OpenID is, please read this first.

If you want an OpenID, you can get a list of providers here.

Righto, lets get started. Go to http://afrigator.com and on the right hand side of the page, click on the Sign up link.

You can either sign up the traditional way, or you can sign up using your OpenID.

To sign up with your OpenID cannot be any easier than it already is!

Enter your OpenID in the required field and click the “Join” button. Your open id is in the form of an URL (or web site address) like http://claimid.com/stii

You will be redirected to the site of your OpenID provider, in this case http://myopenid.com. If you are logged in over at your provider, you will get the following:

Click on the “Allow Forever” or the “Allow Once” button. NOTE: If you are not logged in at your provider, you will be asked to log on first!

Once you click the “Allow Forever” or “Allow Once” button, you will be redirected back to Afrigator and will be prompted to enter your site or blog’s details.

NOTE: If your feed is properly set up in your blog, Afrigator will automatically get your feed URL. Do not change it! If the Feed URL field is empty, please go get your feed URL and enter it here. Click the “Save” button and you are good-to-go!

The next thing you should see is the Dashboard page with your blog displayed over there. You are now ready to get your tracking code and Afrigator can now start pulling in your feeds!
