Hello,
I think ZenPhoto is great. However, I'm not sure how to 'integrate' it into my current website.
I either need to do one of these 2 things:

1. Have the gallery itself be part of my current pages (insert code somehow???) if that is even possible.
   or
2. When someone clicks on 'photo gallery', the zenphoto gallery that I have set up comes up for them, and they can easily return to the other areas of my site.

Here is my site (only the home page is up and working): www.NWweddingplace.com. I want to use ZenPhoto for the "Idea Gallery" pages somehow.

Any help would be appreciated. I have one gallery set up already to experiment with here - http://www.nwweddingshop.com/zenphoto/. What should I do?? Help!
Thank you

1. That depends on what you want to do and if you use a CMS for your site. A common way would be to build a zenphoto theme that matches your site's design including main navigation.

Or you could try this: http://www.zenphoto.org/2008/01/hacks/#zenphoto-as-plugin

2. Simply set a link to your zenphoto installation. You can set a url back to your main site within the options: options/gallery configuration/website

I'm probaly not skilled enough at this point to create my own theme unfortunately. I'm sure that would be exactly what I need though.

Can I "plug-in" my whole gallery using the process that was in the link you attached?

Maybe your idea #2 will be the most simple for now though.
Thanks!

You could also use a iframe, such as:

to put it within a page of your site.

This would be an easy but not elegant solution...Frames are evil...:-)

Are they? I like simple... but not evil! What makes them a bad option?

Does the default theme NOT have a link back automatically?

Ah, but it does. As acrylian said, you need to have set the option for your Website Title and Website URL. What version of zenphoto are you running?

Can I include my zenphoto gallery with php (which is located in http://mysite.com/gallery/zenphoto) in http://mysite.com/gallery/index.php? Sorry for digging up an old thread. But the code mentioned doesn't seem to work for me.

You can't include Zenphoto itself in your page. The easiest is to make a theme to look like your site. Please read on our user guide in the category "CMS integration" and if you are using Wordpress there are some plugins for that on the exensions section.

Ok then, thanks
