Change gallery type just for Mobile devices

You will have to create media queries in your CSS that will assign different CSS rules based on the visitor’s screen size.

What plugin are you using for your gallery?

@hudsonvalleywebdesign

Thats sounds a bit out of my league but i will check it out a bit more. Thanks, any tips?

@steve Stern

I’m using the Lens theme, i’ll have a look and see what gallery plugin it is… I think it is whatever PixelGrade uses, i’m not sure how to find out, happy to check if you let me know how.

Thanks

It appears that the gallery is part of your theme. As you use a commercial theme/plugin and need support, please use their official support channel. We feel they are best equipped to support their products.

Commercial products are not supported in these forums. .

@steve Stern
Yeah i did contact them and they said they couldn’t help me, i thought here might be able to help point me in the direction of how set up different pages to be loaded depending on the device, which was my original idea, just lacking the execution part of it.

Thanks

Please do not use the @ notification on replies. Also, I’m not “@steve”, so your possibly sending email to someone else!

My preferred gallery is the basic gallery with Jetpack, enabling both “tiled galleries” and “carousel”.

Please note that we do not support commercial themes, so anything theme-related is off the table here.

Ok thanks, i didn’t know sorry.

If i am using jetpack for the gallery, how would i start to go about setting one type of gallery up for computers and a different one for devices. is that even a possibility?

Thanks again

No, that’s not a possibility without a bunch of coding, which brings us back to your theme (and we don’t go there).

Ignoring my theme, would the coding be CSS based, i have a decent standard knowledge so i can work it out, just need to know if CSS would be the right direction.

Thanks again for all your help

No it would be PHP and CSS based. If it was CSS we could help you without having knowledge of the theme.

Unless. Try this.

In the “Additional CSS” section of the dashboard add this:

@media screen and (max-width: 768px) {

    html #gallery-1 .gallery-item {
        width: auto;
    }
}

Ahhh ok thanks, looks like its time to hire someone better than me for this then. Thank you so much, for some reason i thought it would feasible for me to do it.

Thank you everyone for your help and advice.

Thanks @anevins i will try it now and let you know ??

@anevins thanks, that works %95 of the way, thank you so much, i think with that i can adjust going forward and work it out.

Can’t thank you enough was thinking it was going to turn into a nightmare.

??

Great, I think if your requirement was to change the size of thumbnails to make them larger on desktop then you would have a nightmare, as that would likely be a PHP change.
