Photo Section Online
It took me a while, but the photo section is finally up. I could’ve easily install a photo gallery script and save myself all the trouble customising the templates; however, creating a photo gallery using Movable Type is the only way to maintain a consistent design layout throughout SG Watch.
After fiddling with MT for several months, it wasn’t very difficult for me to create a template for photo galleries. The biggest problem I had was trying to figure out how to manipulate the next and previous entries link tags so that they only work within a photo album. Although one of the disadvantages of using the most popular publishing tool is being susceptible to spammers, MT’s large user base makes it easy to get help and support; in fact, I found a solution to my problem through a simple Google search.
More photos will be added shortly. But for now, enjoy the beautiful fall colours at Algonquin Provincial Park.
