Admin users (Global administrators or Content administrators) can add user defined thumbnails to items in the Catalogue.
Thumbnails should have a 3:2 aspect ratio. The minimum resolution required is 450x300px, however you can use higher resolutions, such as 600x400px or 900x600px (recommended). The higher the resolution of the thumbnail, the more data a user will need to download to their browser or mobile device, so you should bear this in mind when creating thumbnails.
To add a thumbnail image
- Log in to your Administration portal, as either a Global administrator or Content administrator (with Owner permissions for the item you want to delete).
- On the NAVIGATION pane, click Catalogue.
- On the Results page, click the content item you want to add a thumbnail to.
- On the Content page, in the THUMBNAIL section, click the item's thumbnail image.
- In the Media dialog box, either:
- Select one of the ore-defined images, and then click Done.
- Click Choose a File, locate the required image, click Open, and then click Done.
- Drag-and-drop the required thumbnail onto the Media dialog box, and then click Done.
- On the Content page, click Save.
Once a thumbnail has been uploaded once, we recommend that you use the following process
- Log in to your Administration portal, as either a Global administrator or Content administrator (with Owner permissions for the item you want to delete).
