The Photo Gallery widget makes it easy to add multiple images to your site. When images in the Photo Gallery are clicked, they can be opened in a lightbox gallery or linked to a page on your site, a website URL, a popup, an anchor, an email address or more. You can add titles, descriptions and alternative text to each image.
Add the Photo Gallery widget to your site. To learn more about adding widgets to your site, see Add Widgets. Once the widget has been placed, the Content Editor appears.
