This tutorial provides step-by-step instructions for managing widget content for channels like banners and sliders, and how to effectively control and customize the content displayed on your web pages through widgets in Omnitron.

Step 1: Navigate to Widget Management​

• Navigate to the Omnitron platform and log into your account.
