Homepage customization

Hello,

 

We  plan to migrate all of our organization's videos to MS Stream by Q1 2018.

We will create groups shared with all the organization and channels in these groups.

 

Question:

- Is it possible to select specific channels and to flag them as "featured" or "trending" to force their display on the homepage?

- Is there a way to customize the Carousel banner with specific contents? 

 

Thanks

    As mentioned above we do support highlighting/spotlighting up to 5 videos on the home page of stream. We don't have support for spotlighting groups/channels, sorry.

     

    Would be great for you to add that idea to the idea forum: http://aka.ms/StreamIdeas

     

    For the spotlight videos, we'll be turning this feature on fully in the coming weeks. But we did enable it to be tried out.

     

    As a Stream Admin if you go to this URL you can set the spotlight videos: https://web.microsoftstream.com/admin?AdminSettingsV2=true&AdminSettingsSpotlight=true&DataUsageReporting=true

     

    After you set them, then any user can see the spotlight videos in the home page.

    Regarding your second point : it is possible for a Stream administrator to select up to 5 videos (called spotlight videos) to be displayed in the carousel banner.

    This feature is currently hidden, but can be tested if it has been deployed on your tenant : see point #9 in this post.
