You can publish messages made with your company's presentation tools and turned into pdf files or create and publish messages on the go with the simple to use publication tools.
You can also
✔ publish pictures and videos,
✔ create simple messages
✔ schedule, delete and archive pdf messages, pictures and videos.
To publish messages you need a publishing link.
Look for an email from no-reply@valota.live with a title "Your access link to _ _ _"
This link will lead you to your personal publishing tool that you can use from a laptop or a mobile device.
Create a post using your company's presentation tool
Using your company's presentation tool, eg. MS Powerpoint, you'll get the company look & feel to all of your messages without a hassle.
Create your message with the presentation tool or use an existing presentation. Multiple pages or one page makes no difference.
Best practice is to have
max 250 characters in a page and
6-8 pages per presentation at maximum
Save the presentation in PDF format
Choose correct channel from My Content
All available My Content channels can be found from the drop-down tool:
By taking your mouse on top of the Drag & Drop or choose your media field you can either drag&drop content there or use a file picker.
Supported file types can be seen in the app.
Note!
If you have video or everything is included in the presentation there is no need to add Text. When Text is added it takes half of the displays content area.Best practice tip for videos
Create a thumbnail
When you upload a video you can create a thumbnail from a selected position in the video. Just scroll the video to the point you want a thumbnail from and activate the arrow in the box.
