If you have already logged in you will have automatically be logged into the administration area of the site. If you would like to open it up in a separate window click here. The setup and management of your albums are not difficult to master, but it will take a little getting used to. A few simple things to note:
- Make sure your pictures are a maximum of 1024x768 in size. There are a ton of applications out there that can batch resize imags for you. If you need help locating one just let me know.
- Go to the "media" area of the administration site
- Choose the destination folder (/media/gallery/hastings.../)
- use the browse button beside each line to choose what pictures you would like to upload. There is a max of 10 at a time.
- Click Upload
- Go to the "Pages" area of the administration site.
- Click the + sign beside Images and you will see the pages you have access to modify.
- Click the name of the page to open up the settings.
- At the top of the page you will see the area (WYSIWG - What you see is what you get). Simply type in the text you would like to appear when people hit this page.
- Below that you will see the settings for your gallery.
- Gallery Settings
- Choose the directory where you put your images.
- All other settings are normally fine until you get down to the "slide show" and the transition time. These are normally set to True and about 4000.
- Click Save and you should be in business.
- Adding pages is pretty easy and I won't go into detail, but if you need help let me know.
