    I’ve searched Pinside, googled, and been all over Stern’s website. It needs to be better explained how to do this. Stern needs to have a YouTube video or step by step process online. I’ve seen their workflow charts and videos and they don’t address simple issues like how to find the url to broadcast your leaderboard.

    Can we create a one stop, step by step thread on the topic?

    Please help.

    I’ve searched Pinside, googled, and been all over Stern’s website and this is needs to be better communicated on how to do this. The fact that Stern doesn’t have a YouTube video or step by step process online is a fail in and of itself. I’ve seen their workflow charts and videos and they don’t address simple issues like how to find the url of the leaderboard you set up not to mention you can’t find it from your pro account.
    Can we create a one stop, step by step thread to do what Stern hasn’t? I’m about ready to chuck equipment at this point. This has been BEYOND frustrating
    Please help.

    When you make a leaderboard, check the box for “kiosk” view. Then you’ll see a link for landscape and/or portrait. Click those and then copy/paste that link to the public for people to view.

    Yea, it's a pita today. I have smart TVs and having to type those URLs sux.

    They should just have a simple page where you can type a 6 digit code and display your board.

    I see it now, but apparently it’s only on the phone view? Doing it on the laptop didn’t give me that option, it only lets you check kiosk. Why?!

    It looks like you've clicked one link too far on the laptop, you're showing the "edit leaderboard" page. If you go back to the main leaderboards page you should see it look like this on a computer, and there are your kiosk view links.

    Thanks for everyone’s help. I was tired and frustrated when I initially posted. I still think the process needs better explained by Stern than it currently is though.
