How do I add a photo into a gallery?
Christine Cahoon Fri 21 Oct 2016
Make sure you've logged in first, by using the 'login' link usually at the top right of the navigation bar. Once logged in, go to the section that's using the gallery section type. You should see a number of tabs below the section heading. Now:
- select Add a picture tab as shown in the first screenshot
- a form will be displayed as in the second screenshot—you'll see an example of what to add in third screenshot
- Title—this could be the names of people in the photos or the name of the place you've taken the photo of
- Keywords—these are for the tag cloud feature so add keywords that can group a selection of photos together
- Comment—add whatever comments you want :-)
- Replacement file upload—select Choose file to locate the file on your machine, then select Add
- the system will upload the file and make a thumbnail, normal and large photo (all optimsed for the web) to use within the gallery.
You'll see the thumbnail of the photo automatically displayed within the section.
Here's an example of a gallery section from Class of 76 40th reunion dinner.
If you have any problems, please don't hesitate to contact us with a link to the section you are updating and someone will get back to you as soon as possible.
