How Do I Use The Webpage Content App in CMS V2?

What You’ll Need

• A compatible digital signage player e.g. Xhibit, BrightSign, etc.
• XhibitSignage Software with a supported feature package
• Internet Connectivity
• Access to the Webpage content app

Using the Webpage Content App

• Let’s walk through how to use the webpage content app. First, navigate to the “Add Media” page.
• Next click on, the “Add Media” page, click on the “Web” tab.

• Click on the Web URL App icon. Then enter the Web Page Url Link for the Webpage that you would like to display.
• The Allow Scrolling option allows you to scroll on the webpage for Touch Devices or while plugging in a mouse to your device.
• The Parameterized post feature allows you to pass additional query strings along with your web url. Query strings are extra bits of information – sent as key/value pairs – that get submitted to a server when requesting a page. This extra information is often used to create custom pages or protect a page with login credentials.
  •  Any query strings should be provided in the key=value format, with each new pair separated by &
  •  example: date=today&name=tom&results=100
• Once you have chosen and customized the Webpage content app to your liking, name and save it to your media library for use in playlists, templates, or schedules!

• Note: If the Web URL doesn’t preview, schedule the Web URL to your device as a test. Due to security reasons, the Web URL may not preview on the CMS. The Web URL preview is not always exact due to this security, so if content doesn’t preview this doesn’t mean it doesn’t work.
