Hi–sorry, I’ve been meaning to get back you on this for some time. I did try the solution you suggested, and the problem is that when I go to edit the gallery in the “visual” mode, and I try to add images to the gallery, none of the images in my media library are accessible–it appears that my media library is empty. I even tried uploading the image again from that point since I couldn’t get it from my library, but when I do that, every image in my entire media library gets added to the gallery as well. That’s why I tried just editing the short code, but again, that doesn’t produce the desired result either.

Thanks for your reply. It doesn’t seem to work as described. Here’s what the current gallery shortcode looks like:

[gallery id="5113,5346,5476,5562,5651,5771,5857" size="medium" orderby="title"]

The image id for the one image I’d like to add is “4841”

If I’m understanding you correctly, the shortcode should be edited to look like this:

[gallery=”4841″ id=”5113,5346,5476,5562,5651,5771,5857″ size=”medium” orderby=”title”]

Is that correct? When I edit it as above, the new image (“4841”) does not appear in the gallery, although the original set of galleries are still merged correctly.

BTW, I am using WordPress 3.5.1

Much clearer. Great job! I really love the way it works–it saves me so much time, and the results are so much better than anything I was able to do before!

You had asked me to take a look a your instructions for combing galleries, and I have finally had time to take a look and also to format my page with the combined galleries (which is here: https://www.thomasmemoriallibrary.org/forthcoming-titles/)

I was puzzled at first by the directions, because it didn’t seem to indicate that you could combine multiple galleries and have them flow together, but I experimented and found that it did indeed work. I would suggest including something like the following in your instructions under the FAQ How do I add multiple galleries to the same page? after the first set of instructions.

“To combine the images from multiple galleries on the same page, use commas to separate the post/page IDs, and use standard WordPress gallery shortcodes to format their appearance. For example:

[gallery id=134, 135, 136 orderby="title" size="medium"]“

At least, this is what I did, and it works beautifully! I hope this is helpful. Thank you again for your terrific plugin!

You guys are terrific! Thanks so much for letting me know about this update. I will have more time to devote to our website next week, and I will play around with the multiple gallery options then. I will be very happy to provide you with feedback. Thank you so much!
