| + | Sometimes, a picture does //not// say more than a 1000 words, and your slide presentation can benefit from additional textual annotation. | ||
| + | {{ ::meta_data.png?400 |}} | ||
| + | |||
| + | In PMA.slidebox, this can be done through an interplay with [[:core_slidebox|PMA.core]]. | ||
| + | |||
| + | If you prefer an interactive walk-through, the procedure is [[https://youtu.be/GFXogcpVHR0?t=160||illustrated in our online video tutorial]] as well. | ||
| + | |||
| + | You start by going to PMA.core and define a form that will hold your slide meta-data. | ||
| + | |||
| + | {{ ::meta_data_10.png?400 |}} | ||
| + | |||
| + | Fill out some general data about the form, then add your fields. | ||
| + | |||
| + | {{ ::meta_data_20.png?400 |}} | ||
| + | |||
| + | Once you have a form defined, you can prepare a fill-out sheet. | ||
| + | |||
| + | {{ ::meta_data_30.png?400 |}} | ||
| + | |||
| + | When you have your folder divided in subfolders to [[slides_cases|organize your cases]], make sure to check to include “slides in subfolders”. | ||
| + | |||
| + | After you download the spreadsheet, you see something like this: | ||
| + | |||
| + | {{ ::meta_data_40.png?400 |}} | ||
| + | |||
| + | Fill out the sheet, and upload it again to PMA.core. You can confirm in the PMA.core user interface that your meta-data were parsed correctly: | ||
| + | |||
| + | {{ ::meta_data_50.png?400 |}} | ||
| + | |||
| + | After selecting the file and pressing the upload button, you can follow along as the meta-data gets populated. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Next, you go back to the PMA.slidebox configuration and point to the form as it is retrieved from PMA.core. | ||
| + | |||
| + | {{ ::meta_data_60.png?400 |}} | ||
| + | |||
| + | {{ ::meta_data.png?400 |}} | ||
| + | |||
| + | Now your public website is as you want it. As before, you can notify end-users via email or instant messaging that you updated the website. | ||
| + | |||
| + | The URL is the only piece of information that you need to share a collection with people. You can also refer to it from other websites with a simple hyperlink. | ||
