Jason, This highlights a question I had about documentation. sure the documentation has all the gory details for how to set it up. In this example, and someone else may be able to help answer this, do you mean the documentation for Gallery the program or the use of the module Gallery?
Both, but I would start with the module's docs, first.
I recognize that you haven't used it but based on the knowledge that you do have of using drupal perhaps you can clarrify some things for me.
- Do modules have documentation that can be found online, that isn't
found on the page www.drupal.org/project/modules that is more than just a snippet and a real brief, this is how to install and configure it for starters. A module might say go to administration/settings to configure it. One is left wondering why they don't know how one might want to setup/configure a module for use on a site.
Sometimes there is, but I think that is largely up to the module's author. Where you would see it is on the module's page, under the Resources section, labeled "Read documentation". See Img_assist's module page for a relevant example: http://drupal.org/project/img_assist
- I might want to find out
how to or even if I should use Gallery with other modules like Image, Image_filter, Image_assist, etc. Anyone have any tips on this? Bruce
The only ways that I know of, are asking on this mail list, searching and asking on drupal.org's forums, searching on the Internet in general (least likely, IMO), or just installing it into a scratch system for testing.
