+ Amal's Blog +: Wordpress [Gallery/Contact Form] Plugin

Monday 25 May 2009

I installed wordpress (contact form & photo gallery) by uploading it to plugins folder ..

Then I've activated it from Plugins management page..

I created an album & pasted the required code that will run the gallery in my page...

Here's the gallery with some uploaded images..

the same thing for contact page, I've pasted the code in text area & updated my page ..

Contact page with all required fields..

Testing "Contact form":

its working :)

Anonymous said...: Hi Amal,

Congratulations on installing and using Wordpress for your site. It can be quite tricky to do at times when dealing with the connections to the database so I am impressed and quite happy to see that you managed to deal with all the config elements manually.

It is also nice to see that you have used some of the “plug in” items on your site as well, such as the picture gallery which would of taken hours to write if you were not using the Wordpress CMS.

I know it is still under construction and not all your content is in place yet, but is there anyway you can configure the graphic design and video sections to work in the same way that the photography section works?

The reason I’m asking is that if you present all your work in a big list, as the video page is currently set up as, you might find that people only examine the first 2 or 3 items on that screen and not scroll down to see the rest of your items.

Let me know if I can be of any help
