There are a few options for you to select on that page but now the system is setup to automatically add Social Icons to the bottom of every post or page content.

A sample of what it looks like is found at the bottom of this post.

The features are very simple to use.  Just hover over the icons and a pop up will tell you what it does.  You will notice that the icons are only usable if your cursor is in or has selected a table object on your post/page.

Test it out and let us know what you think.  Any feedback is much appreciated and as always any support should be handled by submitting a ticket in ”Site Support”.

Also, the newest flash version of the Photo Gallery has been recently added to the main menu as “Photo Gallery”.  Please look around to see how to add Galleries and Pictures.  As you can tell it is has been significantly simplified over the previous version and is pretty self explanatory.

Once you have created a gallery and added a few photos to it, you then want to add that gallery to a page or post.  To add a gallery to a page or a post you go to the page/post editor and then click the “Add Gallery” icon as shown below

Then you select the gallery(s) you want to display and that is it.  There is an option to display all galleries, one gallery, or if you hold down control you can select multiple galleries to display.

We suggest creating a “Gallery” page that displays all galleries and then also inserting the individual galleries into your posts about the events or games.

Let us know in ”Site Support” if you have questions and we look forward to your Gallery feedback.

FYI… Right now the Gallery colors do not match your site colors but that is being addressed in the next release.
