Creating and Managing Slideshows

Slideshows are containers for related slides. A slideshow must exist before slides can be added to it.

The controls you see depend on your CMS permissions. Users with restricted permissions may not be able to access all features.

Slideshow show list view

Existing slideshows are listed in the show list view.

Action buttons are used to manage different settings and content associated with each slideshow.

Slides button Slides opens the slide list so you can add, edit, reorder, publish, unpublish, clone, or delete individual slides.
Locations button Locations shows where the slideshow is used before editing or deleting it.
Clone button Clone creates a new slideshow based on an existing one.
