Exhibits

The Exhibit module can be found under Modules in the left-hand navigation. The Exhibits module allows you to build digital exhibits in a carousel or blog format.

Click the "Add New" button in the top left corner to start a new exhibit. You are then directed to the new display template.

Give your exhibit a unique name. You might also include a summary. Keep in mind that this name and description will be seen by visitors to your website. Once the exhibit has been built, you can alter these fields before publishing your exhibit by selecting the edit icon.

By selecting those buttons, you can upload a banner image or an intro image. When you drop, paste, or browse for an image from a folder on your computer, Odyssey will show you an upload window  where you can do so.

Click the "Save" button in the top right corner after you have configured the exhibit's specifications. You are directed to the edit exhibit page by Odyssey.

Make your slide's title special. Although the title field is essential, you may choose whether you want this title to appear on the slide by checking the box next to it. The location of this slide within the show is automatically filled in for the Order field. On the slide, you can also add a caption and text content. The slide's accompanying image is the subject of a caption. The text content box has room for longer or more in-depth narratives.

You can select an item to display in the slide by selecting it from your collection(s) using the drop-down menu found under "Add new slide." The slide is linked to the item's metadata record when the "Link to item detail page" checkbox is selected. Instead, click the "Upload" option if you want to upload a unique image for the slide.

Also, you can rearrange your slides by clicking and dragging them around on the "Order" tab.
