How Do I Disable the Description in My YouTube Video Module on a Squidoo Lens?
In my now infamous debate about Jonathan Leger’s golf lens case study, Donna had a question about a comment I made - where I told Jonathan to disable the description so that vsitors wouldn’t see the competing URL and type tht into their browser.
Before I give the explanation, let me reiterate that I deeply respect Jonathan and am, in fact, one of his $7 script customers! I in no way meant to disparage him or his attempt at creating a lens - in fact, I praised him for doing better than 99% of the people out there.
Someone gota little irritated thinking I was attacking him, which I wasn’t. She (not Donna) said that “most people” aren’t making money on Squidoo. True - and most entrepreneurs who try, can’t earn 6 figures with Internet Marketing period. But I do, I can, and I’m willing to help teach you how - so that’s all this was - a tutorial using Jonathan’s case study as my example.
Okay, back to the original question at hand - to disable your description. Let’s say you find a great YouTube video to put on your lens. Only problem is, they’ve (smartly) added their own URL to the description, which will show up in your YouTube module. We don’t want that - we just want the video, the title, and the rating.
Do the following:
1.) Log into your dashboard and into the lens you want to edit.
2.) Choose to Edit the YouTube Module.
3.) Click Display Options
4.) UNcheck Description.
5.) Save
6.) Republish your lens.
That should do it!
Hope this helps.
