Add galleries to existing website?

Is there a link showing how to attach Backlight galleries to an existing website? I want to keep my existing index.html landing page and add galleries though a link. Simple, I'm sure, just not sure how to set up Backlight galleries and not have the main Backlight page show up instead.

Thanks!

D Leland

Re: Add galleries to existing website?

install Backlight and only use it to create albums.

Since you're posting in the Backlight forum rather than the Backlight 2 forum, I'm assuming you're using Backlight 1. Just don't install the Pages module or the index.php and .htaccess files that come with Backlight + Pages.

On you landing page you'll need to create a link to the Galleries page that Backlight creates.
