The tv boss fire plugin – setup and usage
We already have an embed code that many of you are using, which allows you to embed the channels you build in tv boss fire in any web page created using HTML.
Because the loading time of a webpage is crucial, and most users are using WordPress, we developed a WordPress plugin that will allow you to import the channels you build in tv boos fire in any WordPress installation so you can display them on any WordPress blog post or page.
To start, log into your tv boss fire account and click on the download section, then download the WordPress plugin.
After you download the plugin, you need to log into your WordPress admin dashboard area, upload and activate the plugin.
In the left sidebar, look for plugins, add new ones, and upload plugins.
You can either drag and drop the file and “install now” or choose a file and then “install now.”
After the plugin is installed, then click activate the plugin.
After the plugin is activated, you will find a new item in the left side menu, “tv boss fire.”

After that, click submit.
You will see a list of your channels in your account.
You can import one or all the channels as needed.
After the channel is imported, you can click on the my channels tab and see imported channels.
You see a couple of options.
In the “edit link” section, you can add your channel store links from the Amazon Channel Store and Roku Channel Store.
The “sync” button. We recommend using it if you update your channel and notice that the channel content on your web page is not updated.
And, of course, you have the option to delete the channel.
You can add the shortcode into posts or pages.
After the shortcode
is added to the page,
You can see the channel content;
a channel icon, channel description, the channel title, the first video, and the slider with all the content.
We also added a share button to make it easier for your viewers to share your page.
If your ad your channel store links, the plugin will display the amazon and Roku logos; when a user clicks on them, it will lead them to your Roku store link or your amazon store link so they can install the channels.
Here are a couple of things to keep in mind.
The plugin is built and tested using the latest WordPress security and coding requirements, so ensure that you always run the latest available WordPress version.
In the channel settings section, we have a couple more settings that will help you customize and adapt the design of the embedded channel to fit your page color and branding.
The first is the image style.
By default is a round image, as you can see, but you can make it full width or half width depending on how we need it to save and the picture changed.
We also have the option to change the color and the font.
If you don’t want to show all these elements, you can select not to deliver them.
Remember to repeat the same process if you want to add another channel.
You must fill in your email and password and import your channel.
Of course, we have a white label plugin for our agency users who also have the white label upgrade.
And that’s it.
