Editor

Overview

The Hall of Fame Online Editor is used to create the public facing interactive experiences. Changes made in the editor can be previewed before or after making them live using its Virtual Interactive Display. The editor was designed to be easy to use and easy to access from any contemporary web enabled device with a supported web browser and a high-speed Internet connection. Supported web browsers include the latest versions of Edge, Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Opera. Some of the common tasks the editor is used to accomplish include:

•Creating and editing attributes, which are used to uniquely identify members

•Creating and configuring modules, which are used to organize, search, and display members and member content

•Customizing module styles, and assigning module templates to alter a module's appearance and functionality

•Configuring the attract screen layout and styles

•Creating and editing module menus, which are used to navigate the interactive

•Creating and editing module pages, which are used to display member content

•Creating and editing members, which represent those being commemorated

•Assigning attributes to members and editing attribute values

•Creating, editing, or configuring member content, such as write-ups, images, and videos

•Creating attract screen overrides specific to individual members

•Configuring settings, such as creating and managing station configurations, interactive devices, and station assignments

Getting Started, How to...

Create New Users

Each installation requires two types of users at a minimum, including an Administrative user and an INTERACTIVE ONLY user. An Administrative user has full access to the editor and an INTERACTIVE ONLY user is required to run the public facing interactive (kiosk). Although the primary user created at sign-up has administrative privileges, it is strongly recommended that at least one new Administrative user be created for use with the editor to limit access to sensitive account information such as billing details. It is also recommended that the password be changed for the INTERACTIVE ONLY user that was created for you at sign-up.

See Creating Users under the Editor Users topic to learn how to create and edit users.
