You will now see the Slideshow Interface:

• Autoplay - Starts the slideshow automatically when they click on the link
• Loop - Plays the slideshow over and over in a loop (best option when using in social media or for digital signage)
• Mute Video - if you have added one or more videos to your slideshow, choose whether you want the audio to play

*To add a Title or Description, click on a photo to open it in the lightbox. Click on the three dots (top right) and the pencil. You can now type in a Title and / or Description.

More Options:

• Slideshow carousel allows you to enable thumbnails of the photos to show up at the bottom. Users can then click on these to jump to that photo.

• Transparent background - changes the background from black to white.
• Enable download - Adds a download button to allow users to download each image individually**

• Displaying the Media Description

**The ability to download from a slideshow needs to be enabled for your school before you can see this option. Please complete this short form if you want us to enable slideshow downloads for you.
