    Hi guys,

    First thanks for the nice theme, really liking the design and I’m just trying it out for a bit now.

    I have a little bit of ‘stupid’ question I feel like, because maybe its very obvious, but how do I insert a picture gallery to the gallery post type?

    Do I need to get some plugin and then I can display a gallery in that post type?
    What makes this post type a gallery post type? At least at first when I create a new post and select gallery I don’t see anything obvious to me..

    thanks for anyone who can bring some light into that for me.

    Hey MrSlartibartfast,

    I’ve checked out the theme demo, and it require the Jetpack free wordpress plugin.

    This is referenced on the following page, on the demo site:

    Hi bobbyduff,

    Wow, thanks a lot for the quick and helpful reply ??

    I somehow didn’t see this demo site yet, just the wordpress preview.
    So I’m going to check this out right away and hopefully have some fun creating a nice gallery in a bit.

    Cheers

    Hi again bobbyduff,

    Yes it has been resolved. I just wanted to test it before I’m marking it.

    just to clarify, any gallery plugin will work with this post type.
    I installed some other ones as well to test and they worked fine as well as the jetpack plugin. Just if someone prefers something smaller and not the whole jetpack, thats also working.

    Thanks again & have a nice day!
