Step 1 - Fill in the "Item Name" field

  • Enter the title of the item. The name will display on both the Admin (the back-end) and on the website (the front-end).

  • If you wish for your item to have no name to display on the website, we do not recommend leaving this field blank. This can be turned off through the stack item's settings.

Step 2 - Select an Item Type

Select a type for your stack item. There are many types you can choose from, but 90% of the time you will be utilizing the "Content Editor" and "Ad Zone" types.

These are the available item types you can use:

  • Content Editor - An editor where text, images, audio and / or videos can be added in. Your go-to item to set up content.

    • Has a "Source" button in the editor to manage or add in code; which can be used to put in code for a widget.

      • Although, some code will not work in the editor, so it is usually better to use the "Widget" item type.

  • Ad Zone - Link an ad zone from the Ad Manager within your item - to display ads on your page.

  • Ad Zone - Mobile Only - Same thing as a regular "Ad Zone" item type, but the ad zone will only display on mobile devices.

  • Adsonica - Display a custom ad with playable audio that was created on the service Adsonica.

  • Calendar List - Display calendar events as a list. It can display events from the calendar of one website, or calendars of all websites, within your group.

    • A limit on how many events should display can be set up in the item's settings.

  • Calendar Widget - A widget that displays a "mini calendar". This won't display calendar events in the widget, but you can click a date to view events you set up on that date.

  • Concert Calendar (Manage under TOOLS) - Display rows of Concert Calendar events.

    • The item displays three events per row.

    • A limit on how many events should display can be set up in the item's settings.

  • Coupons - Display a list of coupons that users can download.

  • Custom Form (Manage under TOOLS) - Display a custom form within the item.

    • This item type is not available for the homepage or the side columns.

  • Gift Certificate Shopping Cart - Display a "Shopping Cart" button for gift certificates.

    • This item type is only available if you purchased the use of the "Gift Certificates" tools for your website.

  • Image Slider - Display an image slider / flash gallery within the item.

  • Inventory Search Form - A form for users to search for an car in the website's inventory based on the criteria a user will set the fields to.

    • This item type is only available if you purchased the use of the "Dealership Tools" for your website.

  • On Air Now - A widget that displays a jock or show that is currently on air.

    • Relies on the On-Air Schedule that was set up for the website.

    • There are many templates available to change the look of the widget.

  • Photo Widget - Display a list of photos from one photo gallery or all of them.

  • Polls (Manage under TOOLS) - Display a poll that users can vote in.

  • RSS/Blog Feed (Manage under TOOLS) - Display content from a blog feed or an RSS feed. You can check out the articles listed below for more information about blogs and feeds.

  • Tradio Search - Display the list of items that were posted by users. It also includes a search feature to find a specific item.

    • This item type is only available if you purchased the use of the "Tradio" tools for your website.

  • Widget - An item type to add in a code for a widget within the item.

    • More convenient to use for widgets than the "Content Editor" type as some codes won't work in Content Editors.

  • YouTube Channel - Display videos from a YouTube Channel within a list.

    • Relies on the "YouTube" tool to get a channel and its videos set up as a feed.

Step 3 - Select "Add Item"

Selecting "Add Item" will add the item to your page.

Schedule (Optional)

Set up a schedule for the stack item to enable / disable on specific dates and times. This is optional and these fields should be left blank if the item is to be placed on the page immediately and remain on the page.
