Creating Your Local Resource
If you are creating a Local Product, a Local Customisation, or adding any Promotional or materials to anything you'll have to upload the resources you've made as 'Local Resources'. To do this follow the steps below.
Go to Resources -> 'Add New'.
- Give the Resource a title.
Please note: do not use abbreviations, users will need appropriately descriptive titles. - Assign the Primary language to the resource. You can add translations to these later.
- Assign a Resource Tag to the resource:
- Resource Categories is used to decide which category it will sit within.
Firstly choose if it's a "Material" (guides, docs etc.) or "Promotional" (banners, posters etc.)
Then assign it to a Category, such as "Videos". - Choose the Resource Type depending on what you're uploading. This will change what upload options you get in sections 7.
- Relate it to the product(s) this item would be relevant for. Many items would apply to all Products, such as Banners.
- This section will look different depending on what 'Resource Type' you choose. But either way, you upload or link the content here, and then give it a Thumbnail image (if it's a promotional Resource)
Please note: If you are uploading video's you will need to link them from Vimeo. - You can drag and drop other Related Documents (Resources). This feature is not utilised much.
Click Publish and your resource will available to everyone who is running the select Product(s) in the assigned Primary Language.
The Aspect Ratio of Thumbnails for Promotional Resources is 719x283, which can be scaled up as much as you want.
