How to add a site-wide media gallery
Creating a site-wide media gallery
Navigate to the “_Shared” folder of the department site, or if your site has the "_Media" folder, navigate there.
OR
Within either the "_Shared" or "_Media" folder, create a new folder titled “Galleries”
Within the "Galleries" folder, create a new folder with the title for your image gallery. You will create a new folder for each gallery you add to the site.
Create a new "Image Gallery" smart form.
Enter the gallery title in the "Title" and "Gallery Heading" fields.
Select a Preview Image to upload. This is the image that will serve as the cover photo for the gallery on the bottom of the page. The dimensions of the image must be 170x120 px.
Click the Upload Image icon.
Upload your image to the library and select "Add Library"
After uploading an image, the image Icon
must be clicked again. This is a requirement by the CMS.
Continue to add images to the gallery and click the "Publish" icon
.
Navigate in the CMS Folder Structure to the "Galleries" folder of your site once again.
Create a new “Media Box with Video" smart form.
In the "Title" and "Media Box Title" fields, enter "Galleries."
In the Gallery Description field, enter in a title for your gallery.
Click the "Add Gallery" folder icon.
Navigate to the smart form for your image gallery and select OK. You can add up to 4 image galleries to appear on the site by selecting the blue notepad icon and choosing to Insert Above or Below.
Click the “Publish” icon.
Navigate in the folder structure to the _Admin/_Config folder of your site and select the "(Department Name) Config" smart form.
Click the “Edit” icon.
Click the “+ Ribbon Gallery” icon, followed by the folder icon.
Navigate in the new window to the "Galleries" folder once again and select your gallery from the list. Click “OK.”
Click the “Publish” icon.
Your image gallery will now be displayed on every page of the site in a media box at the bottom of the page.
