Image Gallery Component

Hello,

I would like to create a gallery component that enables you to pick images from the media gallery. Is it possible to do that?

Hello Peter,

Thanks for writing in! Regretfully that would not be possible because when you use the “Create Gallery” feature of the Media Gallery, it will return a gallery shortcode like this: [gallery ids="123,456,789"]. And be advised that in our Component paramater types, we only have the Image. [https://theme.co/docs/parameters#control-types-image]

Best Regards.

So its not possible to create a feature that allows user to create a photo gallery (e.g. in a blog post) in cornerstone?

Thank you for the update.

If you want to create a customizable gallery, you can use the Looper Provider feature with the ACF Gallery field. Please check out this video for more details.

Let us know if you need more info.

Best regards.

So to make it more clear. We have a blog and have the requirement that on blog posts we want to add gallerys that depend on that specific post. So its not a “one-time” gallery thats created only one.

If you need to create a gallery that is attached to the post, you can use the default gallery option from X or Pro. Please check the documentation below for more info.

I cant really add a new gallery in the media tab; I dont have it there.

You need to upload your own images to the Media > Library panel while editing a post. Please provide the login details in a secure note so we can create an example for you.
