website layout

Hey, i am very new to indexhibit 2 and built my website with default features. I have created a section called projects, with about 10 exhibits within it. When i clicked on the section, before clicking on the exhibits one by one, i had a serie of thumbnails which described each project. It was very useful but now is gone! i am not sure what i did.

I want it back, and actually want it not only when i click on the section but once i load my index page.
PLEASE HELP

Simply click Exhibit options, then select Visual Index as your format and section as the media source.

* next time please post your sites url address, so one can take a look. It's hard to be guessing.

Arsondpi, please another question! how is it possible to have those thumbnails when i open the page. They only open when i click on projects
please check najlaelzein.com

Click on Page options and under Make main page click the On button.

Great!! Thanks a lot.
I still have another question. I installed the indexpand plugin. And the menu expansion used to work on the main page, but now that the thumbnails of project exhibits are on main page, the indexpand works only when i click on another section.
Any suggestions?

I don't really follow what you mean...
This is your projects page: najlaelzein.com/index.php/project/
It is currently not your home page. Your home page is blank.
Hmmm...

Yes sorry, this is another problem i am facing with the style plugin. Everytime i want to change style, all my sections disappear (actually become white).
I updated it again can you check?

arsondpi / 2013-08-18 18:18:40   

No I mean that you home page is not your projects page.
Click on Page options of the Projects page and under Make main page click the On button to set is as a Home page.

Oh, yes, actually i did then changed it because it look awkward.
I now want to have all thumbnails only when i click on projects.
How is that possible?

It's not - you can either have the indexpand plugin activated (so projects expands when it's clicked) or disable the Indexpand plugin and make Projects a normal link.

hmm. thats unfortunate!!
Thanks anyway.
