Step 2
Large Events
Social Media Wall
- Twitter requires PHP Authentication that occurs on the same domain.
- Some Facebook functionality requires special tags in the header.
- These items prohibit 100% integration inside BBIS.
Considerations for BBIS
Upcoming Event Tiles
- Custom content part for individual editing
