Gallery Image

 

After you have added an Image Gallery you may start adding Gallery Images in it. To add a Gallery Image roll over the Image Gallery and click the  icon on its top right. Green rectangles will denote the locations where an image may be added. Clicking a location will open the Add Gallery Image popup.

 

Here you can specify the images you want to be part of this gallery. You can upload a single image or ZIP file with many images.

• In the Source field select the file you wish to upload from the local disk using the Browse button.
• The Thumbnail link defines the action on click over the thumbnail of the uploaded image(s). By default it will open the popup viewer with enlarged image.
• The Comment field keeps a text for this image(s) which will be displayed according to the selected Show Comment setting in the Gallery properties.
• If you click on the Use File Name option, the file name will be used as a comment. This option is particularly useful when you upload a zip file with properly named images.
• When you select [x] Create sub-gallery from image(s) you will be asked to enter the name of your subgallery and a subgallery page will be automatically created. The subgallery page will have an auto-added Image Gallery containing the gallery images you added. A thumbnail image in the main gallery will link to this subgallery page.

 

Under the Advanced Settings, you will find the Custom Thumbnail and Restrict Access options.

 

 

The Custom Thumbnail allows you to specify your own image for a thumbnail instead of using the automatically generated one. The image should match the exact settings for Thumbnail Size defined in the Gallery Properties. You can use this option only when uploading individual images.

The Restrict Access to Original Image section allows you to define a password and a mailing list restriction for accessing originals. Only people who know the password and are members of this mailing list will be able to see the full-size original image. You can specify a password restriction, a restriction by mailing list or both. This option is useful only if the Keep Original check box is checked in the Image Gallery Properties.

 

You may also add Gallery Images  by clicking Add Content from top left. Select the Image Gallery option and go to the gallery where the images should be added. Your Image Gallery has been marked in green, showing that you may add images to it. Click the green Image Gallery and the Add a Gallery Image popup will be displayed. Images added this way are automatically added at the end of the gallery.
