Here we show you how to create a slideshow. Slideshows allow you to display images and maintain one or more texts for those images, which are then shown within the image. The feature enables automatic switching between images and is particularly well suited for banners on the home page.Documentation Index

This guide is part of the Content Types. We show you how to create content in general under Creating and Editing Content.
Step 1: Select the Content Type
First, select the content type “Slideshows” when creating a new content item. A window with the heading “New Slideshow” should then open.

Step 2: Choose a Description
Begin by choosing a description for your slideshow. This is for organisational purposes only and will not be displayed on the selected page.
Step 3: Choose Height and Width
Next, select an appropriate height and width. Please note that you should at least match these to the aspect ratio of the images.
Step 4: Choose Effects
Here you can select a separate effect for both the text transition and the image transition.

Step 5: Set Display and Effect Duration
You can now define the duration of the effect. This duration is to be entered in milliseconds in the corresponding field labelled “Effect Duration (ms)”.

Step 6: Set Arrow Display and Text Position
In the drop-down next to “Arrows” you can specify whether arrows should be displayed to the left and right of the images. Then define the text position and save the slideshow.


Step 7: Upload Images
After saving, a new list named “Slideshow Images” should have appeared at the bottom. Here you can upload individual images, choose a description and a file, and add a link and a preview image.



Step 8: Choose Image Heading and Texts
Now select a suitable image heading and concise yet meaningful image texts. Then save, arrange the images via drag & drop, and review the result.
