Transforms wiki pages into HTML5 presentations

Description

Allows to generate a slideshow directly from a wiki page, using Bootstrap Carousel for displaying the slides. Handy for writing presentations quickly and for taking advantage of the power of cascading stylesheets for designing advanced layouts that will help you carry your message across.

Features

• Provides a custom sheet to view a wiki page as a presentation
• Adapts dimensions for the presentation to show up on a similar manner on all screen sizes.

Works best in full screen mode.

A demo presentation is bundled with this application and can serve as an example of how to use it.

Usage

• Create a page by choosing the Presentation type
  • Use page title for the presentation title page
  • Use heading level 2 for slide titles
  • Add content to each section
• Click on button "Present"
• Press Enter, space, right arrow to advance; Backspace, left arrow to go back

Note that installing Extensions when being offline is currently not supported and you'd need to use some complex manual method.

You can also use the following manual method, which is useful if this extension cannot be installed with the Extension Manager or if you're using an old version of XWiki that doesn't have the Extension Manager:

1. Log in the wiki with a user having Administration rights
2. Go to the Administration page and select the Import category
3. Follow the on-screen instructions to upload the downloaded XAR
4. Click on the uploaded XAR and follow the instructions
