The slider…

    I know this one has been asked before but the suggested fix was no good because the plugin (frontpage category filter) doesn’t work with the theme. It renders all posts to blank pages when activated, no matter what the settings are.

    So my question is – How can I keep the same five posts in the slider and not have anything new that I add bump stuff off there?

    Second question – anyone able to get the built in gallery function to work yet, as it doesn’t appear to work with this theme (see below)?

    Doh.. solved my own problem. I used the plugin ‘ultimate category excluder’ instead and that one works.

    Any help with the gallery function would still be welcome though

    Can you please elaborate on the gallery issue? There’s nothing below “see below”.

    Sorry I meant a post below this one (another topic)

    I tried to use the ‘create gallery’ option in a standard post, rather than using the setup I have been using, but it didn’t work.

    Thumbnails would post but clicking them would either take me to ‘page not found’ or I’d get an image embedded in its own page. The images wouldn’t open in the lightbox.

    Also, setting up a featured image for the slider made that image appear in the post itself, above the thumbnails.

    I looked around online for solutions and tried deleting my images, deleting my posts, reuploading images to new posts and nothing worked.

    I’m probably doing something very simple wrong but I don’t know what. I followed setting up a gallery from the wordpress tutorial to the letter.

    A simple (?) few lines of code to reverse the order of thumbnails would be enough for me incidentally. I don’t need to be able to do anything fancy with them, just have them display in order of newest first.

    If you delete this line in the function minimatica_post_gallery() it will reverse the order of the thumbnails:

    $attachments = array_reverse( $attachments );

    That is fantastically simple and works perfectly. Thank you for solving this long standing bugbear of mine!
