Is it possible to have a text gallery?

jachang

I'm trying to figure out a way to have a text page with information on it. Do I have to use a gallery or is there some other way? And if I use a gallery, how do I get the text on there?

Thanks,

Jean

Create a new gallery and follow #39 in the FAQ: http://www.smugmug.com/help/customize-faq

Add your information as needed in the gallery description.

Might even want to make a navbar and link directly to the gallery.

I looked at that info at #39. I guess for someone who has a clue what they're doing it may help, but for me it's all Greek! There's no way I can figure it out from those directions. Sorry, I guess I'm just not that savvy with code.

Take a look at Allen's tutorial at http://allen-steve.smugmug.com/gallery/3235336. You can see other examples by clicking on the menu items on that site.

Thank you, Denise. I'm not sure I totally understand this. On Allen's tutorial, I understand everything in the white box. Then there's a black box under that which says "Put this in your gallery description." So which one do you actually enter in the gallery description? The stuff in the white box? The black box? Both boxes? I'm sorry, but this is totally new to me.

Thanks,

Stuff in the white box is an example of what would be seen on a gallery page when created with the stuff in the black box.

Stuff in the black box, modified with your content, would go in the description of your gallery EXCEPT where Joe has instructions to place some code (modified by you) in the CSS section of your customization.

Okay, I'll give it a whirl tomorrow.

Thanks!!
