You can create slides of all your League's awesome photos! For each slideshow item, you can add a description and link to more. As you create slides, each one begins to dynamically fill the slideshow. Your League's slideshow will display at the top of the homepage. Follow these steps along with the attachments as your guides to create a new slideshow item.

  1. While on your homepage, expand the Administer League Site menu.  You'll find this icon above your site menu.
  2. From the drop-down list of options, click Add Slideshow Item. This will open a new draft of a new slide.
  3. TITLE**: Add a Slideshow Item Title. The title in the example below is "Donec sed odio dui."
  4. SLIDESHOW IMAGE**: Under Slideshow Image, click Browse to upload your image from your computer.
    • When uploading, follow these instructions for inserting your slideshow image. 
    • If using an existing image in the MyLO Media Library, click the tabs at the top of the Media browser window: "My League's FIles", My Files", or "All Files".  
  5. SLIDESHOW LINK: Add the link title and link URL if needed. The link title in the example below is "LWV US is awesome!" and the link URL is http://lwv.org/. 
    1. You can use the Search button to find an internal page to link to, a page from your own League's MyLO site.
  6. SLIDESHOW CAPTION: Add the slideshow caption in the appropriate text box, if needed.
  7. PUBLIC OR MEMBERS ONLY?**: The slideshow item can display publicly on the homepage, or privately on the Members Only landing page.
  8. LEAGUE TO WHICH THIS CONTENT BELONGS*: Your League's name should be chosen here--it's most likely the only option for this field.
  9. PUBLISHING OPTIONS
    1. PROMOTED TO FRONT PAGE: this option does not apply to slideshow items.
    2. STICKY AT TOP OF LISTS: choosing this option will force the slideshow item to remain as always displaying first in the slideshow.
    3. MODERATION NOTES: These are created by default but you can add more details about your changes.
    4. MODERATION STATE: If you are satisfied with your changes to your slideshow item, change this state to Published.
    5. SAVE your creation!
