How do I add a What’s On module?

A What's On Module is one of the three Content Modules available in the Tapendium solution, with the other two being the Information and Promotions Modules.

Adding a What's On Module follows the same procedure as adding other Content Modules. See 'How do I add a Content Module?

The What's On Module is best used for presenting large or complex amounts of information that is organised in categories. While it is generally used for presenting options of activities and entertainment options in a city or surrounding area, other possible uses for the What's On Module include showcasing hotel room types, listing conference schedules, or promoting sister properties.

Step 1: Add a module from Content Management → Content Module → Add Module. Then fill in the details and click Save.

Step 2: After saving the, the new What’s On module appears on the Content Management list.

Step 3: You will now need to add the content pages to populate the Module.

You can now start adding content Pages to the new What's On Module. For how to do this see: How do I add a What's On Page?

How do I create a What’s On category?

Categories are used to structure information in the Tapendium solution.

What's On content Pages must be assigned to a Category to appear on tablet screens.

Step 1: Go to the What’s On module → Categories

The Pages are listed underneath the Category that they are assigned to.

How do I create a What’s On Page?

There are two ways to create a What's On Page: from the What's On Category list in the Admin Portal, or from the What's On list.

If you create a Page from a What's On Category, it will appear on the list under that Category when you save. See Option 1.

If you create a Page from the What's On list, you will have to manually add it to a Category so it appears on tablet screens. See Option 2.

Option 1: Create a new What's On Page from What's On Categories list

Step 1: Click on ‘Add Page' after going to What’s On module → Categories

Step 2: Click on ‘Add New Page’

Step 3: Fill in the details that appear on the pop-up box. See the table below for guidance.

4. Select Group/Exclude Group	You can choose to make the What's On Page visible/not visible to select Locations. For instance, if an event is available to a specific audience such as a conference group. For more information on Location Groups including how to set one up, see Location Groups Example:

Option 2: Create a new Content Page from What's On list

Step 1: Go to What’s On module → Create Page

When you click Create Page, you will see the same Create Pages window as in Option 1. Enter the content for the What's On Page.

The above example is creating a new What's On Page for the Parliament House attraction. After you click Save, the What's On Page will not appear on tablet screens until you add it to a Category. You will have to search for it and add it to a Category.

Step 3: The Page now appears on tablet screens.

If you have made the What's On Page Active, then it will appear on the tablet screen under the Category
you saved it under.
In this example, the new Parliament House Page appears on the tablet screen under the Museums
Category.
You can repeat the procedure to add the Page to another Category if appropriate. For example the
Parliament House Page could appear in the Museum and Historical Sites Categories.

How do I stop a What's On Page from displaying?

If you want to stop a What's On Page from displaying on tablets, you may delete the Page, remove it from a Category or make it Inactive.

• If you delete the Page it will be gone forever, but if you remove it from a Category, you may re-add it again later.

Option 1: Remove a What's On Page from a Category

• Click the delete icon (x) on the What's On Category list.

• You will get a warning box, click OK to delete the Page.

• You will get a warning box, click OK to delete the Page. The Page will be deleted from the Tapendium software. You should only delete a What's On Page if you are sure you never want to use that content again.

• You can change the Status of a What's On Page from Active to Inactive from either the What's On
  List view

How do I change a What's On Menu Layout?

It is simple to change from one What's On Menu Layout to another.

Step 1: In Admin Portal, go to Content Modules

How to use the What's On Module to show conference agendas?

The What's On Module is useful for presenting information in categories. It can be used to present conference agendas and itineraries on tablet screens.

There are 3 Menu Layouts available to present this information. In the below example, we will use the Compact Menu layout, but the Classic and List Menu Layouts are also useful. The Menu Layout can be easily changed if you want to use a different format.

To set up a What's On Module to show conference agendas:

1. Set up the Location Group that includes the conference delegate rooms. See Location Groups . This way, the conference information is targeted to only the attendees of the conference.

2. Add the days or sessions as Categories. The Categories appear on the left-hand side of the tablet screen. When tapped on the Pages list on the right-hand side. The Categories function like headings that organise the Pages.

3. Add Pages to the Categories. The conference sessions, activities, workshops, or events are added as individual Pages. Within the pages, you can link to external websites, PDFs, booking requests, or other Pages for more information or content if necessary. Please note: creating links on a What's On-Page is the same process as for Promotions Pages.

4. Create a Navigation Button to appear on the Navigation Screen so delegates can see the information. The button can be set up, using Location Groups, so that only the conference delegates see it.

5. Create a Welcome Message, to appear on the tablet Start screen, just for conference delegates.

6. Send a Message to the tablet screen letting delegates know conference information.

Step 1: Add Categories - e.g. Days

Step 2: Create new Pages - e.g. Agenda items, activities, or sessions

In this example, we are creating a Page called Golf Day and targeting it at the Group called 'Technology Conference'. See How do I add a Location Group? for how to set up a Location Group to allow content targeting. You can also set a start and end date for the appearance of the information.

The Pages appear as a list down the right-hand side of the screen. You can add any number of Pages, which will scroll vertically.

How to use the What's On Module to list your other hotel properties?

The What's On Module is useful for showcasing your other hotel properties, especially if you have properties across a number of regions.

Step 1: In the Admin Portal, create countries as Categories

Create each country as a Category which you will then populate with Pages that are the hotel listing
with information about the hotel.

Step 2: Create each hotel listing as a Page in a Category

Add content Pages to the Categories. You can create a new Page, or add an existing Page to the Category.
