You're confusing less-techie with Clippy :) Seriously. Click on the gallery on the left, then you have "Create new gallery" on the right. Of course some stuff could be improved or be done more self-explenatory, but I think, the basics are already here. Maybe we could improve enabling plugins in different collections a little bit easier than editing .configxml, but it really depends what you want/need at the end. For the casual Freeflux User, it's enough if he has the gallery plugin enabled in the gallery folder, for our clients we do everything for them anyway :) And the others in between should be able to read the (currently missing) documentation, So, I think, we better invest our tim in some simple step-by-step-instructions, than in trying to create magic-wizards for tasks, you usually only do once or twice. Having said that, patches/contributions are of course always welcome . chregu > Some possible fields or options when creating now new sites are already > too difficult for any non-insider...
