# Creating Showcases

> Build embeddable galleries from your approved endorsements.

## What is a showcase?

A showcase is a public gallery of your approved endorsements. You select which submissions to include, choose a layout, customize the design, and publish it as a standalone page or embed it on your website.

## Creating a showcase

Navigate to **Showcases** in the sidebar and click **New Showcase**. The showcase wizard has four steps.

### Step 1: Select submissions

Browse your approved submissions and select the ones you want to feature. You can mix video, voice, and text endorsements in a single showcase.

### Step 2: Choose a layout

Pick from five layout options:

| Layout       | Best for                                                          |
| ------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Grid**     | Clean, uniform display of many endorsements                       |
| **Masonry**  | Pinterest-style layout that adapts to content length              |
| **Carousel** | Rotating slider — great for featuring a few standout endorsements |
| **Hero**     | Large featured endorsement with supporting content below          |
| **List**     | Simple vertical list — works well for text-heavy endorsements     |

### Step 3: Design

Customize the look and feel:

* **Background** — light, dark, or gradient
* **Accent color** — matches your brand
* **Page title** — heading displayed above the gallery

### Step 4: Publish

Configure SEO settings and publish:

* **Meta title** — page title for search engines
* **Meta description** — summary for search results and social previews
* **OG image** — image shown when the showcase link is shared on social media
* **Publish** — makes the showcase live at `backthevote.com/s/your-showcase`

<Tip>You can update a showcase at any time — add or remove submissions, change the layout, or update the design. Changes go live immediately.</Tip>
