5. Select the ipushpull page you want displayed with the “Folder Name” and “Page Name” dropdowns in the ipushpull Shortcode Generator. You can then adjust the height and width to best fit your data and customise the rest of the features such as the update interval and the embedded page toolbar options

When you publish the page, your excel data will now appear on your website. From now on, every time you push an update from excel to ipushpull your WordPress page will update automatically.
If you want every visitor to your website to be able to see your embedded ipushpull Page without having an ipushpull account, you have to make your ipushpull page Public.
If not they will see "You don't have access to this page" displayed.
For further details, visit the ipushpull Page in the WordPress plugin directory.
