Plugin Directory

Darkroom

Implements a full-fledged photo gallery function within WordPress.

Download Version

  1. Download the source, uncompress it, and put the darkroom folder in your WordPress plugins directory.
  2. Create a folder called ìpicsî in the root of your WordPress installation. Create sub-folders and put pictures in them. For Example:
    1. My blog is located at /usr/web/innerturtle.com/. I can access this via FTP.
    2. I created a new folder called pics. It lives at /user/web/innerturtle.com/pics/. This will be the place where darkroom gets all the pictures. But wait, I canít put any pictures files into this folder SOÖ
    3. I create subfolders, maybe ìBirthdayPicturesî and ìHikingPicturesî. These would live at /user/web/innerturtle.com/pics/BirthdayPictures/ and /user/web/innerturtle.com/pics/HikingPictures/ respectively.
    4. I put my birthday pictures in /user/web/innerturtle.com/pics/BirthdayPictures/ and I put my hiking pictures in /user/web/innerturtle.com/pics/HikingPictures/.
    5. Now Darkroom will show that I have two ìcollectionsî: one of birthday pictures and one of hiking pictures.
  3. Go into your WordPress Admin Console and create a new page. The name of your page is as it will appear on your site (unless you change this, see below.) You must enter a custom field: make the KEY of 'darkroom' and the VALUE of 'true'. Do not include the single-quotes and use all lower-case letters.
  4. View your new page. If youíve done the previous steps correctly, youíll see a photo album.
