The Publisher-managed “Home” Page.
Hi.
I'm trying to get the Publisher-managed “Home” Page to work.
I think I've done all the steps according to this tutorial: http://theturninggate.net/2014/07/the-p … home-page/.
It will only show the thumbnail view of the pictures in the intended album - not the full screen version.
Do I need Stage or what?

Re: The Publisher-managed “Home” Page.
A link to your page would help.
If done correctly, it should show your images using whatever template you've selected for the 'pages-gallery' album. That can be any template created by CE4 Gallery or CE4 Stage.

If you're expecting the full-screen flip gallery or a Galleria slide show, then you need Stage

Sorry for the missing link - silly me 
but here we go: http://www.fotopluss.no.
Yes I'm expecting the full-screen flip gallery. It's working with the gallery option but not when I switch to the "Publisher" option.
I have the CE4 Web Publishing Bundle so whats the deal with the extra Stage module?

If you want to manage the pages gallery using CE4 Publisher, and use the full-screen flip gallery style, then you will need to use CE4 Stage to create a full-screen gallery template. The tutorial says as much.

Re: The Publisher-managed “Home” Page.
To control the Home page gallery with Publisher you need to use one of the gallery plugins to create the template that Publisher will use to create the gallery that appears on the home page. That means either CE4 Gallery or CE4 Stage. Since you want the flip gallery, you need Stage.
You don't have to control your Home page gallery with Publisher though. You can simply change it by replacing the images in Pages, re-exporting, and uploading.
