This is a custom gallery field for Kirby. It lets you pick and order your image files inside the page panel

Here is a blueprint example:

fields:
  ...
  pictures:
    label: Gallery
    type: gallery

This gives you a field like this:

By clicking the "Select images" Button you enter a select mode where you can pick the files to include to you gallery.

The content will be YAML-structured. Inside the template, the field therefore has to be decoded as an array using $page->gallery()->yaml().

By default, all images are displayed in their original aspect ratio. If you would like to force a custom aspect ratio, i.e. to show the thumbnails as squares, you can pass the option aspectRatioto with the format width:height your field in the blueprint:

fields:
  ...
  pictures:
    label: Gallery
    type: gallery
    aspectRatio: 1:1

fields:
  ...
  pictures:
    label: Gallery
    type: gallery
    aspectRatio: 4:3

You can hide the filename under the thumbnail by adding the option displayFilename: falseto the blueprint:

fields:
  ...
  pictures:
    label: Gallery
    type: gallery
    displayFilename: false
