At this time the Map Journal app does not support time-enabled layers when you load a map into the Main Stage. The best way to accomplish this would be to publish your web map in the Time Aware template then embed it in the Map Journal as a web map. Here’s a blog post that explains the process: http://blogs.esri.com/esri/arcgis/2015/08/03/how-to-make-a-time-aware-story-map/.

For security reasons, ArcGIS.com only allows a limited set of HTML tags to be saved. All others will be stripped out when you save. Here’s an article which shows the supported HTML tags and associated attributes: http://doc.arcgis.com/en/arcgis-online/reference/supported-html.htm. You should still be able to get your desired results by using the span tag with style attribute instead of using the font tag.

At this time, ArcGIS.com does not allow for custom urls for stories. You can accomplish this by downloading the code and hosting the app code on your own server. The app can be configured with the same application id that use with the online builder so you won’t have to recreate your story.

Unfortunately you will not be able to do this with the hosted version of the bulleted layout. You would need to download the code, modify the javascript and host the customized version on your own server. The tabbed layout in the Map Series app will allow you to change the text in the tab. It functions the exact same way as the bulleted layout except the tabs are not circles.

The best way to accomplish this is to add custom CSS to the index.html page. At the top of the body section you will find a empty style tag with comments to add your CSS. The CSS3 nth-child selector (http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/sel_nth-child.asp) will allow you to target individual tabs to change their color respectively.

If you are using the builder with the “edit” url parameter, all content configuration is stored in a JSON data file on ArcGIS Online that is stored along side the application item page. Even if you use the builder from a version of the app you host and modify, it still references the item page and JSON config that is stored within “My Content” of ArcGIS online. When you move the app to your own organization’s server you will not lose your edits to the app.

Currently, the map journal app does not allow you directly upload a photo within the app, you will need to have the photo already hosted on the web. We recommend using one of the included photo services because they will automatically create a web optimized version of all the photo so your app will load quickly. If you are not able to use an external service, the other two option would be to host the photos on your own server or upload them to ArcGIS Online as a new item and share them publicly. With both of these options, you want to compress them with photoshop or a comparable tool so they load quickly on slower internet connections. Then you can reference them with their url in the app. Here's a blog post that describes uploading a photo to ArcGIS Online: Using photos stored in ArcGIS Online | ArcGIS Blog Steps to use photos in the main stage: Click on the image radio button Select the photo service or url option Follow steps on the additional screens to sign into service and select from photo from albums or paste URL. Select the position for how the photo should appear in the main stage (we recommend fill if the subject of the photo is toward the center of the photo) Steps to use photos in the side panel: Click on the image/video button shown in screenshot below Select the photo service or url option Follow steps on the additional screens to sign into service and select from photo from albums or paste URL. Add an optional caption

The last two commits in this git repo (https://github.com/ssylvia/growth-of-cities) shows the code we changed for our version of the app. You may need to change this slightly depending on what you want to show in the map. The readme in this app has instructions to set up your computer to run and build your application so it is ready for production. Part of the context map implementation requires that the web map you use be configured in a very specific way. Heres the web map we¹re using in the growth of cities story: http://www.arcgis.com/home/webmap/viewer.html?webmap=56fa6622c4f44e69af8f874411a0a11a. To create the map, you will need to add a CSV layer to a web map. No other feature collection layer types can be included in your map. Attached is the CSV we used. Required fields are index, active, any text needed to display in the tooltip, and fields needed to geocode the point (lat/long or address fields). In the active field, you must have at lease one TRUE and one FALSE (it doesn't matter which one as the app will change these as needed) value so you can symbolize through the ArcGIS online viewer. All point symbology is pulled through the web map configuration. After you add the CSV layer, remove the popups from that layer. Then symbolize the points using Unique Values on the active field. The index field determines when each point will highlighted based on the map journal position. If you open the web console on the map journal and scroll through, you should see a line that looks like this: "tpl.core.MainView - navigateStoryToIndex - 1". The number at the end is the index number you should use for that point in the CSV. If you rearrange the map journal entries, you will need to update the CSV layer with their new index. Lastly, you can update line 101 in the ContextMap.js file to make sure you are pulling the correct attribute into the tooltip. You may want to start with the original map journal source code (Esri/map-journal-storytelling-template-js · GitHub) as the age of cities version used a map journal version that is outdated with an outdated API.

I tried replicating the steps you posted above to create a the web map and shared it into our map journal template. Everything seems to work for me. Can you see the test app and see if its what you wanted: http://arcgis.com/apps/MapJournal/index.html?appid=e7e6dbcde8c24e3ab2a93dfcf5522e0a? Are you still having this issue on your end? We might need the url in the app to see if errors are being thrown. It's possible that something was corrupted when saving your web map. Can you try recreating the web map with this layer in it?

Yes, the builder is also available through the locally hosted version which is why the builder css/javascript files are included. You and access it by adding the 'edit=true' to the end of the url. For example: http://www.example.com/myMapJournal/?edit=true or if your configuring the app id through the url: http://www.example.com/myMapJournal/?appId=12as2...&edit=true

Are you using the developer download (In the code folder you will see the 'src' folder with full uncompressed source code)?. Or are you using the ready-to-deploy version (you will an 'app' folder with a couple .min files)? If you using the developer version, you can follow the developer guide to set up your computer: Esri/map-tour-storytelling-template-js · GitHub. Using the developer version requires that you run a build command to package the app for deploy. The developer guide should also have additional instruction for testing your app locally before building. If you still have issues, let is know.

Hmm, it looks like this could be an incompatibility with Pancake.io. It looks like Pancake (Dropbox Basic Usage - Pancake Docs) and font files are not included. When I load the font file directly from dropbox, it appears to display the icons correctly. However, when using the pancake URL, the icons get converted back to the normal alphanumeric characters.

Our team really enjoys using Flickr for the main hosting of our photos for stories. Flickr will allow you to upload all your photos at once into a single album. It will automatically resize the photo for you so they load fast even on slower connections. Then you can just select the Flickr album in the Story Map Journal and have all your photos in one place.

You are not missing anything. The Story Map Journal app does not currently support uploading images from the computer. When using the Story Map Tour with the option to upload images, the app is driven from a single web map and a single feature service that is hosted in your organization account. The uploaded images get stored as an attachment to this feature service. Because the Story Map Journal can contain many different web maps and or layer types, we don’t have a guaranteed place to host the image in your maps. This is an options we would like to add in the future but for the time being you are required to to host photo on your server or on a photo hosting service.
