The documentation is pretty vague about how to get edit access to content. Anne Balsamo and I were part of the team that developed the 30-Year History of AIDS and the AIDS Memorial Quilt timelines. We would like to update them before showing them at SIGGRAPH in August but can't figure out who to ask nor how to edit in secret until we are ready to release.

Did you edit through the authoring tools? Can you log in to your account? If you can log in, please let me know if the AIDS Memorial Quilt timeline is associated with your account. Thank you.

I can login (username=mrdale) but I don’t see anything that would indicate that I can edit either of A 30 Year History of Aids or AIDS Memorial Quilt (which is actually contained in A 30 Year History of Aids
There were no public authoring tools when these timelines were authored (summer 2012). It happened by magic at one of the development sites.

Thanks!
Dale.

We can associate the timeline with you but given that this was curated content and created without the authoring tools, I'm not sure how this will work. We will look into it and figure it out though. Do you know what you want to update specifically?

We would like to add some events in the 2012-2015 area and clean up some text and possibly replace some images.
Thanks!

Okay, we'll figure out how best to do this. Will get back to you early next week.

  1. Go to current AIDS timeline at URL http://www.chronozoom.com/chronozoomer#/t39e69fbe-6857-42cd-bd77-e12624ced37b/t3220d102-53dd-4c0e-9349-abaa38dfdd66
  2. Click the copy timeline icon
  3. Create/login new standard ChronoZoom account
  4. Create a new a collection, click the paste timeline icon
  5. Edit/add new exhibits as needed.
  6. For existing exhibits to make thumbnails appear, just click edit on the exhibit, make no changes and click save. This forces the thumbnail system to regenerate.
  7. When all changes finished, the new updated timeline can be copy pasted onto the URL location in step 1.

alterm4nn will reply with instructions on what you need to do if you want to add new content since this content is housed in our system.

@mrdale1958 Instruction provided by @loriada is well-detailed, except for last paragraph - I would rather change link in "featured" content to your new collection.

If you have any new media (images/docs) content that you think should be stored on ChronoZoom servers - please leave me a note, I'll send you info about uploading procedure.

Everything worked as described (Except one doesn't click "save" in #5 it's
actually Update Exhibit

Thanks! I will get my content folks working on this.

I'm not entirely sure what the criteria is for " think should be stored on
ChronoZoom servers " Can you elaborate?

Thanks a gazillion!
Dale.

@mrdale1958 it's easy - if you have any content that you cannot publish yourself for some reason. For example, if you don't want to use your own onedrive to host images.

Thanks David,

Eugene will update the link on the featured section of the homepage.
To make thumbnails render in your exhibits, edit each exhibit then click update.

Optional:
You can apply a custom background image to your collection (replacing the default cosmos/stars image). Click the pencil icon in the lower left corner.
You can also apply a background image to each timeline if desired. There is a background URL field when editing each timeline.

Hi again,

One last question, is there any way we can have the new updated content
posted using the old URL? The reason I ask is because we have printed
postcards that utilize the old URL, and we cannot change the link shortener
which points there. That would help us out greatly!

thank you,
david

@mrdale1958 can you please specify the link you have used? Was it direct link to timeline or shorted one?

I believe he has a URL shorter that cannot be updated pointing to the “A 30 Year History of AIDS” on the featured content home:

@mrdale1958 I've pasted new items that I spotted into curated canvas (Chronozoomer collection), but there could be some minor changes that I missed. Please check - http://www.chronozoom.com/chronozoomer#/t39e69fbe-6857-42cd-bd77-e12624ced37b/t3220d102-53dd-4c0e-9349-abaa38dfdd66

I cannot remove old timeline and paste new with all content because all id's will change and your link wouldn't work.
