jland Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 I've been having a problem with an event that is happening over a two month time period displaying properly in the Upcoming Fader promotion spud. I want the event to just display one time because there are other events that also need to cycle through. I want them to display one at a time in the spud. However, because I have the event dates set as January 5-February 18, it wants to display the event for each day of the set including dates that have already passed. This then looks like the same event is running over and over and takes forever for the other events to display. If I change the settings to NOT include events from the past, then the event doesn't display at all even though it's dates run into the future. I have the spud settings set to Start Date: Current Day and End Date: Current Day. I thought this would fix it to only recognized the event for a single day which would then only have it display once in a cycle. However, it is still reverting back to January 15 and running each day in a cycle. Does this make sense? How do I set this spud so that it only pulls the current days events and cycles those?

Steve A Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 For this Promotion Spud, there is a setting for "Events per page". When the value is set to one (1) this tells the spud to only show 1 event continuously. Since there is more than 1 event on the calendar that should be fading in and out on this spud, you want to increase this to possibly 2 or more. You can go higher depending on how many events you want the spud to "cycle" through. In addition to this setting, you can also edit the Fader Settings for the "Events per group". The default is set to 5 and you may want to change this to 1, which tells the spud to only display 1 event at a time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
