Dear all

I'm looking for a gallery module for a photographer which will make it easy to create galleries for his site.

Does anyone have any recommendations which module might be the best one - I see that there are several out there, but can't locate any demos so I can see how they operate.

many thanks,

Harry

is very flexible.

Here's an example site that uses it:

but remember layout is largely determined by your template design.

As a reference: http://www.zero40.nl/photographers/rens-van-mierlo

Lot of albums on that site created with Albums module (some with LI2).

Must be
{cms_module module='Album'}
--> module calls are case sensitive.

hth,

Actually Album tag is just {Album}, look in the Help for the new tags...

Thanks for pointing me
will gonna try this :-)
let you know if it did work

Edit , just did a new install
in the module help is written :
Om alle albums op een pagina te tonen gebruikt u volgende code:
{cms_module module='album'}

translation to show all albums in a page use the following code :
{cms_module module='album'}

this is why i used this code :)

well see the album but when i click on a picture it is pretty big and need to click on back <page> to go back to the menu
also got only default the others when i click on a album i go back to the index page ,,
but will sort this out , gonna start with the real site now
