Your yearbook home page is the first page you will see after opening your project.

Getting Started with EDOnline

At the top of your screen you will see 3 getting started buttons. These are the most commonly used features when creating your yearbook project.

1. Uploading Photos: Click to begin uploading photos to your yearbook. To learn more about uploading photos, click here.
2. View Deadlines: Click to view when your first deposit is due, your first and second submission deadline, and your final deadline. These deadlines are estimates, and if you think you need more time on any of them, please call your Account Manager and request an extension. Click here for more information about your deadlines.
3. Design Pages: Click to open the EDOnline Designer. You can start building your yearbook from here. Click here for more information about designing a page.

These icons will change as you continue working on your yearbook. For example, once you are close to submitting for production, Design page will change to Submit for Production, and View Deadlines will change to Enter the Yearbook Contest once you have submitted for final production.

Newsfeed

The newsfeed is a quick reference to what has been going on in your account, as well as whats been going on at Entourage. You can see who is uploading photos, downloading photos, and view announcements from us about new features and any changes in our company.

LiNK

LiNK is a site that links your school community to your yearbook project. You can sell your yearbook online, sell ads using our ad designer, have people upload photos, or turn on the download capability for the LiNK mobile app. To learn more about LiNK, click here.

Navigating Your Yearbook

Manage Tab

This tab allows you to manage your account in various ways. You can edit your book specs and account information, set up your staff members, adjust staff permissions, assign yearbook tasks, manage your pages in your yearbook ladder, and view anything that has been uploaded for you to use in the building of your book.

Upload Tab

This tab allows you to upload photos, pages, and other content. If you choose to design a page in a different software, the Upload Pages feature allows you to upload the page as a PDF to place in our page designer. You can also send files through Hightail to your account managers at Entourage Yearbooks. (Hightail is a Dropbox type software.)

Collaborate Tab
This tab allows users to explore templates, view previous books for your account and from other schools for inspiration, read customer testimonials, and see yearbook contest winners.  Share templates you have created, enter into this year’s yearbook contest, tell a friend about us as your favorite yearbook design company or connect with students and your community.  You can also help your staff to become certified in designing yearbooks with our online curriculum.  There is also a chat feature available, so you can chat with people who are also working on the yearbook.

Design Tab

This tab allows you to design your yearbook cover, pages, people pages, and any upgrades you may have such as printed endsheets or inside printing. You can also create your yearbook index through the Design Tab.
