Running lastest version of gallery and stupidly forgot to click the right picture for the cover of the album.

How can I now change that cover pic, there doesn't seem to be away to do it from the ACP and the "options" dropdown doesn't have that option either ( tried it on 2 skins including default skin).

This is a fresh new forum and this is the first lot of images. I have the following setup

global album - album - images

Am I doing something wrong or overlokking a setting ?


Many Thanks

From the front end can you not edit that album or an image and then choose to set it as the cover image ? :)

Nope :)

I have (with default skin) Gone through the root album - no options there - sub album - no option there - image - no option there

I have edited the albums and the image, nothing in there to let me set a cover image. I have un-approved the cover image and there is still no option to set another image to cover.

Where is the option suppossed to be ?

Thanks for helping :)

:) Should be there.

Try going to the user menu > My Gallery >

Then navigate down using the links on the right if needed and click the edit button on the right of the album in question. It should then turn to look like the "review / publish" page and there's option on the right to se a cover image. See pics:

I made a second album and that worked just fine, going back to the first album I must have made it through the ACP and not the front end so it didn't give me all the options I needed.

Thanks for the help Andy much appricated
