It's easy! Go to Build, and click on Quickpage. From Quickpage, there are two options, both in the Build by Design section, called grid1 and grid2. Info Flashes can be installed using either of these grids by clicking on any of the pulldown menus.
Q: I'm using Freeform. How do I put Info Flashes on my page?
Whether you're editing an existing page or starting from scratch in Freeform, it's easy to put Info Flashes on your page. Click on the "building supplies" pulldown menu in Freeform, and select Info Flashes.
Q: How often do Info Flashes update?
Info Flashes update pretty much every time you reload your page (in other words, it won't update before your very eyes).
