How to use the gallery feature

If you're looking to showcase your products, services, or items in a visually appealing way, why not consider adding a photo gallery to your Durable site? It's a great way to catch visitors' attention and leave a lasting impression.

This section is added by default when you create a website; however, you can always add it to the site later.

Types of gallery

There are two options for your gallery view:

  • The CAROUSEL allows up to 12 images that scroll sideways.

  • The GRID option will showcase all 12 images at once.

  2. Click the "Add section +" button to add this section.

  3. ​Click "Image carousel" or "Image grid" from the section selector.
