    Hi,

    Ok, let’s be honest here: I’m pretty sure this plugin does exactly what I’d like to, but I have no clue how ^^
    So here is my issue: since I’ve changed theme recently, my native WP galleries look all messed up on my site, each thumbnail has a different height (same width, though). Anyhow I’d like to avoid having to care about image resizing every time I create a gallery…
    The issues I’m facing since I’ve activated this plugin are:
    – I don’t know why the galleries are taking only half the page (i.e. https://atelier-de-styliste.com/emploi-du-temps-2/);
    – I’d like my pictures to be opened in a lightbox, no matter which one, anything would be better than the current behaviour!
    – I’d rather have the thumbnails aligned than in a masonry style, but I could survive if it isn’t possible to change this.

    I haven’t really changed the settings so far, I don’t really know what to do actually ??

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Simply put, your theme seems to be taking over all of Photonic. Your theme might be defining its own version of the gallery shortcode, and that might be conflicting with Photonic. Try the very first option, Photonic → Settings → Generic Options → Generic Settings → Custom Shortcode. Define something else here that you can use instead of the gallery shortcode.

    Hi Sayontan,

    Ok then, I get it. Unfortunately it won’t work for me as the person who creates and publishes the galleries is all but a geek and doesn’t know (nor want to know…) what a shortcode is. I guess I’ll have to deactivate the plugin and ask for some support from the theme author then.

    Thanks for your help anyway!

    Best,

    Actually this isn’t difficult (I hope). If you follow the instructions as per the link above, then use the shortcode insertion script (Add Media → Photonic), you should be able to add galleries without knowledge of the shortcode. My only concern is, your theme might be overriding the shortcode insertion as well, in which case you might again end up with conflicts.
