Publisher managed Home page with slide show

I'm trying to have a publisher managed home page with the Galleria slide show.

I currently have a publisher managed home page, using a gallery installed in ttg-be/templates/gallery.  This generates a grid view of images, but I don't see how to  enable a slide show.

Thanks for any ideas.

Re: Publisher managed Home page with slide show

you need to use CE4 Stage, set to Galleria, to create the template

Thanks Rod
I don't believe Stage was included in the web publishing bundle. 
Is CE4 Stage required to have a publisher managed home page?

Re: Publisher managed Home page with slide show

A little more info:
When I initially set up the home page using Pages, I had the Galleria slideshow enabled enabled.
Then I added in the Publisher and am able to manage the home page (and galleries) via LR Library, but don't see how to get back to the home page Galleria slideshow - and have the publisher managed home page.
Thanks

Re: Publisher managed Home page with slide show

Stage isn't required to have a Publisher managed home page. It is required if you wish that page to be a Galleria slideshow. Otherwise you canuse CE4 Gallery and  have CE4 standard or freewall masonry gallery.


Pages includes a Galleria slide show, but that one is not managed by Publisher. To manage with Publisher you need to create a template from one of the plug-ins that can act as a gallery: CE4 Gallery or CE4 Stage. Stage is the one that can create a Galleria slide show.
If you still want a Galleria slideshow on your home page but don't want to buy Stage, the don't use the Publisher managed home page option. Just fill the Pages filmstrip with the images you want shown in the slideshow.
Then to change those images, put different images in the filmstrip, export, and upload again.

Re: Publisher managed Home page with slide show

Ok thanks much; that clarifies it.
I'll get the Stage module to enable a publisher managed slideshow on the home page.

Re: Publisher managed Home page with slide show

I hope you like Stage. It's probably my favorite. Lots of cool things you can do with it.
