Overview
This article explains how to create a photo album in a photo gallery on your website. Photo albums can be used to group and showcase photographs, for example, from an event or trip, or to share pupil artwork.
Prerequisites
- You must have created a photo gallery before creating a photo album (see Juniper Websites: How do I create a photo gallery?)
Instructions
- Navigate to the Gallery where you would like to create a photo album.
- Select Album from the Create tab:
- A blank photo album is created. Enter a name and description for the album by overtyping the existing content:
- Before saving, you must upload at least one image to the photo album. Select Upload Images.
- Locate and select between 1 and 99 images to upload into the photo album.
- Select Open to add the images to your photo album:
- Optionally, select an image and drag-and-drop it to reorder the images.
- Optionally:
- Select an image as the thumbnail for the album. By default, the first image uploaded will be displayed as the thumbnail.
- Rotate the image counter clockwise.
- Rotate the image clockwise.
- Add a title and description for each image.
(this is vital to ensure your images are accessible to visitors accessing your site with a screen reader) - Delete any images you have accidentally added to the Photo Album.
- Select Save to save your Photo Album (see Juniper Websites: What do the different save options mean?).
Outcome
Your photo album has been created using the photo images you uploaded.
If your site administrator has enabled social media sharing, you can share your album to your social feeds when publishing.
