Gallery across multiple pages

    Hi I have the gallery working well on a page (love it, thank you), but I’ve got a footer on my site on which I want to embed the gallery (using a category -achieved through ‘Media Library Categories’ plugin) so that it appears all that time, no matter what page of the site you happen to be on.
    At the moment the gallery is only showing in the footer when I’m on the page where I have created a gallery, but the gallery in the footer disappears when I visit other pages of the site. Hope this makes sense.
    I’m a front end developer so understand basic coding, suggestions to fix this would be gratefully received! NB. I’m using <?php echo do_shortcode(‘[dg new_window=”true” descriptions=”true” category=”Catalogues”]’); ?> in the footer.php file to display the gallery.

    Hi Janet!

    By default Document Gallery (DG) displays only files that are attached to the post or page where it is inserted to. And when You add category option DG filters those files.
    To change that default behavior, You have to add id option that will indicate attached files of what page/post should be considered as input values for the defined shortcode. In case You would like to consider all the attachments across Your WordPress instance, You should use id=-1.
    There is also an option with more speaking for itself name localpost, but being a partial replica of id option it is going to be deprecated soon, so not recommended for use from now on.

    PS: If You’ve found our answers and/or the plugin useful, please rate our efforts. Thanks!
