YOUR OWN ISLAND
Work and build on your own island. It is very simple, just follow the instructions below.
Every user with an account can have three personal islands for free, with a capacity of 8 visitors per island. These are so called 'Trial' islands. We show you how you can start using these islands, how to choose the right environment for your needs and what settings are important for using these in the classroom.

How to create a Frame island
At your HOME page in FrameVR: https://framevr.io/home
Click on 'CREATE FRAME' at the bottom of the grey window 'Create your first Frame!'
Fill in a NAME you want to use for this island. This should be a unique name that no one else has used. Or else you will get the message: A Frame with that name already exists. Try another!
This unique name must be in lowercase, contain only alphanumerics or hyphens, and start with a letter. The name will be part of the URL so the link will be something like: framevr.io/yoururlChoose one of the 30+ environments to start with. Don't worry, you can always choose another later.
Click on the green button at the bottom called CREATE FRAME...
CONGRATULATIONS! Your first island is now created!
Click on the link to go there!
Choose your enviroment
FrameVR offers over 30 ready to use environments, so the first thing you might want to do is walk around in those. Selecting them is very easy to do, but it is wise not to place your own objects or images in an environment before you have chosen the one that you realy want to work on. Or else it will be difficult to find these object afterwards.
At the bottom of your screen you find a row of icons, click on the PLUS (+) sign.
Select CHANGE ENVIRONMENT at the bottom of this popup.
Choose the environment by clicking on SELECT, the environment will be loaded.
You can now walk around and check out the environment.
If you want to check out the other environments, repeat the steps above.
Enjoy walking around!
NOTE: If you want to create your own environment, check out the information about the FRAME TILE EDITOR
First, change your editing settings
On a new island, anyone can place and edit objects, images etc.
So when you are on your newly created island you have to make sure that the rights are set propperly. So the first thing you might want to change the editing permissions.
When you are logged in at your own island, click on the icon at the right top of your screen.
Select the FRAME SETTINGS
Select the PERMISSIONS AND ROLES
Scroll down to PERMISSIONS and change the first one called 'Editing' into Admins.
Check the video about Admin & Members Permissions.
Add co-workers
If you want to work with other teachers on one island, you can give them admin rights by adding their email address to the list of admins of this island.
If your settings are closed, click on the icon at the right top of your screen.
Select the FRAME SETTINGS
Select the PERMISSION AND ROLES
Scroll down to ROLES, select the ADMINS tab and fill in the email address of your co-worker and click the ADD button. Note that the email addres should be the one your co-worker use for FrameVR.
Placing content
The next step is to place your own content like images, 3D objects, PDF presentations, audio and video files onto your island. How that is done can be found on the next page.
