Photo Gallery
Photo Galleries are used to display a series of related photos. They can be added to existing pages like Basic Pages or Articles using the WYSIWYG text editor.

Photo Galleries can be created using the Drupal admin menu bar.

- Name your Photo Gallery
- In the Media Items section use the Select Media button to upload photos or choose photos that have been added to the Media Library
- Click each photo you want added to the library
- Selected photos will appear in a row on the bottom of the Select Media window
- To remove a photo from that row, hover over the photo and click the x button in the top right corner of the image
- Once you have chosen all of the photos for your gallery click Use Selected
- Review the selected photos in the Media Items section and drag to change the order they are displayed
- When the photos are in the correct order click Save to finish your Photo Gallery
Note: Titles or captions added to images will be displayed in the Photo Galley - see the example gallery on this page.
