Images

Create a portfolio with images to use the block as an Image Gallery. Select the Images option, and you’ll see a panel where you can add your images.

Select Images

Click on the Edit Gallery button to open the Select or Upload Media window. Use Media Library images or upload new images in this dialog. Click on an image to select it. In the Attachment Details panel of this window, you can set various values for your image:

• Title, Description, Caption, Alt: These attributes can be displayed in your gallery popup window if configured. To show/hide these attributes, go to Admin Menu → Visual Portfolio → Settings.

To change these settings later, visit Admin Menu → Media → Library and click on the image to adjust its details.

When the image is selected, click on the Select button. To select multiple images, hold the Ctrl or Shift key while selecting.

Once your images are added to your portfolio, they are shown in the Images Settings section, where further adjustments can be made:
