Campaign cycling

Campaign cycling is a feature to control how many Campaigns of a Playlist play each time the Playlist is triggered in the Player loop. In order to follow this tutorial step by step, review beforehand how to create a Campaign Playlist and how to publish it. Then, read the instructions below:

  1. Go to the “Playlist” folder on the Content page of your screenpublishing account.
  2. Select a Playlist.

  4. Hit “Save and Publish” on the top-right corner.
  5. Campaign cycling is already set! Now, let’s check how it appears in the Player’s loop. Click on the Player under “Published to these Players”.

    On your screenpublishing platform, the Playlist will still be shown in sequence (Campaign A > Campaign 1 > Campaign 2) in the Player Loop.

The Player Loop will look as below. Note that Campaign A, B and C belong to the Playlist.campaign cycling loop

Note: You will not get this view in your platform. It is meant to illustrate how the Player will behave when Campaign cycling is set.
