Gallery columns

Are you using the Jetpack plugin or some other plugin for your galleries?

Would you also be able to provide a link to a post or two where your galleries aren’t displaying correctly in P2 so we can take a look?

I am using the RPS Image Gallery plugin set to 3 columns thumbnails –

This is the site they are trying to get working galleries.

If you haven’t already, I’d suggest testing this plugin with another theme – like Twenty Sixteen or Twenty Fifteen – and seeing if it work as expected there.

It looks like the plugin assigns a width of 90% to each image, which is why it’s expanding to fit almost the entire width of the column:

.rps-image-gallery img {
    margin: 5% !important;
    width: 90% !important;
}

And since these values have !important they cannot be overridden with custom CSS. If I change that value in my browser inspector the images reduce in size.

Have you tried the built-in WordPress gallery?

Thanks, i will try the WP gallery and report the results here.

Thanks for help.

The WP gallery works but i like the lightbox popout that the RPS gallery plugin has instead of the atachtment page that show the photos using the wp setup. I dont like a diff page for every photo.

I will try other things or another theme. They like the theme so I have to try to get it to work for them if possible.

Have you tried the Jetpack Carousel module? It works with standard built-in WordPress galleries, but if you activate the Carousel feature, it opens images in a nice lightbox:

I will try that thanks!
