    Hi
    I need the Gallery photo in the top row similar to this site:
    http://zbrushcentral.com

    my scenario is like this, to have community to post the artwork in the forum.

    1) the verified member can upload their artwork in the gallery by themselves
    2) Admin can use or choose member's artwork in the forum or gallery and then post on the top row of the main forum, similar like zbrushcentral.com
    3) I see you have some kind of similar slider gallery on your forum, however will that be possible to put that slider on top of the main forum bar, similar to zbrushcentral.com?
    4) will it possible to get two row of slider like in zbrushcentral?
    5) Also, when I clik the artwork on that toprow artwork (slider gallery), is it possible to link to the posting that member post in the forum? or I can link to the particular artwork in gallery or different url ?

    will this add ons do this?

    Thanks

    Hello,

    1. OK
    2. You can do that. We have feature named "Collection", administrators can add any photos/albums to a collection and use photos inside this collection to put into widget.
    3. You can do it. It is supported by Widget Framework addon.
    4. You can add 2 widget.
    5. It links to the photo itself. Gallery works independently, not the attachment so it will not link to the post by member.

    Hi

    Thanks for your reply.

    I just need to clarify fot point 5
    What I mean, I will select the photos from the thread created by the user, let say it's Finish Artwork Thread.I will then put in the finish artwork to the front page. Then I will give the link manually type it to point to the Finish Artwork Thread.

    is this possible?

    And Is it hard to implement 2 row scroll artowork under the header as per picture I attached (I used photoshop for illusrtation) ? do I need to use buy the add-on to put the 1 or 2 row gallery? as you actually mention about widget.

    Sorry I am very new to this, just want to make sure I will buy what serve my purpose.

    Thanks

    You cannot. Photos from threads are attachments, not in XenGallery. But you can import photos in that thread to XenGallery then put them to front page.
    Widget Framework is free add-on. Add widget is very easy.

    Hi
    Thanks for your reply.
    Ok. In this case, to get to my purpose.

    1) I import the final artwork to the gallery which i will name as top row gallery
    2) then put the artwork as front art.
    3) when member click the front art, it will take the user to the gallery

    Questions:
    1) can this gallery used exclusively to put the artwork by admin or moderator?
    So no other member can put the media in the gallery, as my purpose is to show only selected Artwork.
    2) once in the gallery, can we put extra link to each image that I can type to point to the thread? If not is it hard to develop such Feature?

    Thanks for your patient answering my questions... I actually did buy xfmg but seems has no way to implement the features i need. I hope this can be implement so i can move on buying.

    Yes. It has lot of permission, you can deny users from posting to gallery.
    XenGallery has custom fields system. You can create a new field named "Linked thread" and put the link to thread there, it will be shown on screen without any issue.

    It is not important. It just the index file. No content there.
    You need go to: Tools -> Import External Data. Choose importer you need.
