The egallery plug-in is a bit different from the other parts of MPN.
- First, it has its own subdirectory under the root directory of MPN.
- It has its own language subdirectory with language files that is independent of the MPN language files. For more information on translation, check the appendix.
- It has the need for special directory rights. This is due to the upload feature of Gallery.
If you start using the gallery, please check your file and directory rights as mentioned in the installation chapter of the manual. Many questions on the forum are due to wrong file and directory permissions.
