Commonly Used Settings

Site Link and Copyright Text

The site link is a link that will appear at the bottom of gallery pages, typically in the lower-left corner. A common example is a link back to your home page.

$site_link['url'] = '';

Using '' (an empty string) disabls the Site Link.

$site_link['title'] = 'Home Page';

Link text

If you specify copyright text, it will appear at the bottom of your gallery. See http://www.whatiscopyright.org/ for information about copyrights.

$copyright['txt'] = 'Images copyright © 2005, 2006, 2007 original creators or assignees. All rights reserved.';

This text will appear at the bottom of any page with a gallery image or thumbnail images, usually in the center.

Gallery Size

These don't specify the size of the gallery table, but they affect it.

$default_nav_width = 560;

Default width for gallery/directory navigation

rows and thumbnail link rows.

$extra_size['pct'] = 2.5;

Add some extra-size percentage (0 to 10)

$extra_size['width'] = 0;

See http://qdig.sourceforge.net/Support/EditCaptions

The link to request editing a caption appears in the copyright area.

// Enable the caption-editing (Admin) link.

Set a username and password or disable authentication to edit captions.

Enable the password crypting form.

$auth['realm'] = 'Qdig Captions';
