News Billboard
by Objectify
Allowing display of an organisation's news (or other relevant content) on a customisable carousel
The “News Billboard” add-in for SharePoint Online is an application that is designed to display contents of your organisation’s SharePoint site, on a news carousel. This allows site designers to rapidly build a landing page or any other page for a corporate home site by providing one of the most wanted and frequently used building blocks of a SharePoint site as an App Part.
Key features:
- Supports sourcing its data from any list/library on your host SharePoint site
- Allows filtering and sorting of news items
- Customizable look & feel
- Responsive design
- Simple and Smooth design
This application supports all devices including desktop, tablet and mobile phones. However, as this application’s app part is to be hosted on a SharePoint page, and since SharePoint pages are not designed to be completely responsive, the app part cannot be responsive on its own. However, if a SharePoint Page has been customized to be responsive, adding in “News Billboard” app part, does not need any further modification to the styling as it is responsive.
This add-in supports IE 10, Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome and Safari. Mozilla Firefox has not been tested.
