    I am using Maxigallery for years now. Since having problems with dragsort view (see other post) and not finding any solution for that problem I am now on the search for a new gallery snippet.
    I found EvoGallery and SimpleGallery whereof the latter seems to be the most actively developped. The problem here is that the only documentation I found is in russian language. Even with heavy usage of google translator I was not able to get it running.
    What I read was that many people are changing from MaxiGallery and EvoGallery to SimpleGallery because they think that this is the most future proof.

    I would like to get some suggestions which gallery snippet to use. For SimpleGallery I would be glad if there were a hint to a tutorial or working example.

      SimpleGallery is the only and best pick.

      You need PHP 5.6 =>

      Just a short basic help;

      > Install SimpleGallery from the Extras.
      > Update DocLister from the Extras.
      > Check your plugin > configuration settings

      [!sgLister?

      !]
      
      <div class="clear"></div>
      
      [+pages+]
      
      
      <style>
      .pagination li{list-style:none; margin:4px; padding:0; float:left;}
      .pagination li:before{content:'';}
      </style>
      



      Chunk Foto Tpl: (foto-tpl)

      <a href="[+sg_image+]" style="padding:10px; float:left;"><img src="[[phpthumb? &input=`[+sg_image+]` &options=`w=120,h=120,zc=1`]]" alt="[+sg_title+]"></a>

        Evolution user, I like the back-end speed and simplicity smiley

        Thank you.

        I installed SimpleGallery from extras and newest DocLister on PHP 7.1. When I am on the manager page of a ressource that I included in the configuration of SG there is an SG tab that is otherwise completely empty.
        Is there something more to configure so that there is a gallery management visible in the SG tab? Do I have to enter a controller name in config? Which name? Where do I find controller if needed?

          The reason for the empty SG tab in manager was the missing translation in my system language. After I added the translation SG works. Maybe this helps someone else.
