How to Edit Your Skype Room URI Join Link at the Skype Directory

If you want more people to join your Skype chat rooms, I invite you as a Skype Room owner to add their Skype Room URI or Join Link to my Skype Chat directory. I even made a video on the Skype commands needed to help. So, now that I have posted a video demo of how to make a Skype Room URI Join Link Joining Enabled here, some people are asking me how to edit the their Skype Directory listing. Here is the step by step instructions. Let me know how that works.

1. Login to the Skype Directory
2. Open your Skype Chat Room listing
3. Click Edit (bottom left)
4. Edit the Skype Room URI, How?

If you want to add a Joining Enabled Skype Room URI to the Skype Directory (recommended), then search for : room_uri

First Steps to make a Skype Room Join Link work

Have you ever viewed the profile of a Skype group or Skype room?  Try it. Right click in recent conversations on the right side of your main Skype window. Then View Profile. You should see a “Copy Link to Clipboard” button. If you do, it is a “Public” IM Skype Room and he link will work. If not, then the join link when clicked will not work. People can only join a Skype room join link if it is a Public Skype Room.

Try this…

1) Enter a set options Skype command into your room as an IM (Instant Message) like this:
/set options JOINING_ENABLED
2) Check that it worked with this Skype command: /get options
3) Get the URI with this Skype command:
/get uri
4) Copy long uri join link and paste in room_URI field in your listing here.
