Item Add Module

Add items from your server's filesystem or from another web-page.

Description

The "Add from Local Server" and "Add from Web Page" methods were standard up through Gallery 2.1. In 2.2 these moved into a separate module; each method can be turned on/off in Site Admin. Simply don't activate this module to use neither one.

Usage

• Install the module in site admin -> Plugins
• Add local upload paths in Site admin -> Server / Web .
• Add items by browsing to an album -> Add Items -> From local server.
