So its really easy to get down the wrong path.</p> <p>Also, I believe now that I'm thinking about it again the gallery shortcode you originally posted needs to be put in the HTML tab of the visual editor instead to generate properly. </p> <p>Let us know if you have any other issues, marking this topic as resolved for now.</p> <p>Regards,</p> <p>Devin </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/help-with-creating-a-gallery-please#post-87468 Mon, 10 Dec 2012 18:53:48 +0000 orangehagis 87468@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Ah ha thats brilliant Devin Thank you very much indeed, sry I am still learning</p> <p>Thank you very much indeed for your help its been very much appreciated</p> <p>Many thanks<br /> Hagis </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/help-with-creating-a-gallery-please#post-87457 Mon, 10 Dec 2012 18:31:02 +0000 Devin 87457@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>It is not part of the theme but instead it is a built in shortcode of Wordpress.</p> <p>When looking at the visual editor, just above the toolbar you should see "Upload/Insert" and then an icon. Click on that icon to get the image popup (part of wordpress).</p> <p>From there, one of the tabs should be Gallery where you can arrange and modify the images attached to the post/page and then insert it into the page.</p> <p>Regards,</p> <p>Devin </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/help-with-creating-a-gallery-please#post-87447 Mon, 10 Dec 2012 18:19:54 +0000 orangehagis 87447@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi Devin</p> <p>Thanks for your reply, I understand your logic as with other themes I have used in the past Ive gone to the shortcode dropdown button and selected the item e.g.. gallery, I want to add but I dont have the short code gallery available in that menu with this theme so I havent had the pop up window that normally appears, would explain why I am so confused. Should there be a gallery selection available with the shortcode menu ?</p> <p>All I have done is to attach the images and copy and paste the code, the images appear in the content but with any organization.</p> <p>Many thanks<br /> Hagis </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/help-with-creating-a-gallery-please#post-87438 Mon, 10 Dec 2012 18:05:46 +0000 Devin 87438@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hey Hagis,</p> <p>Yes, that is correct. What you are doing is just using the built in wordpress gallery function.</p> <p>When you are viewing the attached images in the pop up, you should see a tab called "Gallery" with a number next to it indicating the images attached to it. Select that tab then hit Insert and a large blue box with a picture icon should get inserted into the visual editor. Publish the page just to make sure its working correctly.</p> <p>Then you can modify the gallery to use 7 columns and finish it up.</p> <p>If you are still having issues with it, create a temporary admin account for me and i'll log in and take a look. Just make sure to specify the page you are working on.</p> <p>You can send the information to my email at DevinVinson (at) gmail.com.

Where there is the thumbnail grid and when an image is selected it opens in the lightbox feature.</p> <p>I understand that I have to attach the images to that page which I have done. The shortcode I have found used by others which is placed in the content area is this<br /> [gallery columns="7" size="thumbnails" order="desc" order by="ID"]</p> <p>A little help would be appreciated<br /> Many thanks<br /> Hagis </p>
