To set up a Skype User Id within a BlogTalkRadio account, click on the Settings link in the Drop Down Menu. Click on the MyPage section, scroll to the lower part of the page and there, you will see a field where you can enter your Skype User ID. Save your changes. Keep in mind that hosts who have more than one account will need to disassociate the Skype ID from one account to use it in another account.
To remove a Skype ID from the account used previously go to Settings/My Page and scroll the bottom of the screen where you will find a Skype ID field. Remove the Skype ID, and save your changes when you are finished. Enter the Skype ID in the account you would like to use.
To host your show with Skype to Host, simply click on the Skype icon on your studio interface when you have a scheduled show and a new window will open up where you will type in your personal Skype ID, then connect to the call. There is no need for a pin number to be entered and you will be automatically dialed into your host line. To disconnect from the call click on the End Show button on the switchboard.
Don't forget! To see the Skype icon on your studio, you will need to first schedule your show.
