Slideshow layout not available

arahman_mdmajid — Thu, 11 Aug 2022 12:13:55 GMT

I am trying to add the slideshow layout in my story map but the layout is not available.

As you can see, only the floating and docked panels are available. I started the story map from scratch.

I was watching the ESRI UC's intro to story maps and its shows all three layouts, as seen below

Is there a specific type/template that include the slideshow layout?

@arahman_mdmajid -- I would guess that you are using ArcGIS StoryMaps on ArcGIS Enterprise. Is that correct? You can review this table in our documentation to see which features are available in Online compared to each version of Enterprise.

ArcGIS StoryMaps on ArcGIS Enterprise feature comparison—ArcGIS StoryMaps | Documentation

The migration of slideshow to a layout of sidecar is currently only available in the ArcGIS Online version of ArcGIS StoryMaps and won't be available until the 11.1 version of ArcGIS Enterprise.

@OwenGeoYes, you are right. We are using ArcGIS Enterprise version 10.9, which doesn't have this feature.

As I saw in the comparison charts (ArcGIS StoryMaps on ArcGIS Enterprise feature comparison), our version doesn't have the slideshow layout. We'll have to upgrade to the newer version to utilize it, which doesn't seem like anytime soon since we just upgraded to 10.9.1.

Do you recommend any workaround for it? May some manual customization after the Storymaps are deployed.

Sorry, there is no way to manually customize your portal to obtain this feature on your current version.
