Installation Instructions ------------------------- 1. Install Gallery 2 and Drupal (see their respective installation documents). Gallery2 should be *inside* your Drupal installation so that it's accessible by the same website. If you accidentally install Gallery somewhere else, you can create a symlink to it from inside your drupal site, eg: cd /var/www/drupal.site ln -s /path/to/gallery2 Or you can move Gallery2. If you're going to do that, read this FAQ: http://codex.gallery2.org/index.php/Gallery2:FAQ#How_can_I_move_my_gallery_installation_from_one_folder_to_another.3F 2. Copy gallery.module to your drupal modules/ directory. 3. Enable the gallery module in administer -> modules in your drupal installation. 4. Go to administer -> settings -> gallery and enter the path to your gallery2 installation. So if your Drupal is installed at: /var/www/www.drupal.site And your gallery2 is at: /var/www/drupal.site/gallery2 Then your Gallery2 path would be: gallery2/ Your gallery should now be available at: http://your.site/gallery 5. Enable the "Gallery Block" in administer -> blocks Note: the default themes don't work so well with Drupal yet. You'll get best results if you edit the default theme and move all the blocks out of the sidebar and into the album and photo pages. There's a drupal specific theme on the way, stay tuned. Note: To get the rewrite module working, you need to first configure and use it with the standalone Gallery2 install. Once it's working there disable all the rules except for the 'Show Item' rule and set its URL pattern to: gallery/%path% Then when you browse to http://your.site/gallery you should see short urls inside drupal. NOTE: this is beta software, so it might not always work. If you have questions or problems contact: James Walker
