Hi,
I use an old theme, which has a gallery function built in. This is structured in such a way that you can “Create a new gallery”, you give it a title and you select the images from the media library, which should be displayed in this gallery. These images can then be easily changed by dragging and dropping in the order. Each new gallery has its own ID, e.g. 12345.
This ID can then be used to display the gallery everywhere you specify this ID. In an article, under an article, also in shortcodes or anywhere else. So the galleries are independent from any posts, they are galleries with IDs.
And all galleries can be found in one menu item “Galleries” by their individual names. Very convenient and clear. Next to each name is the respective ID of the gallery, as described e.g. 12345.
In articles you can see e.g. the single images in rows and columns below and beside each other, small 100x100px thumbnails. If you click on it, the image is displayed as an overlay (FancyBox). Everything is freely customizable via CSS.
How can I achieve exactly this with the Media Assistant? I have looked at the long documentation, but it is really overwhelming.
In short: “New gallery”, “Select images from media library”, “Save gallery”, gallery now has its own ID and with this ID you can display the gallery everywhere you use the ID with nice 100x100px thumbnails, done.
How does this work with this plugin?
