My image gallery doesn’t seem to be working. This is what I did.
I created a Gallery Page on the Top Menu. Then I created a gallery called Alfresco and added a Featured image,which put the alresco image under the heading of Gallery. Great, that’s what I want to see. But then I went back to the Alfresco gallery to add the images. I clicked on Add Images and selected Add Gallery. I chose the images that I wanted and clicked Create New Gallery and then clicked Link to Media File and then clicked Insert Gallery.
then Update page.
When I previewed gallery, nothing is showing
my site is http://www.drcbuilders.com.au
what am I doing wrong?

I am still trying to work out how to show my images in the gallery. When I look at the gallery page, all the photos are there in the gallery box that shows on the page. But I just can’t see them anywhere.
I just read this on one of your pages.

Gallery Page
You can add in gallery in page and post by uploading images from the image uploader then add in the shortcode for gallery.

Where do I get the shortcode for the gallery and where do I put it.

I need to get this info fairly fast, I am on the clock for this website.

Hello Sakin,
I am still trying everything to get the photo gallery working. I have created a gallery with images in it. I have finally read on another website not even connected with Catch Mustang that the shortcode is in the visual tab. OK I know now where to find it now and I am guessing that the shortcode will be pasted into the page that is called Gallery.
So I do this, still not working. I have been researching this one little problem that is stopping my near completed website from being complete for a whole day. Can you let me know what step I am not doing.

Thanking you in advance.

@senna: Always check in Theme Instruction when you use any theme. For Catch Mustang theme, see the theme instruction at http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/catch-mustang/

You can create Gallery page from “Gallery => Add New” in your WordPress Dashboard. Then upload the images or you can use the images which has been uploaded. Then you can add the gallery shortcode. See this for gallery http://en.support.wordpress.com/images/gallery/

Hi Sakin,
I had already read the post that you attached, thanks anyway.
my problem is that I don’t know a few things that are not explained in those instructions.
1. Do I have to create a page on my top menu called gallery first.

2. then when I create the gallery called Alfresco e.g. Do I create the gallery called Alfresco, update it, then attach a featured image, update and then add media and select add gallery and choose my images. I have got that far.
3.I do not know what to do with the shortcode. apart from see it in the visual editor. What do I have to do with it.

I am starting to think that I might have to reinstall the theme. the last time I had problems with the widgets I ended up installing WordPress then it worked. I have been looking and trying everything conceivable for two days.
Can you help me? I have read and reread everything that you have attached but it is just not working.

Is there anyone who can help me with my problem. I am at my wits end trying to figure out how to put the gallery onto my website. i am not seeing what everyone must be on their sites. Is there something else that I have to download to get it to work?
Please, please, can someone help me. My email address is [email protected]
I am desperate for help. I will accept advice from anyone who knows how to do this very simple thing. I have added galleries on other websites with no problem whatsover. Why is this so difficult?
