Updating Your Photo Gallery

Updating Your Photo Gallery

ADD NEW Photo

This happens in two steps – 1) prepare your photo and 2) upload to the gallery

1)    Prepare your photo

You’ll need an image editing program for this such as PhotoShop. There are some free online ones available.
Resolution: The photo that you upload to the website MUST be low resolution (72 or 96dpi).any higher resolution will result in very large fil sizes and visitors will not wait to see the photos.  Low resolution file sizes are between 20kb and about 300kb. 
Dimensions: Try to make the photo width between 1000 and 2000 pixels. Any larger and the file size will be too big also.

2)    Upload to the gallery

  • Open CMS
  • Click SITE EDITOR
  • In the PAGES column, locate the GALLERY page and click it once
  • On left menu, click Edit Gallery Items
  • Now you will see all the photos that appear in your gallery
  • TO add a new photo, click + Add Item at top left
  • Enter a suitable name
  • Upload your Image/Photo
  • Click SAVE
  • Usually, the new photos are added to the bottom of the list of images. You can re-order them by dragging the arrow for that image that you can see on the extreme right.

That’s it. Have fun and get in touch if you have any difficulties.

Pin A Page for Quick Access

Posted on 04 Mar, 2024

With the new page pinning feature, it's even easier to access the CMS page that you need in a flash. To pin any page, simply click on the "pin" icon located at the top left of each page in the CMS. Then, you can keep the default name or give it a new name. Then choose a suitable icon that will also appear in the main menu. To remove a pinned page from the main menu, click into the page and then click the pin and select "Remove from Menu".
