Creating a Flashcard

Note: This feature is available to Project Owners and Project Administrators on the Admin Dashboard. 

A Flashcard is a content card that Players can view but not interact with. Flashcards are commonly used to share learning content, instructions, videos, or information before Players move on to complete Challenges.

To create a Flashcard:

1. Select the Topic where you want to create the Flashcard.
2. On the Topic Manager page, click "+New Content".
3. Select "Flashcard".
4. Choose how you want to create the Flashcard.
   • Select Create a new Flashcard to fill in the Flashcard details manually.
   • Select Select from a Flashcard Template to use an available template. Learn more here. 
5. If you are creating a new Flashcard, click Create a new Flashcard.
6. Fill in the necessary details that describe the Flashcard:
   1. Upload a Card Image that illustrates the content. Alternatively, select an image from the Gametize Image Library or Pixabay Image Library.
   2. Enter a Flashcard Title that clearly describes the content.
   3. Add a Flashcard Description, if needed.
   4. Embed External Media, if needed.
   5. Add the content to a Content Category, if needed.
7. Configure any Advanced Settings, if required.
   1. Scheduling the Flashcard to publish
   2. Sending a notification to Players about the newly created Flashcard
   3. Locking the Flashcard - Note that you should not lock a Flashcard using another Flashcard (as there is no way to unlock it). Instead, lock a Flashcard using another Challenge.
   4. Enter Event Information and Embed a Map, if needed. 
8. Click Save Details to create the Flashcard.

NOTE: Content is automatically published when created.
