How do I add images to galleries?

To manually apply tags to images, click Media and edit an image. The Galleries text box will appear in the right sidebar. Enter a comma separated list of galleries to add to this image. The galleries may appear in lower-case letters, but will save according to what is entered. If the image is opened in the post editor, then the familiar tag editor will appear instead of the text box.

To automatically apply calendar-based galleries to uploaded images, click Settings > 2BC Image Gallery, check Add Calendar Based Galleries, then click Save Changes.
