Only users with an "Admin" role can access exhibit configuration options. After opening your Exhibit Dashboard (instructions), admins should be presented with the following navigation sidebar:
We'll go over each of these tabs:
- General
- Appearance
- Users
- Metadata
- Search
General
The most important fields are:
- Title: This is the only required field for your exhibit.
- Published?: This checkbox at the bottom is required for making your exhibit public, but can be ignored until you're ready to publish.
Other useful tips:
- Your exhibit "Description" only displays when hovering over your exhibit thumbnail in the main exhibits index. This field will be truncated to fit over the thumbnail, so keep this short!
- Selecting tags from the "Tag list" will help with filtering exhibits in the main exhibits index:
- Adding a feedback recipient email address will add a "Feedback" link in the header for exhibit visitors. Clicking this Feedback link will expand a basic feedback form. Adding a new feedback recipient email will send an email to recipients asking them to confirm their email address.
- Deleting exhibits cannot be undone. You may want to "Export data" from your exhibit first to ensure data is not lost.
Appearance
This is where you can set your exhibit masthead image (that appears at the top of each of your exhibit pages) and thumbnail (that appears on the main exhibits index).
