Display Screens

Overview

Display Screens are physical digital displays (TVs, monitors, kiosks) managed through the platform. Each screen shows a rotating set of content — lessons, materials, KeyRings, or custom announcements.

Creating a Display Screen

  1. Navigate to Educator → Display Screens (educator/displayscreens.php)
  2. Click New Display Screen
  3. Enter: name, venue/location, capacity (for seating information), and optional schedule
  4. Save — the screen is created and ready for content assignment

Managing Display Items

Each screen shows a playlist of items. To manage:

  1. Open the screen → Manage Items (educator/displayscreen-manage.php)
  2. Add Item (educator/displayitem-input.php) — select a lesson, material, or KeyRing
  3. Set display duration (how long each item shows before rotating)
  4. Drag items to reorder the playlist
  5. Remove items by clicking the delete icon

Viewing a Screen

Single Display View (educator/displayscreen-single.php) renders the screen's content full-screen:

Screen Settings

  1. Screen Settings (educator/displayscreen-select.php?a=settings) — edit name, venue, capacity
  2. Delete Screen (educator/displayscreen-select.php?a=delete) — remove a screen and its items

Organisation-Level Screens

Organisations can also manage their own display screens independently:
