Adding a content carousel.

Using the Rotate Content macro, you can insert a revolving series of content of your choosing: text, images, videos, macros, or a combination of those — whatever you can normally insert into a block can be rotated with this method.

The macro pulls in content from a source page set up with a series of content blocks. The rotating display can occur randomly, or in a sequential order.

Create a Source Page.

This page can be located wherever you'd like. To keep it out of search, however, we recommend either stashing it in a resource space, or otherwise moving it outside the page tree hierarchy.

Add two or more blocks to the Source Page.

Try adding an image and some text to each block.

Identify or create a page for your gallery.

Insert the Rotate Content macro.

Insert your Source Page from Step 1 into the Page Title field.

This field defines the page from which to display block content.

Set display effects, such as delay, transition type, and control settings.
