    Hello,

    Is it possible to have one page display albums in a multi column format without affecting other pages? I would like to have the page I have shared have 3 columns. The page simply has [wppa type="album" album="35"][/wppa]

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Max cover width (Table I-D1) is a system global setting and can not be overruled by inline settings.

    What you can do is change the cover type; mcr types are multicover responsive, non-mcr do not generate columns.

    So, make the default covertype non-mcr (Table IV-D6) and overrule on the page where you want the multicolumn display as follows:

    [wppa_set name="wppa_cover_type" value="default-mcr"][wppa type="album" album="35"][wppa_set]
    

    Note 1: You do no longer need shortcode closing tags like `[/wwp]’ as long as you do not mix both ways on the same page and you do not want to put arbitrary text in it like ány comment’.

    I think I understand. I made a change in Table IX-A7 and -A8 to facilitate this. And it sort of works. I find unless I change all the album cover types, the display reverts back to default when you navigate back to the Album as opposed to Page.

    Also the inline change does not seem to propagate through to sub albums. Actually they do if I refresh the page.

    Yes, your conclusions are right.

    Changing the covertypes per album is the safest way; it depends on what is convenient for you, chaning the default and the other albums covertypes or the other way around.
