Docs - Uploading your images
Use the Media Uploader in Write Posts / Write Pages to upload your gallery images. With the Media Uploader pop-up open, select "Choose Files to Upload" and browse to your chosen image. Once the Media Uploader screen has uploaded your file and finished "crunching", copy the URL shown in the "File URL" box and paste it in to the dfcg-image custom field in the Write Post screen.
Although this section was originally written for WPMU users, it is just as applicable to WordPress users, especially if you have selected the Full URL option in the Image file management settings. -

Docs - How to name and organise your default images
A key feature of this plugin is its automatic use of default images in the event a Custom Field dfcg-image has not been created for a Post/Page. This is a useful fallback because missing images can prevent the gallery from loading properly. Therefore, it is recommended, though not compulsory, that you set up default images as described below.
Gallery Method: Multi Option and One Category
These methods use Posts and Categories to populate the gallery. In the event that a Custom Field is missing from a Post, the plugin will display a default image determined by the Category ID for that Post. Create a default image for each of the Categories specified in the Multi Option Settings, or the Category specified in the One Category Settings, depending on which Gallery Method you have selected.
In either case, default images must be named as follows: XX.jpg, where XX is the Category ID. For example, the default image that will be displayed for a Post in Category ID=8 must be named 8.jpg. Once you have created your default images, and named them as per these instructions, upload them to the folder specified in the Multi Option or One Category Settings as appropriate.
Gallery Method: Pages
In this case, only one default image is required, and you have complete freedom to name the image as you wish (any valid image extension is permitted). Upload the image to somewhere on your site and enter the full URL to the image in the Pages Settings.
Note for WordPress Mu users
The default images feature is not available for WPMU.

Settings: Image Management
Complete the following settings to set up your gallery image file management preferences. Your selection determines the form of the image URL which is entered in the dfcg-image Custom Field added to the Posts or Pages featured in the gallery.
Need more help with understanding this Setting? Further information can be found in the Configuration Guide.Full URL (Default)
Enter Custom Field dfcg-image in this format: http://www.yourdomain.com/folder/anotherfolder/myimage.jpg
Select this option if you want complete freedom to reference images anywhere in your site and in multiple locations.Tip: This is a good option if you keep images in many different directories both inside and outside of the /wp-content/uploads folder, as it allows maximum flexibility for where you store your images. Also, select this option if your images are stored off-site eg Flickr, Picasa etc. This is also a recommended option if you use the Media Uploader for uploading images to your site - just copy the File URL from the Uploader screen and paste it into the custom field.Partial URL
Enter Custom Field dfcg-image in this format: subfoldername/myimage.jpg
Select this option if your images are organised into many sub-folders within one main folder. The URL to the main folder is entered in the field below.Tip: This is the "default" option if you have upgraded from an earlier version of the Dynamic Content Gallery.URL to Custom Field images folder:
If you selected Partial URL you must also specify the URL to the top-level folder which contains the relevant sub-folders and images. Include http://www.yourdomain.com/ in this URL, for example: http://www.yourdomain.com/myspecial_image_folder/
Note for WordPress Mu users
Image File Management is disabled for WPMU. The Custom field dfcg-image must always use the Full URL to the image, eg http://www.yourdomain.com/folder/anotherfolder/myimage.jpg. See Uploading your images for how to upload images to your blog.

Docs - 2. Gallery Method (REQUIRED)
The Dynamic Content Gallery offers three different methods for populating the gallery with images. Select the option most appropriate for your needs.
Multi Option
Complete freedom to select up to 9 images from a mix of categories. Set up the relevant options in 2.1 MULTI OPTION Settings
Tip: This is a the original method used in previous versions of the plugin, and the option to choose if you want to mix posts from different categories.One Category
Images are pulled from a user-definable number of Posts from one selected Category. Set up the relevant options in 2.2 ONE CATEGORY Settings
Tip: This is the best option if you use a Featured or News category for highlighting certain posts. You can also use this option to display the latest Posts from all categories.Pages
Images are pulled from Pages, rather than Posts. Set up the relevant options in 2.3 PAGES
Tip: This could be a good option if your site is more CMS than Blog. -
Rating: +0
Docs - 2.1 MULTI OPTION Settings (Required if you selected Multi Option in Gallery Method)
Configure this section if you chose Multi Option in the Gallery Method Settings. The Multi Option method of populating the gallery provides up to 9 image "slots", each of which can be configured with its own Category and "Post Select". For the Post Select: enter 1 for the latest post, 2 for the last-but-one post, 3 for the post before that, and so on.
Need more help understanding this Setting? Further information on the possible Post Select/Category schemes can be found in the Configuration Guide.Tip: If you want to pull in the latest posts from one category, don't use Multi Option, use the One Category Gallery Method instead. It's much more efficient in terms of database queries.Tip: Want to show less than 9 images? Delete the contents of the Post Select fields for image slots you don't need.URL to default "Category" images folder:
Enter the URL to the folder which contains the default images. The default images will be pulled into the gallery in the event that Posts do not have an image specified in the Custom Field dfcg-image. This must be an absolute URL. For example, if your default images are stored in a folder named "default" in your http://www.yourdomain.com/wp-content/uploads folder, the URL entered here will be: http://www.yourdomain.com/wp-content/uploads/default/
Note for WordPress Mu users
The default images feature is disabled for WPMU.

Docs - 3. Slide Pane Descriptions (OPTIONAL)
This option is applicable to all Gallery Method Settings.
The Dynamic Content Gallery displays a description for each image in the gallery Slide Pane. Choose between Manual or Auto Description methods for displaying a description for each image in the gallery Slide Pane. The Slide Pane has relatively little space in which to display this text, and therefore it is recommended to keep the description short, probably less than 25 words.
Manual
Create your own Slide Pane description using a Custom field dfcg-desc. Enter your text in this Custom field, for example: Here's our latest news!
When configured for Manual descriptions, the plugin looks for the image description in this sequence: (1) a custom field dfcg-desc, (2) a Category Description if that exists (not applicable to the Pages Gallery Method), or finally (3) the default description created here.
Tip: Manual Default Description: Allowed XHTML tags are: <a href=" " title=" ">, <strong>, <em>, <br />Tip: Create the Category Descriptions in Dashboard>Posts>Categories.Auto
With this option, Slide Pane Descriptions are created automatically from your Post/Page content. You may specify the number of characters to be displayed, and the text for the "More" link displayed at the end of the Auto description.
