Artworks

Updated

Overview

Artworks are the works the gallery and single-artwork blocks display. Each one has a title, an image gallery, links to up to three artists, catalog Information, and optional Categories. Create them under Artworks → Add New Artwork.

Artworks use the classic editor, and revisions are on. There's no built-in artworks archive page, so put an Artwork Gallery or Artwork block on a page.

Fields

  • Title — name of the work
  • Images — photos of the work; the first one shows in galleries and at the top of the artwork's page
  • Artist / Artist / Artist — up to three linked artists
  • Information
    • Date — a year or date, shown in galleries and on the artwork's page
    • Medium — materials (for example, Oil On Canvas)
    • Copyright — optional copyright line
    • Dimensions — size text
    • On View — when on, shows an “On View” badge (wording uses Gallery Name from Customizer when set)
    • On View Location — where the work is displayed
    • Description — longer copy for the artwork's page and the Artwork block
    • Credit — credit line
  • Categories — used when an Artwork Gallery is set to By Category

Editor basics

  • Editor: classic (the block editor is off)
  • No archive page: use blocks on a page
  • URL slug: artwork

Tips

  • Add at least one image before you place the work in a gallery.
