  1. […] Are you an inveterate web surfer who’s constantly finding things you must share with the world? Jerry Bates helps you turn your find viral in Make quick posts to your WordPress blog with Press This. […]

  2. I want to add an image with Press This but when I select “insert image” nothing happens. I tried uninstalling all of my plugins and switching to Twenty Thirteen but neither helps the issue. Can someone please suggest what I should try next to get Press This working properly?

  3. where can i get this bookmarklet

    1. You should see it in the Tools>Available Tools page in your site’s Admin Dashboard, and from there you can add it to your browser as shown in the video.

  4. Hope I did good job with subtitles. It was my first attempt 🙂

      Very very nice. Thanks.

  5. I want to enable my wordpress site users to also use press this. Anyone know how to make it available to users on the front end of a wordpress site?

  6. Just a quick note. If you are a wordpress.com user, the Press This bookmarklet doesn’t work most of the time. WordPress strips out the java script, leaving you with the ability only to set up a link. The highlighted script won’t come through.
