How To Drupal: Add A Photo To A Gallery AlbumOn the St. Ignatius web site, I’ve set up a photo album section using Gallery 2. The gallery program integrates quite well with Drupal, which makes it easy for those of us who manage the site to upload and edit photos. The process is easy… Log into your web site administrative account, and navigate to the album. (On the St. Ignatius web site, click Photo Album in the main menu block.) On the main photo album page, find the album where you want to add photos, click on the small drop-down menu labeled album actions, and select Edit Album. On the next page, click on Add Items. Follow the instructions there to select and add photos.

Creating and Editing Custom Blocks
Note: You must have the appropriate access rights to administer Blocks. If you do not see the menus and options shown here, see your site administrator. Just need to know how to edit a block? Click here.
Log in to your Drupal account. Go to the Administer Site menu, and click on Blocks. (See the red circle in the illustration below.) This is the page that you will see: ![]()
If this is the first time to work with Blocks, take a few minutes to read the explanation on this page. As you become more familiar with Drupal, some of the text in the introduction will make more sense. Don't worry if it doesn't! Most content contributors and editors do not need to know how it works. Most Blocks are generated by other modules, which will be covered in more detail on other tutorial pages. This page is dedicated to custom Blocks, which you can create yourself.
