Set Up

1. Add the plugin folder to /wp-content/plugins/
2. Activate ‘Jigowatt Gallery’ from the plugins web page in WordPress admin
3. Get Started including your galleries from the ‘Gallery Merchandise’ section.

Including Galleries

So As To Add a gallery simply log in on your WordPress admin panel and click on “Galleries” in the “Gallery Items” menu on the left hand facet. the process is nearly just like including a submit class so follow the same manner right here. Provide the gallery a name, an outline and a determine if you happen to desire (galleries will also be nested as established within the demo).

If you need to show a static thumbnail for your gallery in preference to the default fading slideshow you'll specify and symbol trail right here.

Adding pictures

To Add an image to a gallery click “Add New” within the “Gallery Pieces” menu. Here you can make a selection an image you’ve already uploaded or click on “Upload a file” to upload a brand new symbol.

Next, use the “Galleries” panel on the right to specify which gallery you want to insert this image in to (again this functions in the similar manner as post categories).

Subsequent input the picture order. This defines which order the gallery will display your images in. E.G. image “1” will seem sooner than symbol “2”. We Propose using increments of 10 for symbol orders, simply in case you wish to have so as to add an image among two others (15) at a later date.

After All add the picture description to be able to appear as a caption whilst a user enlarges a person image by the use of lightbox.
