Our church website

We just released the new look to our website this past Sunday.  Have a look.  I'd appreciate any comments you may have for process improvement.  Thanx.

Can you tell me how you got the multimedia gallery to appear on it's own page and what module or component did you use?

Looks like:

http://extensions.joomla.org/component/ ... Itemid,35/

(if you mouse over a link, you will see option=com_...) this will often tell you what component is being used.

We chose to use the Exposé Photo Gallery.  You can tell which component we used if you drill down to any photo gallery and then click on the blue question mark.

As far as how to set this up...after downloading and installing the component in the admin pages, I just went to Menu >> mainmenu and created a New menu item.  I selected the "Component" radio button, and then selected "Expose" from the Component list.  I gave the button a name of "Multimedia Gallery".  That's pretty much all there is to it.  You can access the Flash-based configuration of Exposé through the admin pages under your Components menu.

Thanks for sharing that info.  I knew that it had to be relatively simple to do.

Not a problem.  I think this may be the "mini" version of the photo gallery. (I believe there is a larger version of this available for download.)  We chose this version because it fit well in the template we are using on our site.
