How to add an image gallery & video gallery to a blog?
Posted on the
Image and video galleries can also be integrated into the blog pages of blogs.
First click on "3 Pages" and mark the desired blog page, then click on ">" at the top right.
Insert an image or video gallery object into the grid and double-click the object and add the images or videos you want.
If you don't have a blog yet, then click on point 1 first, then click on "blog" and click on "add" on the right.
Now create the first blog article and Website X5 creates the blog page for this, which can then be found under point 3.
To link the blog page in the menu, read this guide, see

Thanks Daniel W..
Will you please share a screenshot of these steps.
I'm unable to find your suggested "3 Pages" & ">" options.

Here is a video for creating a blog in WebSite X5, it's for the old 2019 version, but the current version is similar.

The language in the video is English, the Text and subtitles in German.

I know how to create a blog.

1) Here is the screenshot (german version) for the click points to create the 1st blog post.
2) And here is the screenshot (german version of WebSite X5) for selecting the blog page for editing.
3) (Without screenshot) The gallery object is dragged into the desired grid with the mouse button pressed, then the gallery object is opened with a double-click.
4) Click here to add images to the gallery.
5) And select the images for the gallery here.
If you have problems with the WebSite X5 Explorer, click on the folder symbol with the mouse button held down, then the Windows Explorer will open for the image selection.
When all the images for the gallery have been selected, then click "OK".
Click on "Preview" to view the blog page with the gallery.
Then click on "Export" and enter the information about the website and the FTP parameters for your own web space in order to put the created blog page on the Internet.
I hope the video and my tutorial with screenshots will help you create a gallery blog page.
Do not forget this.

Later a screen shot of point 3) of my instructions, drag gallery object into the grid.
For a blog post choose "Ressources"
And then insert a video, a Youtube video and/or a slideshow
@Daniel, purtroppo se utilizzi la funzione BLOG, non esiste la griglia. E non puoi aggiungere come dici tu...
Ma si può fare SOLO come dice @John.

@Daniel, unfortunately if you use the BLOG function, there is no grid. And you can't add as you say....
But you can ONLY do as @John says.

Sorry - point 3 was wrong.
I had a template to test and I had installed and removed many objects, somehow my mind was somewhere else.
Nessun problema, speriamo che un giorno si possa lavorare sul Blog come per le pagine normali.
No problem, hopefully someday we will be able to work on the Blog in the same way as for regular pages.
