To display your social wall on Yodeck, watch this short video or check out the step-by-step guide below.

1. Sign up at Walls.io & set up your social wall

To get started, sign up for a Walls.io trial. Setting up your social wall is fairly easy - connect your social media accounts and start adding sources – i.e. hashtags around your brand and products, or your owned social media accounts. For further information, check out our tutorial or watch the video below!

2. Copy the link to your wall

In your Walls.io account, click on the eye 👁️ icon to view your wall and copy the link to your wall (f.e. https://my.walls.io/starbucks):

We recommend enabling automatic scrolling for your wall if you go with a Fluid or Grid layout.

3. Log into the Yodeck Portal or create a free account if you don't have one.

4. Go to Apps and click "Create App".

5. Select the Walls.io icon and click "Use App" in the pop-up window.

6. Fill out the Name, Description (optional), and add your Walls.io social wall URL.

Great news, you do not need to go back to your Walls.io account to edit the design of your social wall! Right at the Yodeck Portal, you can change the wall layout, enable auto-scroll and show header, and choose the default duration.

7. Now go to the Playlists section and click on Add Playlist.

Select the Classic option.

8. Fill in the Name and the Description (optional).

Drag and drop the Walls.io widget icon from your account library below into the empty filmstrip.

Note: By default, Widgets have a duration of 40 seconds. To change that, use the "+" /"-" button and see the total duration on the filmstrip under the preview of the media file.

⚠️ Warning: You cannot preview the Walls.io app or playlist in Yodeck unless you have a physical Yodeck Player or other supported hardware, such as a Raspberry Pi. If preview is part of your setup process, create the player first before troubleshooting the wall itself.

Et voilà! You now have your social wall streaming on your assigned player! If you need to add any changes, you can do it right here, inside the Yodeck Portal.

More tips & tricks:

  • The Walls.io widget is fully responsive – which means it will automatically adapt to the size of the section you are embedding it to.

  • Try out our different layouts! Walls.io offers a variety of diverse layouts to display your wall. Continue to read here for more details!
