    Wow… very cool. I have to say. You offered for me to test. All I can say is be grateful that you figured it out first. I’ve never been successful in my few attempts at Javascript. Congratulations. I’m downloading now.

    Thanks for the tips for adjusting the cover photo size.

    I’ll let you know if I come up with something useful.

    I think for now, we can consider this thread resolved, though.

    I said it before, but I really like this tool. Thanks for your help!

    No, I haven’t changed the .css.

    1) If that is the case, I would like to adjust the class for the cover photo to allow for full-size image. Having full size thumbnails on all pages is not an option.
    Can you help me understand the CSS structure for the cover photo so that I may change it? I noticed it is nested inside of several divs.
    Which ones are OK to change, which ones are not?

    2 & 3) I feel like the issue has to do with loading size. Do you have a preloader alerady in the plugin? If not, I am a junior coder. I have added pre-loading before, but in much simpler sites. Can you give me instruction?

    You’re awesome! Thanks! I mean, I did see this in the Codex pages, but there was Soooo much information about other stuff that it felt overwhelming. Thanks for helping me out!

    Cool. I saw it said in the codex about this!

    But what about specifying the length of the Excerpt. I think default is 55 words or something.

    That’s a good suggestion to do it manually, but I have more than 30 posts and am adding new ones every couple of weeks. I’d like an automated solution.

    Thanks! I have a subscription to Gravity Forms (but I think it’s just about to run out). I actually ended up installing a plugin that offers registration third-party called ‘HeyPublisher’ designed for Online Mag submissions.

    It was a server problem. Once I connected to a stronger connection, my changes appeared.

    By the way…
    I already have the_excerpt referenced in my loop as:

    <div class="entry-content">
    		<?php the_excerpt( __( 'Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&rarr;</span>' ) ); ?>
    		<?php wp_link_pages( array( 'before' => '<div class="page-links">' . __( 'Pages:' ), 'after' => '</div>' ) ); ?>
    	</div><!-- .entry-content -->

    I already found out from that reference page (as out of date as it may be) that “the_excerpt” removes all tags – which is why my “Continue reading” tag isn’t showing up.

    I really can’t read the functions.php

    The one section that references excerpts doesn’t have the […] default tag anywhere inside of it.

    Thanks… I ended up re-installing from a backup.

    Cool… Gonna set a different site to run as a multi-site, then map the two new projects to their domain names.

    Thanks for the insight, guys!

    Ha! Thanks Paul. Well, never worry about giving me Too Much information! The more the merrier… It also helps me think about possible organization for the future. I have several projects coming up that I might want to run a multi-site for given this info. Maybe this current project isn’t the one to use it for, though.

    And you’re right, I was thinking about the folder structure from my cPanel. When I used to work on HTML sites, we always referred to them as “subdirectory”, and anything that happened after the slash in a URL as a “subdomain.”

    And you know, it’s been a while since I messed with my DNS settings, so just to confirm, it’ll still give me the permalink name, i.e. “https://domain-name2.com/post-1&#8221; so long as I set my DNS and WordPress settings correctly?

    Hey Mike Epstein… I have installed WordPress MU Domain Mapping.

    I have it in the controls of the main site. I thought that was the point of a multi-site. If I put the MU Domain Mapper in the root site, it should be able to Map my sub-folders, right? …Unless I’m missing the point and there’s something I have to “DO” other than install it.

    A little more information would be appreciated ??

    And Paul, thank you, but I think you are talking about a different issue than I am concerned with. To be honest, I don’t think it matters what the databases are called as long as what the public sees are the web addresses I have chosen for them.

    I’m guessing you’re talking about databases because of my question about migrating my sub-domains into the root multi-site?

    Are you trying to say that to achieve what I want I Necessarily have to migrate my current sub-domains’ wp-content from their sub-folders into the root site?

    Is that why you’re bringing up the databases? Please advise.

    Well, that’s essentially what I was trying to figure out how to do.
    I mean override the gallery shortcode.

    Again, I’m new at this but I need three things to get it to look and act the way I want:
    1. CSS (I can easily add custom CSS in a child theme, no problem)
    2. Specialized javascript (thanks to your suggestion, I’d just call it in the head before the other link to the javascript)
    3. The php output that defines what the shortcode will produce

    It’s the third that I don’t know how to control. Where do I overwrite the shortcode handler?
