This extra is discontinued
This extra was originally built by Sterc and distributed by modmore as a Premium Extra, however in 2020 Sterc decided they can no longer offer the support required for it to qualify as premium. The extras then became available as open source for some time as a courtesy, but have since been discontinued from modmore entirely.
This extra may still be available via the MODX.com package provider or GitHub.
Unfortunately we can no longer provide standard support for this extra. You may request (paid) support via Sterc or our Premium MODX Support, or look for the relevant GitHub repositories.
Broadcast anything in your office, store, or school with Digital Signage. Manage slides, broadcasts and many screens from a central place.

What is digital signage?
Digital signage, sometimes called narrow casting, is when you use a monitor or TV screen to broadcast into a physical space. This can be anything: sales, call to actions, news, social media posts, and more.
With our MODX extra aptly called "Digital Signage" you can manage slideshows to broadcast to different players (screens) in your office, retail area, or school.
Works with your hardware
To use Digital Signage, you'll need a monitor and an internet-capable device with a browser. HDMI Sticks like the Asus Chromebit or Intel Compute Stick are perfect: plug them in, connect to the WiFi, and start broadcasting.
Digital Signage gives you a special URL for each monitor you want to use. Once connected, you can manage the broadcast and schedules from within MODX.
-
Powerful Scheduling
Use the built-in scheduling to put your signage on auto-pilot. Show different broadcasts per day, like a "fun activities this weekend" broadcast on Fridays. Hosting an event? Prepare a special broadcast to play the day of the event.
-
Manage all your screens from one place
Once you've connected your screens with Digital Signage, you can view their status and change the broadcasts from your MODX installation. Remotely, no matter where the screens are physically located.
-
Simple connections
Connecting to your screens couldn't be simpler: point its browser to the special URL provided from the Digital Signage panel, and you're done. Digital Signage will automatically keep the screen up-to-date.
-
Design to match your brand
Digital Signage looks stunning out of the box, but you're in full control to change the templating to fit your branding perfectly.
You're in full control, with unlimited slides, broadcasts and players and custom templates to make it fit your brand.
Third Party Extra
DigitalSignage is a free extra by Sterc. It does not include support. You may get (paid) help with extras from Sterc by reaching out to the Sterc Service team or with a Premium MODX Support subscription.
