Is there any limit to the number of apps that you can have on a lockdown screen? I don't seem to be able to get more than 6, is this a limit with MobiControl or my HTML ;)

Hi Ollie,
By default, the limit is set to 6 apps for the lockdown but you can easily edit the HTML template being used to add more items to the list. You can access your lockdown templates by clicking on the "Templates" button in the lockdown profile configuration screen.
Please let me know if you have any further questions.
Thanks
Duplicating existing items within <div class="row"> session in the default html template file can give you more items in your kiosk in seconds.
In fact, if you are proficient in web page/web-app design with html/CSS/javascript files, you can modify the kiosk to any design (fonts, wallpaper, header/footer, html5/web API, multi-page, different visual/graphics objects such as list, toggle switch, etc. ). In such case, there is virtually no limit on the number of items or how they are grouped or used. The only limit is to use features supported by the web-page renderer (should be based on Webkit on Android) on your device/device-agent.
Thanks both, i just worked out how to modify the template to add the extra apps, so deleted my question without realising you had already answered!
Hi Ollie
I have the same issue you had whereby my default template is only allowing 6 apps in the Kiosk Screen. I have managed to muddle my way through editting the default templates previously to add my own logos, change text and colours etc, however, I am not experienced in HTML, so was wondering how you amended your template to allow more than 6 apps?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hi Jonny
You basically copy and paste code that is already there, and change a couple of numbers, see below. FYI <MCDispImg> gives you the image that you added to an application, <MCExeIcon> gives you the default image for that app.
