Publishing & Uploading an Album
To publish an album on a website you need to create the associated HTML
files. Photo Gallery can do this in a snap.
To publish & Upload an Album
Open an existing album or create
a project file and keep it open. -
From the File menu select Publish
(Speedkey - Ctrl+P). The default
folder where the related files of the album are to be published is displayed
in the Browse For Folder dialog.
Browse and Navigate to the folder where you would
like to publish the album. You can also create a new folder using the
Make New Folder button. -
Click OK
to publish. The following Window is displayed.
-
Fill in the FTP information by clicking on Ftp Setting (see the figure below), click OK after finishing the fill-in.
The Default Host Directory field should be filled with the default folder name for upload files. Usually it is named as "public_html". If you are not sure the folder name, you can empty this field.
Note: The FTP settings (login name, password and default folder for upload files) are provided by your web hosting company upon signup.
Click Upload on the Publishing Window, please wait until the status bar is fully loaded. You can change the remote folder if necessary.
You will see a message "Upload Complete" on the popup box, with a URL of your website for you to view your website online instantly. If the URL is not correct, you can also change the URL setting manually.
 Note:
For version v2.06 or above, the published files will include a folder named a4gallery and a file photogallery.htm.
The a4gallery folder includes the following:
a4gallery_images folder
a4gallery_thumbs folder
AC_RunActiveContent.js
data.xml
index.swf
For older versions, the published files include a folder named a4gallery_images, files AC_RunActiveContent.js, index.swf, data.xml and index.html.
-
You can edit the HTML file: photogallery.htm (or index.html in older versions) directly. You can rename it (such as "index.htm" for your homepage) or add content to it, like a link to other pages of your web site. Upload all the published files to your server, and you can view your gallery online.
