Gallery Filter Instructions
A few simple guidelines for Gallery Filter
In order to use the Gallery Filter Element correctly you will need to go over these few simple instructions
ADDING THE GALLERY FILTER
1) When you drop Gallery Filter on your page you will see 4 default titles and the 'All-filter' appear with a drop area under it, in this area you are only allowed to drop the Gallery Element from Weebly.
Please make sure to drop the Gallery Element right above the default text: 'Drag Elements Here Use Only Weebly's Gallery Element Here'. You should see a horizontal blue line appearing of where the element will get dropped.

2) Upload your images the normal way you would upload images to the Gallery, this can be in bulk or one by one.
ASSIGN AN IMAGE TO A CATEGORY
1) Double click on the image inside your gallery until you see the 'caption' option appear.
2) Each image in your gallery needs a caption starting with one of the following names: (10 is the max of categories available)
filter1 -
filter2 -
filter3 -
filter4 -
filter5 -
filter6 -
filter7 -
filter8 -
filter9 -
filter10 -
regardless of how your category will be called like in the title, always respect one of the above names to categorize your image,
so filter# space dash (filter1 - ).
Note that there is no space between the word filter and the number.
If you want to add an actual caption that will appear you will have to add it after the dash added. So for example: filter1 - My Caption 1
filter1 -
filter2 -
filter3 -
filter4 -
filter5 -
filter6 -
filter7 -
filter8 -
filter9 -
filter10 -

3) What if an item belongs to more then one category?
Simply add a new category before the dash with a space between categories and that's it:

Again do note there is no space between the word filter and the number, but there is a space between each category followed by a dash and an optional actual image caption.
4) Click on a filter title to change its name to the actual name you want it to be.
In the case of the image below, we changed filter1 to Web design, although this name has changed, to assign an image inside your gallery to this category you would still have to use filter1 -
because it is the first category element in your filter titles (apart from the All filter)

So each consecutive title will have a consecutive number, the first one being filter1 - ; the second one being filter2 -; the third one being filter3 - and so on until a maximum of 10 categories.
Needless to say, each image will belong to the 'All' category.
