NopCommerce Image, Video Gallery Plugin Faq
FAQ:
- I have made a gallery, where can I add the photo's?
- Can plugin be used only for gallery? Or does it have file manager for managing all media files?
Right now this plugin can be used only for image and video galleries but we can improve this plugin according to your requirements. In this case we will charge you only for the work that we will do.
- We want the gallery to be expose at the main header of the website (the same way it shown in the demo) how can we do it?
You had to click on “edit” button and check "is enabled" checkbox after installation of this plugin
You should specify the widget zone if you want that your header looks like on the demo site you should enter the "header_menu_after" text into the widget zone field. - In our system we see the widget (is this the way we need to see it?)
You didn’t add the localization file

Will I have access to cshtml files in case I need to change something?
Yes, you will have access to cshtml files but it will be better if you override gallery views in your theme.

You have the custom theme and you should add following strings to the appropriate places in the _Root.Head.chtml file
Html.AppendScriptParts("~/Scripts/jquery-1.7.1.min.js");
...skip...
@Html.NopScripts(this.Url, ResourceLocation.Head)
