AdvisorStream allows users to not only have articles shared to their Social Media pages, but also to their own Website. This will allow a selected page of your website to be up to date with recent and insightful articles. This will give your clients and prospects the ability to read great content directly on your website.
Note: In order to setup Website posting you will need to have access to the back end of your website where you can make edits and add HTML code. If your website is managed by somebody else, you can send the Embedded Code Snippet over to them and let them know which page you would like the articles to appear on.

The Advanced Settings on the AdvisorStream Website settings page are optional tools intended primarily for web developers who want more control over how AdvisorStream content appears on their website.
CSS Class: Allows a developer to replace the default AdvisorStream CSS class names with their own, making it easier to match the look and feel of their website.
HTML Tables Option: Changes the underlying layout structure to use tables instead of divs.
Bootstrap Defaults: Updates the class names to align with standard Bootstrap classes, which is helpful if the website is already built using the Bootstrap framework.
These settings are not typically needed for most users, but they can be useful for web developers who want additional flexibility in styling and integrating the AdvisorStream embed into their website.
