Record Showcase

You may have some Calm records in your catalogue database without images attached to them, that you wish to bring to the attention of visitors to your CalmView site. The Record Showcase is a feature which enables you to display a small number (we recommend 8-10) of selected Calm records in a "showcase" layout. For example you may wish to select records which illustrate a certain subject.

Here is an example of the Record Showcase. Please note: the example screen will open a new window, when you have finished and wish to return to this page, use the cross in the top right corner to close the window.

When you choose the Record Showcase option (underneath Showcases) in the Configurator, a screen as shown in this example, will appear. Please note: the example screen will open a new window, when you have finished and wish to return to this page, use the cross in the top right corner to close the window.

The following paragraphs describe the fields shown here, with some guidance for input. Fields highlighted in red in the Configurator are mandatory.
