Hello, I am an infrequent user of rapid weave but have used off & on for years.  
I am trying to build a new site with the main aim of showing a gallery of images.  
I am using Source stacks and wondering the best way to do this?  
I have also been told by my friend who is hosting it that I can’t use PHP,  
Anyways around this?  
any help greatly appreciated.  
cheers

Hi @peekaybee,

First things first: your friend is hosting and he’s telling you you can’t use PHP? Is this because of limitations on his end, or because he thinks RapidWeaver doesn’t do PHP?

The Source framework doesn’t come with a gallery stack, but most third party gallery stacks should work. Just keep in mind that you an’t use PHP, but whether a stack needs PHP or not is usually mentioned in the requirements.

**Photo Pro** by Weaver’s Space is a great gallery stack and unless they forgot to mention it on the product page, it doesn’t require PHP.

There are cheaper ones available that do the trick, but most do require PHP I’m afraid.

Cheers,  
Erwin
