Slots

Introduction

In concept, slots are like 'holders' for your projects. Under the Published tab in Projects, you have an overview of all your available slots. A project goes into a slot and a slot goes into your website.

Slots

1. The schedule

A slot can contain more than just one project - in fact, it can contain however many projects you wish, although only one project will be visible, or 'live', at any given time. To decide which project should be live and when, is what the schedule function does.

You can open the schedule from the Schedule button (1) on the slot header.

2. Script

The script is a small piece of text that is placed in your website's code to add a Yooba project. Simply click the Script button (2) on the slot header and copy the code snippet. Then paste this code snippet into your site's HTML code to place the project on your site.

3. Hosting alternatives

To make it even easier to make your project viewable to visitors, you can choose to create and edit a site directly through the integrated HTML editor. Then you can select a purchased domain to use for the site you've just created. Click the Hosting button (3) in the slot header to select domain and edit the site layout.

4. Slot settings

Here you will find different settings for each slot. Click on the Settings button (4) to open the dialog.

Slot settings

  • Name & Description
    The name and description of the slot. Only visible in the Back Office to help you find a specific slot
  • Default project
    Specifies which project should be used as default, i.e. be visible when there are no other projects defined for the current time period.
  • Wmode
    Change the wmode parameter of the Flash object. This is an advanced setting and most of the time you shouldn't need to change it.
