How to replace an image on Gallery

Hi @satimis,

NextGen Gallery doesn’t come with an image replacement feature, but as a workaround, you can delete the existing gallery image from “NextGen Gallery>>Manage Galleries” then upload the other image file new.

Hi @imagely,

Is it on;

Top menu bar
-> New -> Media
[Select Files]

then the file will be upload to that Gallery folder?

Regards

Hi @satimis,

You can delete an image from the gallery accessing that gallery from “NextGen Gallery>>Manage Galleries” then clicking on the “delete” link at the bottom of that image’s thumbnail.

To add a new image, you’d need to access “NextGen Gallery>>Add Gallery/Images”, select the gallery where you’d like to upload the image, browse to select the image from your computer’s storage then upload it.

If the image is already available in WP Media, you can upload it to your NextGen gallery from “NextGen Gallery>>Add Gallery/Images” accessing “Import From Media Library” selecting it from there, then uploading it.

We suggest you to check this documentation article for more details on creating galleries and adding images to them: https://www.imagely.com/docs/adding-images-uploadingzip-filesimage-folders/

Hi @imagely

Thanks for your links.

I got it done. It is quite complicate. 

Steps:
On top menu bar
Gallery -> Add Gallery / Images

UPLOAD IMAGES
Gallery [name_of_gallery]

-> [ BROWSE ]
On my computer:-
Pictures -> Selston_20231121
select -> selston01_garden_AiRestore_gimp.jpeg
-> Open

-> [ UPLOAD 1 FILE ]
DONE

-> [ SAVE CHANGES ]

completed. The new image upload to this gallery folder.

How to move the image on the folder to new postion? I can drag to move the image. But if the new position is beyond the top, it won't move up.

Regards

Sure, you can copy or move the images from one gallery to another.

Please check this doc article for more details: https://www.imagely.com/docs/copy-to-move-to/

Hi @imagely,

Sorry, I meant moving the images around in the same Gallery.

If I need dragging an image to a position above the top menu bar what can I do?

Regards

So images can be sorted but only within their gallery container. More details on that here: https://www.imagely.com/docs/sorting-images-in-nextgen-gallery

Manage Galleries

SORT GALLERY
Dragging the images around in the gallery
