6gallery 3.2 More Desired Features

Gallery Module 3.2 Released

Extension is no longer available. We released Joomla Gallery

We have looked through them and choose some that, in our opinion, will make 6gallery more comfortable and powerful for every user. So today the new version - 3.2 of 6gallery is coming into life, and we will tell you about it.

Sort Pictures

The first feature that we have implemented into 6gallery is Sorting. We choose to sort as a feature that worthily to is adding because the only ways how you can sort images were: upload them in a specific order, sort them manually with drag and dropping.



Both methods were very uncomfortable and you have told us this to us. So to make working with images much easier we have added two ways of image sorting:


  • Alphabetic
  • By date 



The second feature that you were waiting impatiently if setting the Category by default. That is means that now on the Category tab you can choose with what category to start uploading your portfolio. Before now you had no ways to change that and every portfolio was loaded with All category, and user began to enjoy your portfolio from all photos. In this version, all has changed. Now you have more power in your hands and you can set any category you want as a start-category of your portfolio.

Are you sure want to delete?

How important this message was for those who have deleted images by mistake. We thought that it is faster not to show it to the user, but we read your suggestions and you said that sometimes you have deleted images by mistake and it had taken time to find them again and add them to the portfolio. So from that day we adding this message to 6gallery.



But with the ability to show it or not. Just go to the Advanced tab of the 6gallery admin panel and you will see the Yes/No green switcher. Select Yes, if you want 6gallery to notice you one more time before deleting, or select No if you want to delete your images in one click.

Design Options

The last feature that you have asked to add is the ability to customize the Category style. Before you have no ways to influence category displaying, but now we have added all features that will help you to customize our gallery and achieve the best displaying of your portfolio. Features that we have added:


  • List Alignment
  • Default Category Color
  • Active Category Color
  • Default Title Color
  • Active Title Color



All new features together with features that are responsible for gallery style are located now in the Style options tab. After we have customized options a little let's have a look at what we have achieved.

Conclusion

In conclusion, we want to say that other suggestions that you have written to us are useful too, but now we don't see how we can develop and insert into the gallery and would they make 6gallery easier or more complicated. All we want is 6gallery to become an ideal module for your portfolio presentation.
