This is the closest thing I could find to what I’m trying to figure out. I’m trying to get the carousel from the plugin Gallery Carousel Without JetPack to work when I use the mla_gallery shortcode instead of the gallery shortcode. Usually I’m pretty good at figuring stuff like this out if it’s php, but I don’t know anything about how shortcodes work. The help documentation doesn’t really explain this in detail enough for me to understand it.

I read through the documentation on that again, and I guess I should add a little more info.
I would like to use this with a category gallery, because I create albums with categories on my art site. That way if I say this piece is a traditional, pencil, drawing it will put it any of those galleries without having to manually put it into all of them.
Is it only doable by putting in the ids= part of the shortcode?

Well now I’ve answered my own question. All I had to do to it was put in the extra bit of code mla_alt_shortcode=gallery.
