    thegreatgatzby-

    I just happened to look see this the day after you posted…

    I did figure it out about a month ago and should have posted it here at that time. In my theme’s style.css, I added:

    .gallery {
    margin: 0px;
    line-height: 0em;
    }

    .gallery-item {
    float: left;
    margin-top: 0px;
    text-align: center;
    }

    .gallery img {
    border: 0px;
    margin:0px;
    padding: 0px;
    }

    .gallery-caption {
    margin-left: 0px;
    }

    I believe that it “overrode” any conflicting CSS in my plugins (and everywhere else) and removed all spacing between thumbnails.

    Funny thing is — after I got it to work, I decided that I didn’t like it (for my thumbnails)! Hope it works for you. ??

    I’m assuming that there is no plugin that will work for me.

    But I don’t mind adding the weekly archives on my sidebar manually … I just don’t know enough about php to make week “38” direct users to Sept. 14-20, 2008 posts…

    Any ideas? Please…

    Thanks, TheSooFoo

    I have been looking thru all the plugins (for some time now) and can’t find one that changes monthly archives to weekly archives on the sidebar.

    There are quite a few plugins that change the archives one way or another, but if there is one that does what I need, I don’t see it…

    Does anyone know the actual name of the plugin(s) … or know of another way?

    Thanks… ??

    Okay, I’ve found the following info at https://media.wiley.com/assets/1531/35/BonusChapter.pdf

    4. You can change the order of appearance of the images in the gallery,
    as well as the markup (HTML tags or CSS selectors).

    ? captiontag: Change the markup that surrounds the image caption
    by altering the gallery short code to something like this:
    [gallery captiontag=”div”]. This places <div> .. </div>
    tags around the image caption. Or use [gallery captiontag=”
    p”] to place <p class=”gallery-caption”>…</p>
    tags around the image caption. The default markup for the captiontag
    option is dd.

    ? icontag: Change the markup around the icontag (thumbnail
    icon) of the image by altering the gallery short code to something
    like this: [gallery icontag=”p”]. It places <p
    class=”gallery-icon”>…</p> tags around each thumbnail
    icon. The default markup for icontag is dt.

    ? itemtag: Change the markup around the itemtag (each item) in
    the gallery by altering the gallery short code to something like
    this: [gallery itemtag=”span”]. This places <span
    class=”gallery-item”>…</span> tags around each item in
    the gallery. The default markup for the itemtag is dl.

    ? orderby: Change the order used to display the thumbnails in the
    gallery by altering the gallery short code to something like this:
    [gallery orderby=”menu_order ASC”]. The thumbnails are
    displayed in ascending menu order. Another parameter you can
    use here is ID_order ASC, which displays the thumbnails in
    ascending order according to their IDs.

    22 Discovering What’s New in WordPress 2.5
    Table BC-2 Gallery Short Codes
    Example Output

    [gallery columns=”4” A four-column gallery containing
    size=”medium”] medium-sized images.

    [gallery columns=”10” A ten-column gallery containing
    id=”215” size=”thumbnail”] thumbnail images pulled from the blog
    post with the ID of 215.

    [gallery captiontag=”p” A three-column (default) gallery where
    icontag=”span”] each image is surrounded by
    <span>…</span> tags.

    You can define the style of the span tags in your CSS stylesheet if you have a little knowledge of CSS. For example:

    span.gallery-icon img {
    padding: 3px;
    background: white;
    border: 1px solid black;
    margin: 0 5px;
    }

    Placing this CSS in the stylesheet of your active theme automatically inserts a one-pixel black border around each thumbnail, with three pixels of padding and a white background. The left and right margins are five pixels in width, creating nice spacing between images in the gallery.

    …and it does KIND OF work. If I add [gallery itemtag=”span”], it does place <span class=”gallery-item”> … </span> tags around each item/image in the gallery…

    But when I attempt to use CSS (as described above), nothing changes. Nothing!

    Does ANYONE know what I’m doing wrong? I’m beyond desperate!!!

    Does anyone know how to adjust the number of column (and the margins) for WP Galleries when the above doesn’t work?

    Thread Starter transat99

    (@transat99)

    Okay, I give!

    I’ve tried changing columns in wp-includes/media.php to:

    ‘columns’ => 4,

    …but I’m still getting 3 columns. At the moment my thumbnails are 100px wide so I’m just making sure this will work before I adjust them down to 90px.

    I’ve also changed:

    .gallery-item {
    float: left;
    margin-top: 0px;
    text-align: center;
    width: {$itemwidth}%;
    }

    .gallery img {
    border: 0px solid #cfcfcf;
    }

    …and I’m getting lots of margin (on all sides). I’ve tried adding “margin: 0px;” below “margin-top” with no results as well…

    Anyone have any ideas?
