We are looking into possibly setting up touch-screen kiosks with targeted groups of content (depending on the location, purpose, etc.). If anyone has used RedDot for a similar purpose, would you be interested in sharing your approach or any information that would be helpful to get started with this effort?

 

Thanks for any information about this.

Hi Romola,

Just want to clarify, do you meaning accessing the published content from a touch-screen kiosk, or managing content via Management Server via a touch-screen kiosk?

Hello Jian,

 

I meant to ask about accessing published content, and not performing any other tasks. This would be for information kiosks. We may want to offer content that is specific to the location of a kiosk, so we might have several groups of published content, with customized variants. We would like to limit what we offer at each kiosk (it would not be a PC for performing other tasks.)

 

Thanks.
Romola

Hi Romola,

Oh I see.  In that case, managing it like any other pages would be fine.  Also, no need to create another project variant, just create new content classes or CSS for the project section specific to the kiosks.

Interesting history: reddot was first developed for information kiosks.  "You are here, at this reddot".
