INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: These instructions refer to the new version of Ozio Gallery 5.0.0 and later.
The extension installation of Ozio Gallery comprises a component and plugins. These are loaded and activated automatically during the installation.
Ozio Gallery now consists in some skin called "Nano" and "jGallery" and "lightGallery". The skin Nano and the skin jGallery and the skin lightGallery is made in Java Script and are is also ready for viewing by mobile devices.
To use the skins "Nano" and "jGallery" and "lightGallery" is necessary to upload your images to an album in Google Photos from a personal profile. This Google service is free. And it's possible to create unlimited albums with unlimited images. Each new Gmail account is a new account for Google Photos.
The Skin Nano also support the free service Flickr.com which allows a much faster display and upload of images with the negligible limit of 1000 photos per album.
There is no need to resize the images before uploading to Google Photos or Flickr.com, so it's highly recommended to load the images at their original size without losing time to resize them. Ozio Gallery will find the image and automatically correct the size based on the available space of the gallery on your site.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR FLICKR.COM

Using the plugin to enter the galleries in content or form
Modifying or creating a new article appears below the Joomla editor the button "Ozio Gallery." Place your cursor in the position where you want the content displays the gallery, then press "Ozio Gallery" and select the gallery you want. Content appears in a code like this: that indicates the ID of the gallery displayed.
Warning: show only one gallery for each page.
You can enter the code of the plugin also in custom modules of Joomla, but remember to activate the "Prepare Content" option in the Basic Options params of the module. The pluing of Ozio Gallery is installed and activated automatically by installing the extension.
If you do not want to have visible menu items of the galleries that you have included in the content or modules or list you need to move these menu items to a new menu. Create a new menu which we will call such 'hidden' here we can move or create our menu items of Ozio Gallery that we want to insert in content or form or list. This menu should remain published and also the menu items should remain published. The module of this menu may not be published so as not to appear on the site giving you the possibility to use also the galleries created in the hidden menu.
Create multiple image galleries on the same site
With Ozio Gallery you can create multiple image galleries on the same site, each new menu item you create can be connected to a different album of Google.
There is also a type of menu item that displays the list of all the galleries created with the skin Nano and jGallery and lightGallery. An index with the image preview of each album, the title and other informations such as number of photos taken. Within the parameters of this menu item "Album List", you can specify which albums to show and set the thumbnail size.
For best results we recommend you create the menu item "Album List" as main menu item and the menu items of galleries as sub-menu of the list.
Add photos from multiple users
It is currently possible with your Google user to create new albums on Google Photos, activate that user in the Ozio Gallery panel to show the related albums. If these albums are shared and the ability to give other users the privilege to upload photos is activated on Google Photos, the images uploaded by others Google users in these albums will also be visible in the Ozio Gallery, without the need to activate these other users in the Ozio Gallery panel.
Album title and photo description
On menu item parameters enable "Show album name", this will display in the top bar of the album the name of the album present in Google Photos. To change this name you need to act on the page of Google Photos, go to the list of albums and save a new title for the album you are displaying in that menu item. After a few minutes in the gallery on the site will appear the new title.
For each image in the album of Google Photos may be associated a description that will appear in the gallery on the site. To enter a description is necessary to go to the album page on Google Photos, view the photo and on the top right click on "Add Caption", after a few minutes it will appear in the bottom bar on the gallery on the site.
All your images are cloud hosted and automatically scaled using hi-quality settings.
