How To change the Images of the Rotating Homepage image slider

Note: This applies to DocuShare 7.x and 8.x

Note: You must be an Administrator to perform this solution.

To display custom images using the image slider:

1. Upload custom image files to a DocuShare Collection.
   The images should be minimum 820x346 pixels, 1256x500 pixels if customers are using hi-res displays, and in JPG format. Give each image file a summary property value that you want displayed as a caption under it on the home page. Only the preferred version of each JPG file is used by the image slider.

    

2. Apply permissions to this Collection to define who can see the custom images.
   To see custom images displayed in the home page image slider, guests and registered users must have read permission to the Collection and to the images within the Collection. Users not given read permission to the Collection see only the default slider images.
    

3. From the Administration menu, click Site Management | Site Configuration

    

4. In the Home Page Image Slider Collection field, enter the handle of the Collection where the custom images are stored, such as Collection-150.

    

5. Make sure Enable Home Page Image Slider is set to Yes.

    

6. Click Apply.
   The image slider is now enabled and displays the custom image files in the defined collection, along with a caption below each image. The images advance automatically through the set at approximately five seconds per image. Small buttons are displayed so users can manually change images.
