Featuring my favorite pictures<\/h1>\n

(featuring a keyword gallery)<\/h2>\n
\n

I wanted to have a section on my home page which featured my favorite pictures… but I didn’t want to go through the labor of duplicating each picture into a new gallery to feature. After doinking with CSS for a while (and coming up very empty handed) I stumbled across David’s<\/a> automatic “recent” featured gallery. Brilliant! As a result, I give all credit to David<\/a> since I really just trimmed and modified his code for this. Basically I modified David’s code to show a keyword gallery instead of a timeline gallery. You could, of course, use this for any keyword you choose.<\/p>\n

You can see it in action on my site<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Instructions<\/h3>\n

Requirements: A smugmug power user account and a sense of adventure.<\/p>\n

Steps:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Download the two pre-made smugmug files for this:\n
      \n
    1. for the custom JS field: forJavaScriptSection.txt<\/a><\/li>\n
    2. for the footer field: forFooterSection.txt<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n
    3. Log into your smugmug site (sure, obvious)<\/li>\n
    4. Click the control panel link<\/li>\n
    5. In the “organize & customize” section, click the “customize” link.<\/li>\n
    6. Open smugmug file “a” using notepad (Windows) or TextEdit (Macintosh)<\/li>\n
    7. Copy all the text from smugmug file “a” (forJavaScriptSection.txt<\/a>) and paste it into the javascript section of the customization settings page<\/li>\n
    8. Modify the second-to-last line of the text you just pasted to include your own gallery title, description, keyword and thumbnail
      \ni.e. Change the variables for the function “addKeywordFeatured”<\/li>\n
    9. Copy all the text from smugmug file “b” (forFooterSection.txt<\/a>) and paste it into footer section of the customization settings page<\/li>\n
    10. Modify the footer section to change the square brackets ([ ]) to angle brackets (< >)
      \ni.e. [script] becomes <script><\/li>\n
    11. Click the “Update” button at the bottom of the customize page<\/li>\n
    12. Finally, make sure you have at least one of your galleries featured.\u00a0 The technique I used requires the featured section to exist.\u00a0
      \nNote: <\/strong>If you don’t want to have featured galleries and would, instead, like to have your favorites gallery included in the “gallery categories” section I’ve created a separate set of JavaScript you should instead use in step 6:       forJavaScriptSection-Gallery.txt<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
