    Default Wordpress it s giving me headaches...

    Hi there girls!!
    I admit I can be a total dummie when it comes to websites and all that...
    I decided to have my own site so I could sell my cam shows, pics and videos there and the guy who did it for it, did it on wordpress....
    It seems everytime I wanna do something there I encounter some problem....
    Last nite i tried everything in order to insert a pic gallery on one of my pages and now i can only see 7 pics out of 30 more or less that i have there...
    The guy had family in the house so he couldn t try to help me... and he s never on line in the weekends...
    Anyways, anybody here that has a site on wordpress can tell me how the hell should i add the pics into a page? I know post it s easier and believe , i tried several different things and nothing worked....
    U think maybe there was an issue with the hosting site?? any ideas??
    If someone can tell me about an easy and simple way to add pics on PAGES, ( on posts i already know) pls let me know, I will appreciate it!

    Why don't you just build the gallery in some other format or on a different software, & link it through Wordpress?

    For example, Photoshop produces nice galleries like this one I made:
    http://kyleakilleen.com/pages/images...ant/index.html
    I've hyperlinked it to force the gallery to open in a new browser tab from:
    http://kyleakilleen.com/pages/galleries.php

    You can do the same type of gallery on the free online version of Photoshop. Just sign up for an Adobe account, upload the photos, then use the slideshow feature.
    http://www.photoshop.com/tools
    After you build the slideshow click on the "Share" button below & you can grab the URL to link to.

    The same thing can be done straight from the Photoshop you buy from Adobe, & then you upload all the photos & flash to your website server.

    You can also produce something similar from Photobucket, but they are pretty strict about the types of photos.

    ^^^ Thank you, I did all the design work on it. Websites can be expensive & I've particular. Plus, a lot of people don't realize that have a website which is readable by cell phones can make a huge difference.

    Try un-installing & re-installing the plugin if you can.

    As far as the gallery, that will depend on the method you use. If you use the first method I describe then you will have a hyperlink & probably want to set it to open the gallery in a new tab. If you want to have it appear to be on the same page you might look into using an iFrame. Watch this to get an idea of iFrames. I use them on my website & they are very helpful.
