Kiosk Mode Slide Shows
Auctria allows you to display various styles of Slide Shows via the Kiosk Mode feature set.

Pressing the spacebar will pause the Kiosk Mode's automatic transition from slide to slide. You can then use your cursor keys to advance the slide show manually as needed or press the spacebar again to restart the automatic slide advance.
To access the Kiosk Mode Slide Shows, from the main Event Dashboard, click Event Website Slide Shows. This will open the Kiosk Mode Slide Shows page.
