Description
Well it does exactly what it says on the tin! fGalleryTags is a plugin that allows easy access for embedding images from fGallery into your Wordpress posts using a simple tag.

Support
I am in no way a professional software developer, so I will assist if possible. This plugin was originally developed as a solution to a problem that I had. This means that it works on my set-up, but has not been tested on other Wordpress/fGallery versions.

Please post any support issues or questions you may have at the bottom of this page.

Requirements
This plugin has only been tested with:

Installation
Before attempting to install this plugin, please ensure you have a working installation of fGallery. If fGallery is not installed, this plugin will not function.

  1. Download fGalleryTags from above
  2. Unzip fGalleryTags intp your default wp-plugins directory
  3. Activate the plugin by logging into your WordPress administration area, going to ‘Plugins’, then clicking ‘Activate’ at the end of the ‘fGalleryTags’ row.

You will now be ready to rock and roll. Just follow the instructions below for ‘Adding Images to Posts’.

Adding Images to Posts
Adding images into Posts from your fGallery using fGalleryTags is a two stage process.

Firstly, before we can add the tags into your post, you must know the Id of the image we want to add. To do this go to your Wordpress administration area and select the ‘fGallery’ link. Then select the ‘Manage Albums’ submenu. Now, select ‘Manage Images’ on the Album containing the image you want to add. Make a note of the number in the first column of the row containing the image you want to add, headed Id.

Secondly, to add the image into your post use the following tag:
[fgallery img=X]
Where X is the number (Id) you found earlier.

You can have as many images as you would like in a post, even the same image repeated.
