image Gallery

I'm trying out KenticoCMS and I'm trying to put an image gallery together. I've created the gallery fine under contents (in CMSDesk) but am now totally confused about displaying it. I've tried following the help in the Developers guide but can't get anything to work. Is there a more in depth tutorial anywhere. I'm sure it's not as difficult as I'm making it. If anyone can help tell me how i display my galleries I would be really grateful. Many thanks. Milt.

Re: image Gallery

Hi Petr,

Thanks for getting back. I have done it but it seems very fussy and not easy to format although it's probably more my ignorance :) If it's of any assistance I didn't find the guide for the image gallery very useful. I had to do some stuff that didn't work before I got there and it's still pushing my other elements off the page.

I want to do something simpler. I have to 2 galleries set up fine in the contents iin CMSDesk with a Page(MenuItem) at root level and two image galleries under it.

I want to have a menu on the left hand side of the page and a scrolling div on the right to display the images in order in one long line going horizontally.

Is it possible to use something like CMSmenu control (for the menu) and a CMS Repeater (in the div to display the gallery images)?

Many thanks for your assistance.

Re: image Gallery

After a long night and some playing with the css i've got the gallery about as sexy as I can for now.

Thanks for your assistance anyway. If anyone is having problems formatting the gallery I recommend copying all the imagegallery css into your own css file (linked to from your master page OR in your theme folder) and manipulating it from there to get it looking how you want.

If I get the chance I might write my own tutorial on it. Will post a link to the site once it's all dusted.

Here's to learning...


Guest	admin - 9/28/2006 7:55:31 PM Re: image Gallery Hello, I'm sorry for the delay in answering. If you would like to display the images as a "filmstrip", I would recommend that you use a combination of CMSRepeater and a DIV with scrollbars (you can use the ASP.NET Panel control for the scrollbars). Please let me know if you need any further details. Best Regards,
