We already created a few galleries on top of the slideshow block available by default. While the file manager offers a bunch of nice features, some of you might still like to work with FTP like we did in the old times without databases.
You can upload files using FTP into the incoming
folder, which you can find in /files
and import them right into the file manager by using the little Upload Multiple link in the top right corner of the file manager next to the Upload button. This certainly works, but what happens if you want to move all the files into a different directory or delete or replace some of the files using your favorite FTP client?
Now we're going to create another picture gallery, which uses the same jQuery lightbox script which we've used before. You can find it at http://leandrovieira.com/projects/jquery/lightbox/. You should have a bit more PHP experience in this one as we create a few more lines of code in this example. This time we're going to create everything...
