Hot Photo Gallery Plugin
If you install this theme using HotStart method, our Photo Gallery plugin ($9.95 value) will be installed as well.
- Upload images for Gallery in a folder on your server (using WordPress Media Manager or FTP). Make sure the folder is writable.
- Make an article page in WordPress (like this one) with or without text and type:
{*photogallery}wp-content/hot_start/stories/demo/cities{/photogallery*}
wherever you want on that page (you would remove the *’s in practice. They are included to actually prevent the plugin from working in this place).
Our plugin will do the rest for you. What it does?
- Automatically makes thumbnail images and save them in /thumbs subfolder of your folder with images. You select thumbnail image width in the plugin properties, default is 200 (Extensions > Plugins > Photo Gallery).
- Replaces your snippet with a serie of thumbnail images. You select how many images per row in the plugin properties, default is 3.
- Create the Lightbox slideshow. Click on any thumbnail will open larger image in Lightbox pop-up. User can browse images (prev/next) in the pop-up.
THe options tab of this WordPress plugin can be accessed from Settings > HOT Photogallery plugin settings.
