The template shows you how your background image and thus your tile view will be seen on the platform.

The yellow highlighted area represents your entire background image that will later be displayed on your company profile.

The pink highlighted area cuts out the centered part of your background image and will appear as a tile in the exhibitor area. For your background image (2560 x 640 px) and tile (640 x 640 px) to display correctly, it is especially important that the dimensions are accurate.

Tip: We generally recommend a wallpaper or mood image and advise against using an image with a lot of text, as texts or fonts may be cropped later in the tile view.

Depending on what is included on your Media Package (Click here for an overview) you can present one or more products. after clicking on your self-service link, you will be directed to the editing interface, procced to the “Products” tab where you can add and remove products to your profile.

The products are displayed on the detail page of your company profile and on the Products section of the event platform.

It is recommended to create your product presentation in German and English.

You can decide the order in which the products will be listed on your detail page. You can do that by entering their desired position in the Position on detail page data fields. By default, data input fields are filled with a 0 and are shown in random order on the detail page. It is important to note that any products left with a 0 in the Position on detail page data input field will be displayed at the top of the list. It’s also possible for more than one product to have the same number in the data input field - in that case, those products will be positioned accordingly in relation to products with higher or lower numbers but will have a random order among themselves. For example, if three products are saved in position 3, they will be positioned below the product in position 2 and above the product in position 4; however, those three products will have a random order between themselves.

You can remove a product by clicking on the appropriate button.

You can drag and drop the desired files in the Add more media box or click on it to explore and find the file manually on your PC. There are no restrictions for file types for images, videos, and documents that you want to upload, but there is a size restriction of 500 MB per file. Additionally, only images and videos will have the preview option within the browser, and all other files have to be downloaded before they can be viewed. You will have the preview option for all images regardless of the file type, but the video previews depend on what file types are supported by the browser you’re using. MP4 and WEBM videos are supported for a preview by most web browsers.

Once the file is uploaded, you have a drop-down that enables you to enter the Title and Subtitle of the file in the respective text input fields, in English and German. Additionally, files can be downloaded again once they are uploaded or removed by using the appropriate buttons.
