How do I add a Slideshow Widget to my site?

Navigate to Content Management --> Pages and either create the new page you would like the widget to live on or click on the button to “Edit” an existing page.
Click on “Add new widget to main page content.” Your pages are divided into 12 columns. So be sure you “size” your widget accordingly. If you want the widget to span across the entire page, give the “size” field a value of 12. If you want the widget to span across half of your page, give the “size” field a value of 6. Enter the number of rows that you want your widget to use. Keep in mind, the widget will auto-size the number of rows based on the content you have within it.
Enter a name for your widget and check the boxes to determine if you want to display the name on your page, give it a border, or hide it from mobile devices.
Choose “Slideshow” for the widget type.
Set the delay for the interval in which you would like the images to rotate. Optionally select whether you would like to display a title or caption with your images. Then, upload your images.
Once images have been uploaded, optionally select a URL from the Elevate pages or enter an external URL that you would like the images to link to.
Once you have entered the images and information you wish to click “Save.” This will return you to the page editor for the page you are editing. Click “Save and Stay” to save your changes.

NOTE

Slideshow widgets are recommended to be set to the maximum, 12-column, and widget width. All uploaded images should have the same width and height dimensions and will be scaled to the width of the widget, as displayed on the page. We recommend using images that are at least 870px wide by 250px high unless placing the widget in a sidebar.
