 * Hello [@bexta](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bexta/) , 
   In order to edit
   the gallery settings of that short code, you will need to go back to Photo Gallery
   settings -> Generate Short code tab.Then select the short code you want to edit
   from the drop down and make your changes.Best Regards,Yasin

 * Hi Yasin
 * Thank you so much for your response. I have to apologise for not explaining my
   issue correctly. I didn’t know the correct terminology. I have now taken a screenshot
   in order to try to clarify. I can’t find a way in which to attach it though?
 * Thank you.
