# Slider groups

You can combine multiple views into *slider groups* . These slider groups then switch between the individual views after a set period of time. 

## Create new slider group

<div data-full-width="true"><figure><img src="/files/5ef89553528b075478c31f77376957de06a02dc9" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>

1. Open the menu item **Smart View \[A]** \
   ▷ The "Smart Views" workspace opens.
2. Click on **\[B]**\
   ▷ The window **Add slider \[C]** opens
3. Give the slider in **\[D]** a name
4. Select in **\[E]** the interval. This is the time that passes until the next view is displayed in the slider.
5. Click on **\[F]**\
   ▷ The slider was created

## &#x20;**Add views to slider**

<div data-full-width="true"><figure><img src="/files/7fd59383d506e21b0b503ef0d6b8cb0df4a7b23c" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>

1. Open a slider group
2. Click on **\[G]**
3. The window **Add view \[H]** opens
4. Click on **\[J]** \
   ▷ a list of the available views **\[K]** is displayed\
   ◈ [Protected views](/collection/english-v14/documentation/smart-views/deploy-a-smart-view.md#zugang-beschraenken) are marked with the symbol **\[L]** marked
5. Click the view you want to add
6. Click on **\[I]**
7. Repeat the previous steps to add more views

{% hint style="warning" %}
If a slider contains both protected views and unprotected views: Without valid login credentials, the slider will not be displayed.&#x20;

Even views that are actually not protected will not be displayed if you are in a slider that contains protected views.&#x20;
{% endhint %}

## **Deploy slider**

Sliders are deployed according to the same principle as [Views](/collection/english-v14/documentation/smart-views/deploy-a-smart-view.md).

1. Click on **\[M]**, to copy the URL of the slider group
2. Open the copied URL in a web browser\ <br>
