PicInch Gallery makes an image-oriented website, for an individual or a club.
The administrator, or a user with curator
role, can edit the content for information pages and diaries with Curator > Information
(for a club website) or Edit > Pages
(for a solo website).
A page is defined by a sequence of sections. Each page section has a block of text, and optionally a media file.
Markdown is supported for the text. Media files can be images, videos or PDF documents.
A section format specifies the layout of the section:
above The section’s media image (if specified) is shown above the text.
below The section’s media image is shown below the text.
card The section is shown as one of a grid of cards. I.e. in two or more columns, depending on the width of the browser window.
left The section’s media image is shown to the left of the text.
right The section’s media image is shown to the right of the text.
The special section formats events
, highlights
and slideshows
are intended to be used just once each, and by default they are added to the home page. They can be rearranged in order on the home page, or moved to separate pages. The section text appears above the special content and typically is just a heading.
events This special section shows the next upcoming event for each diary.
highlights This special section shows a panel of thumbnails for the most recent hightlight images.
slideshows This special section shows a panel of thumbnails for the most recent slideshows and topics.
subpages This special section shows summary cards for the sub-pages of this page that do not have menu items.
I.e. pages named .name.sub
.
A diary (for a club website) has a introduction text-only section, and a sequence of dairy events. Each event has a title that appears on the home page, and detail text.
For a club website, slideshows are created and edited by club members. Slideshows are listed for each member under Members
and the most recent slideshows are shown on one page, typically the home page. Slideshows can also be grouped into topics.
For a solo website, slideshows are created and edited by Edit > Slideshows
. All slideshows are shown on one page, typically the home page.
