Auto Gallery

Gallery Options

The gallery downloads images hosted on the server. The thumbnail images are auto generated on the server and lazy load so the gallery can easily accommodate up to 480 images without effecting the page download time.
Note how the image file names appear as the captions and the thumbnail captions are set to slide up on hover.
This gallery was created mainly for Photographers who need to upload a lot of images for clients to approve and identify the ones they want by file name.
NOTE: This widget cannot be used by those who use EverWeb hosting since the images and the gallery assets need to be uploaded to a server.

Preparing & Uploading The Assets

Using this version of the EW Gallery widget requires the images and other assets to be uploaded to a server - preferrably the same one that host's the website files.

  • Inside the ew Gallery download folder is a folder named "ewGalleryAssets"
  • Open the ewGalleryAssets folder and then the nano_photos_content folder and drag all the images into it.
  • Using an FTP app, upload the ewGalleryAssets folder to the root folder on the sever. This is the folder that contains the rest of the website files and folders.
  • Enter the file path into the widget settings …
      http://mywebsite.com/ewGalleryAssets
  • For the next gallery, duplicate the GalleryAssets folder and rename it to GalleryAssets-2
  • Open the nano_photos_content folder and replace the images with the new ones

Testing

If the images don't load, test the path to any image file using this …
http://mywebsite.com/ewGalleryAssets/nano_photos_provider2/nano_photos_content/image-file name.jpg
… using your own domain name, folder name and image file name.
