Directions to add New Photo Gallery

  • You can either have a single photo gallery on a basic page, or you can have multiple photo galleriies on a basic page.
    • If a page already exists and you want to add an additional photo gallery, go to that page and click the Layout tab.
    • If you need the gallery on a new page, first create a new Basic page, then save. Go to that page and click the Layout tab.
  • While in 'Layout' mode:
    • Click Add a Blockl
    • Click + Create Custom Block (right column)
    • Choose sllideshow
    • Input a title; check where you want this title to display or not.
    • Under Media Items, click Add a New Media item (if this is a new image. If you know this image already has been uploaded to your site, click Add Existing Media Item.
    • Upload your image and populate necessary fields; click Create Media item.
    • The new photo should be displayed. To add a second photo, click Add a New Media Item that displays under the first image.
    • Repeat this process until all your slideshow items are in place. **It is recommended to save your Layout often - I would save after 3-4 image upload so you don't lose your work.**
    • Click Save Layout in the upper left corner of the page.
