    Hello,

    running WP 4.3.1 and MesoColumn 1.6.4.1

    We have recently switched to your theme for our personnal travel blog. We love it but we are haveing an issue with the way the native WP gallery displays with the Jetpack tiled mosaic gallery feature. it doesn’t fill the space.

    I tried it with twentyfourteen and the gallery stretchs to fill the space. I recently installed Aesop and found that it comes with its own tiled mosaic gallery feature, it does fill the space with mesocolumn, it is odd that it is the last thing that happens in the load of the page but it does fill the space eventually.

    We really like the native gallery better, plus we have quite a few of them we would have to switch.

    I hope you can help, we love this theme

    try open functions.php and edit
    if ( !isset( $content_width ) ) { $content_width = 550; }
    to
    if ( !isset( $content_width ) ) { $content_width = 750; }

    Thank you Richie for your time,

    I edited the line as you said and didn’t do anything.

    from some reason the native gallery limited to 500px only. is there a setting on the mosaic gallery for it width?

    We got it!

    The code you gave me I tried in my child theme function.php which errored, then I put it in your parent theme functions and it did nothing.

    With your suggestion this morning I found this post:

    I put his code at 750px, (which only looks slightly different to me than yours, but I know nothing), anyway I put in the child theme and it worked, they look awesome now.

    Thank you so much for your help Richie.
