 * I recently downloaded the plug-in “photo galleria” and I would like to start 
   using it in my website. Apparently I need to use short code to get it to work.
   I can’t find any instructions for short code that I can actually understand. 
   Can anyone tell me how to use it or direct me to a place that provides instructions.

 * You’ll probably get a better response in the plugin’s support forum:

 * they don’t provide support for this because it’s a free plug-in and they only
   provide paid support.

 * Hi Kehau,
 * WordPress adds “shortcode” to the main write panel when you click the “Insert
   Gallery” button after uploading images into the post. If you click the HTML tab
   on the write panel, you will see this:
 * [gallery]
 * That is shortcode. It creates the gallery. Here is more info:

 * Hope that helps!
