    Hello,

    I’m updated to all latest versions.

    When I’m using the default WordPress gallery shortcode, no matter which (registered) thumbnail size I select (medium, large, square), it displays columns as if it was 80 pixels.

    I tried to deactivate all plugins without success… When I deactivate Enfold and switch my site to the theme Twenty Fifteen, the thumbnails / columns are back to the correct size.

    I am using a child theme with some customizations but nothing to my knowledge could interfere with this…

    Any idea ?

    Hi MBAM,

    I’m guessing the Enfold settings are overriding, though there are gallery elements in Enfold. Maybe you could try using those instead?

    Cheers!

    Thanks Rikard,

    I love to use the Enfold gallery shortcode everywhere… but unfortunately, in this case, I need to use the WordPress gallery shortcode because it is supported by another plugin I need to use (wp-greet, a plugin that sends ecards).

    I tried the wordpress gallery shortcode on another ENFOLD website with zero plugin (except WPML) and I have the exact same problem with gallery columns / thumbnails.

    Is there something I can do to fix this ?

    Thank you,

    Alex

    Hi!

    You can add this in the Quick CSS field:

    #top .gallery .gallery-item {
        margin: 1px 1px 0 0;
        width: auto;
        height: auto;
        padding: 0;
    }

    Regards,

    Hi there
    I have the same problem but Ismael’s CSS does not fix the problem, since width: auto overrides the native width which is dynamically set depending on the number of columns (“Thumbnail Grid” gallery type).
    Any advice on how to fix this?
    Of course I can (and will, for the time being) comment the culprit CSS lines in enfold/css/base.css (line 396)

    #top .gallery .gallery-item {
        height: 80px;
        margin: 1px 1px 0 0;
        padding: 0;
        width: 80px;
    }

    but it’s not a good fix since it will be back with each new theme update, and it may be missing in some other case.

    Am I mislunderstanding how it works or is this an actual issue you should try and solve?
    Thank you for your time.

    Hey!

    Do you really need to use the default gallery shortcode? Please use the theme’s gallery shortcode instead.

    Cheers!

    Hi
    I love to use the Avia builder, but shortcodes are not always easy to use. I mean, once you have set the shortcode options, if you need to change something, it might not be that easy to do it by editing the shortcode, so sometimes, you have to erase it all and start anew. Quite annoying.
    I’d love to use the Avia builder on every page, but there it seems I can’t. I need to use the ‘elegant’ automatic header (with title, category, featured image, etc) and if I’m not wrong, I CANNOT use this elegant header at the same time as the Avia builder. Too bad…

    Is it not the same when you use the default gallery shortcode? If you use the theme’s gallery element in the advance layout builder, you can re-edit it later on.

    Are you referring to the elegant blog styling? The styling is going to be applied on pages with the blog posts element.

    Hi

    I was comparing Enfold Shortcode to standard “Add Media” button which allows to create AND edit images or galleries. No shortcode then.

    Yes, I use Elegant blog styling. I like how it automatically generates the post category and post title in a cool display. Unfortunately, it is not when/if I use the Avia Builder instead of Default WP editor. I can understand why it is not automatically added (some people might not want it), but having the option to add it would have been cool.

    Thus, this is why I don’t use either gallery shortcode (not so user-friendly as WP default Add Media) nor the Avia builder gallery (doesn’t allow Elegant blog styling). Am I wrong somewhere?

    Hey!

    After you created the gallery or added an image by using the add media button, you won’t be able to edit it again just like the theme’s shortcode wand. You should use the advance layout builder then add the gallery element. Is there any reason why you can’t use the advance layout builder?

    The elegant style should work if you use the blog post element in the advance layout builder. Did you try it?

    Best regards,

    uuh, yes I am actually. Maybe we’re not speaking of the same thing. The WP “Add media” button allows to create AND edit images/galleries without shortcodes. Just good old easy access UI. Well, nevermind, this is no big deal.

    Is there any reason why you can’t use the advance layout builder?

    Yes. As I explained earlier, the advanced layout builder does not display the “elegant blog style” header on top of the post page. An option to allow it is what I would have loved.

    The elegant style should work if you use the blog post element in the advance layout builder. Did you try it?

    Of course I did. But I realise you refer to the main blog page where all posts excerpts are displayed. I am refering to the post itself. If you create a blog post and use Default Editor, the post page displays a nice header (post title, post category, separator, post date and sharing options). If you switch to Enfold Advanced Layout Editor, none of this is displayed (probably because the Builder aims to offer complete freedom of page building). Do you see it now?
    An option to keep some automatic elements with the advanced layout editor would have been sooo better.

    But well, from one thing to another, I see that this thread has mainly deflected from its first subject. Sorry for this, all this is intertwined somehow.

    Hey!

    Yeah. I see it now. My bad! This is one of the limitation of the of the advance layout builder. You will have to start from a blank canvas if you switch the post editor to the advance layout builder. Unfortunately, there is no available element for the elegant blog style. Please use the default editor. Sorry for the inconvenience.

    Ismael
