Image 1/8  

The last sample is a little Thank-You to those who made it till here. The shown gallery uses a - not documented elswhere - feature. If you set the parameter "Sets" to 1, no thumbnail is generated and you get a nice little click-through gallery. Maybe this is usefull sometimes.

Settings in the plugin configuration panel

To configure the galleries on your site as shown above, the settings in the plugins configuration panel are:

• Gallery width: 430
• Gallery width is set in: Pixel
• Align the gallery: Center
• Thumbnail width: 90
• Thumbnail height: 60
• Image thumbnail quality: 80

Code in article

To show the images in the folder /images/stories/verysimple, type the following code in your article at the place you want the gallery to be shown:

{*vsig}verysimple{/vsig*} - (without the asterisks)

Overrides

If you are using other settings than the shown above in the plugins configuration panel and want to configure just the current gallery, it is possible to extend the code in your article with Parameter Overrides (refer Plugin Howto Code). The settings for the gallery shown above are:

• width=430
• percent=0
• align=1
• twidth=90
• theight=60
• quality=80
• space=7
• right=2
• area=30
• sort=0
• sets=1
• setstxt=Image
• cfwd=
• cbwd=
• caps=1
• inout=1
• links=1
• script=1
• folderid=0

In your article you overwrite only the parameters that differ from the settings in your backend. For example:

{*vsig}verysimple|width=430|align=1{/vsig*} - (without the asterisks)
