Hey all, thanks for reading this post, i wrote this guide because i was having trouble installing the image gallery properly and due to unclear documentation that was available online, so i though i might as well put up this easy follow steps of documentation of installing image gallery. Of coz, i think this is really for people who are new to SilverStripe (Like Me!!).
Oh well give me some credit if you do find this information useful!! thanks Again & Good Luck
Firstly, we need to download the required module
* DataObjectManager Download Link
* SWFUploadField [v0.6] Download Link
* ImageGallery [v1.0] Download Link
Step 1:
Unzip DataObjectManager that u downloaded and place it under SilverStripe root folder, make sure you rename the folder to "dataobject_manager" (naming the folder correctly is extremely important, wrong folder name could lead you to all sort of problems)
Step 2:
On top of URL put in "/dev/build" after your SilverStripe Address eg http://localhost:8888/website-name/dev/build.
This will take you to Environment Builder page, where SilverStripe will build the database structure automatically for that particular module.
Step 3:
Unzip SWFUploadField [v0.6] that u downloaded and place it under SilverStripe root folder, make sure you rename the folder to "swfupload"
Step 4:
Repeat Step 2
Step 5:
Unzip SImageGallery [v1.0] that u downloaded and place it under SilverStripe root folder, make sure you rename the folder to "image_gallery"
Step 6:
Repeat Step 2
Step 7:
Congratulation!! now u have installed the SilverStripe ImageGallery module by UncleCheese
