    I think I have followed all the steps in the tutorial I can find. But my problem is that the Meow gallery appears but the image thumbnails are not clickable. The image I click does not open in any single image view like they do in the example galleries. Please help.

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hello,

    Are you using the Gutenberg Editor? How do you add a gallery? Did you notice the settings on the right in the Gutenberg Editor when you click on the gallery? You can pick there to where the media are linked to (attachments or the files).

    Thanks for quick reply :-). Gutenberg is only mentioned in your tutorial. There is no mentioning of Gutenberg in my wp-admin. Please advise.
    But my gallery is now clickable. I had to choose “Link to” Mediafile. But very primitive. Only a display of a jpeg-file. No arrows to step through images, no full screen, etc. Nothing of the fancy stuff I can see at your MEOW GALLERY page.
    I just started off and tried to do it simple.
    1. Transferred 5 images using your WP/LR Sync addon
    2. Created new page called Gallery and added it to the menu in the home page
    3. Added a block by clicking the + sign in the upper left and selected Meow gallery
    4. Hit Update
    5. After your advice selected link to Mediafile

    So I have now a clickable gallery but with none of the functionality shown in your website. Please advice!

    OK, Gutenberg is just a more modern page editor. There is nothing more there about controlling the functionallity of the MEOW Gallery.

    Oh, I see, you mean you would like a lightbox! 🙂

    In my examples, I am using the Meow Lightbox. Please give it a try.

    Exactly, thats what I wanted. Now it works! I didn’t know that’s what it is called. I thought that was part of the functionality of a Gallery.

    Great! Sorry, I thought it was obvious that a Lightbox was used. By the way, if you like those plugins, don’t hesitate to write a little review to help us 🙂 Cheers!

    Maybe you should make it clearer in your description what a Gallery is and what a LightBox is. As a newbe like me I did not even consider the possibility that a Gallery was not able to display individual pictures. I did see your bulletpoint about Lightbox not included, but I didn’t know what a Lightbox is, so I ignored it.
