Quick gallery creation in Drupal 6 (bulk upload)

At Drupal.ru, they once again raised the question of creating a gallery of "little blood" and most importantly, quickly. It does not pretend to be original, but many still ask. In general, here's the solution.

We put drupal , download the following modules:
cck , filefield , drupal.org/project/imagefield , image_fupload (read the readme !), Lightbox2 , Pathauto , Token , Transliteration

Include:
everything in CCK, except user reference, node reference, filefield meta
path
pathauto
token
imagecache
imageapi
imagefield
filefield
image fupload (cck)
lightbox2
transliteration

Make a couple of ImageCache presets
images150x150 (scale and crop) and image800x600 (scale)

Create a new type of material Gallery.

Go to field management, create a field.
Gallery image | gallery_single | file | image

In the field settings we change Path settings
gallery / pics / [site-date-dd] - [site-date-mm] - [site-date-yy] / [user-id]
In global settings we set required, number 1

Making another field:
A bunch of images | gallery_pics | file | image_fupload

In the field settings, change the path settings
gallery / pics / [site-date-dd] - [site-date-mm] - [site-date-yy] / [user-id]

In global settings, set required, number of unlimited
Turn on alt text settings and title text settings

Go to display field

Gallery image | hidden | image150x150 image linked to node | hidden
Gallery Image | hidden | hidden | lightbox2: image150x150-> image800x600
Save, the type of material is ready

Go to the synonym setting. For the type of material “Gallery” we set this value: gallery / [title-raw]

Open the css of our topic and add to the end:
.field-field-gallery-pics .odd, .field-field-gallery-pics .even {width: 150px; height: 150px; float: left; margin: 5px; }

We go to the creation of the material, create a new gallery. We check. Do not forget in the permissions to put the right to view-)

Actually a simple gallery is ready. The idea can be developed: add categories, tagging; enable the Views module and make a bunch of views.

Here's a demo
