Virtual Ceremony - Adding Participants

Virtual Ceremony - Adding Participants

Overview

If you are updating, adding, or removing slides in the Virtual Portal, you must FIRST update these slides online in the MarchingOrder Director to generate the new slide. Follow these instructions to publish slide additions and changes to your virtual ceremony portal, whether it’s hosted on a MarchingOrder site or embedded on your own web page via iFrame.

NOTE: You will receive an email as soon as your virtual ceremony portal is ready for you to make edits and customizations. Once your data has been processed and you receive your MarchingOrder software, your graduates will be published to the Participants Tab.

Instructions

1. Use your MarchingOrder Director software to add and edit your student information and export a new slide image for them. Slides will be automatically saved to the Saved Slides folder.



2. Login to your Virtual Portal at https://virtualportal.training.marchingorder.com with the same login credentials as your MarchingOrder Assistant website.
3. Select the correct ceremony at the top of the page and click on the Participants tab.



4. Click the Add Participants button on the left and fill in the "display name", "slide alt text", and the filters: click Save.
NOTE: The “Alt Text” field should contain all text that is shown on the slide, including name, degree type and honors when applicable.
5. Click Save in the Add Participants box, then click Save at the top of the page.
6. Once all your additions are complete, click Publish to Live.
