Web News Setup

Web news items appear on the main page of the VSys Web and VSys Live interfaces, and are a place for you to place news items, requests for help, giving opportunities, or pretty much any other information you want displayed. Use the Web news editor to define news items.

Select VSys Web news from the VSys Web panel or Web news from the VSys Live panel.
