A Welcome or Login modal is ideal to provide some instructions to your users when they first come to your video library. Generally they are used to display a welcome message, and prompt the user to login before they start navigating around your site.
To Setup a Welcome Modal:
- In Admin, browse to Registration
- Select Advanced Authentication Settings from the accordion menu
- browse down to Welcome Modal
- Select Simple Modal from the drop-down menu
- Display First Time Only: turn this on if you only want the login modal to appear once. If the user continues to browse your video library without logging in, they will continue to be prompt to login when they return to your library homepage.
- Welcome Modal Size: Select small, medium or larger from the options
