    Hi,
    I’m having some issues with the gallery feature in the media uploader. I think this is a new feature with the newer versions of wordpress and the theme I have (which is custom) doesn’t know how to handle this content? Basically when I add a gallery to the site it just looks like a bunch of square thumbnails on the page strung together and clicking the image takes me to an unstyled post that just contains the image itself? I’m not sure how this feature is supposed to work or what steps I would need to take to update the theme to handle this type of content. Is there a tutorial or documentation or is there something else that is the issue with this?

    Kind of a hacky fix:

    Using the default WP theme (twentytwelve), first I went through the css of it and did a search for any styles with the word ‘gallery’ in it then copied those styles into my theme’s CSS. Then I did a find for the word ‘gallery’ throughout all the theme’s files and by doing that identified that the file image.php in my theme was out of date so I renamed it image-old.php and then just copied image.php from the default WP theme into my theme directory. Then went and looked at my site and that fixed about 80% of the issue, the rest was just personal preference in CSS styling and ultimately the behavior of the gallery using javascript which I played around with some plugins till I got what I wanted.
