Uploadable posters for time-based documents

Posters are documents that can be manually supplied in a time-based manner. Example use cases are cantine menus, that are provided weekly by an external supplier, who will only get privileges to upload this poster as a PDF file.

Poster files can be uploaded for a defined time period, and AlekSIS will then deliver the currently valid version under a stable menu item and URL.

Defining poster groups

Uploadable posters are categorised into poster groups, with each poster group representing one time-based document that AlekSIS will provide. Each poster group has:

  • A name
  • A URL slug making up the final, stable URL
  • A schedule defining the cycle for providing the document
  • A default PDF file for periods for which no document is uploaded

Permissions to upload documents are managed per poster group as well.

Creating poster groups

Poster groups are created from the menu under the Documents → Poster groups menu item. After clicking the Create new poster group button or the Edit action for any poster group, the following form allows editing the details of the poster group.

Create or edit a poster group

In addition to the properties explained above, the form provides two options to configure if and how the document will be presented to users. It is possible to include or exclude the document from the main menu, and to allow access by anonymous users. Documents that are hidden from the menu can be used if they should only be accessible through links from external sites, or loaded by a digital signage system.
