If you want to embed an external tool like [Juicer.io](https://www.juicer.io), [Dogooder](https://dogooder.co/), etc. on an NB page, have a couple of ways of doing it. On any NB site it's possible to create a custom page template and add the external tool's embed code directly to the page template.&#x20;

However, Candidate also lets you easily create your own embedded section,  without the need to make a custom page template or add code directly to the page.

## Adding an external plugin

1. Create a basic page for your external snippet code.
2. On the basic page navigate to **Settings > Social Media > Excerpt for Facebook** and add the snippet given to you from the external plugin.&#x20;
3. On the page you want the embedded content to appear, add the tag `Admin Show Embed:[SNIPPET_SLUG]`.
   * Where`[SNIPPET_SLUG]`is the slug of the page you created in step 1 (I.e. `Admin Show Embed:social_media_stream`)<br>
