How to Create an Exhibit On Omeka
- Select 'Add Exhibit' from the menu on the left side of your page. You'll want to make sure you have installed the Exhibit Builder plugin, which will help you create a content-rich, professional looking exhibit. Exhibit Builder can be accessed from the Plugins tab.
- Fill out Exhibit Metadata, including elements like the Title of your exhibit, the Slug (abbreviated name of website which appears in URL), and a Description of your exhibit.
- Scroll down the Exhibit Metadata page, to the where the Cover Image and Pages metadata section are. This is where you will add pages of items to your exhibit.
- When you add a page you give it a title, slug, and content of its own. Content includes items from your Omeka collection and whatever text you want to directly accompany those items.
