    Hi Nick,

    Thanks for the feedback.

    To be honest, I had no idea that I was using https… but it would explain why it runs a bit slow. How would I change it to just http? I’m neither a designer nor developer, so don’t really have any experience with this.

    To create the gallery I actually used a plugin called Facebook Photo Fetcher. After it’s installed you just put a bit of html on the post and it pulls in all the images from the relevant Facebook album. It does freak out a bit with larger albums sometimes, though, which would explain why the images didn’t import correctly.

    When you import a Facebook album onto the site it normally opens the standard WordPress gallery, but I’ve switched it off as it doesn’t look nearly as nice as the PrettyPhoto one and the images view really small on mobile. Also, it did this weird thing where I would get the standard WordPress gallery with arrows between the images and then a second gallery with just the image I clicked on within the PrettyPhoto lightbox.

    And in regard to tooltips, I have to confess that I’m not aware of how to use them.

    Any suggestions you have to overcome these issues would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks

    Brendon

    Hi Devin,

    Unfortunately, what you’ve mentioned above doesn’t actually solve the problem I’m having.

    If you refer to the link in my previous post, the issue is that when I click on an image and it opens in the PrettyPhoto lightbox, it doesn’t show arrows to navigate left or right. If, however, I choose to use the native WordPress lightbox the arrows appear, but it looks ugly as hell and I still end up with the PrettyPhoto lightbox as well (effectively the image showing twice).

    What I want is a solution that shows the images embedded in the post as a continuos slideshow as if they were in a portfolio.

    Thanks for your help.

    Brendon
