The purpose of this work spec is to articulate the steps to take to update any Amazing Slider slider. The most often slider to be updated, is probably the home page banner slider.
Trigger: Add or exchange photos in a slider as needed.
- Open the amazing slider app, open the appropriate slider.
- make the needed changes
- save the slider
- open the amazing slider folder on the stage server (haredFolders ▸ RxInformatics ▸ SiteSource ▸ EWI-stage.www ▸ assets▸ amazingSliders
- find the appropriate slider folder. change the name to “old_foldername” (this is only done in case you need to revert. This folder can be deleted after successful testing)
- Add a new folder named “folder name”
- Go back to the Amazing Slider app and publish.
- Once published, you have to copy and paste some of the content from the amazing slider folder”index.html” page to specific locations in the web page that holds this content. These changes are:
- copy everything that is in the body starting at the comment to “Insert to your webpage…”
- note: on making a NEW PAGE or a NEW SLIDER, you may also need to copy/paste the header info, but on an existing page, this is already in place.
Additional notes:
