 * Hello, I seem to be missing the navigation controls (previous/next buttons) within
   my gallery. Users are having difficulty navigating through the images without
   these controls. Can you provide instructions on restoring or customizing the 
   gallery navigation for better usability? Your prompt assistance would be greatly
   appreciated!

 * Thank you for reaching out to us with your concern. It sounds like you’re referring
   to the lightbox navigation arrows that allow users to move between images in 
   your gallery. To address this issue, please follow these steps:
 * Go to the general gallery options located in the left side menu of your WordPress
   admin panel. Find and enable the compatibility gallery options. This can often
   resolve issues with navigation controls not appearing.
 * After making these changes, clear your browser’s cache to ensure that the updated
   settings take effect. You can usually do this through your browser’s settings
   menu under privacy or history options.
 * Finally, reload the page containing the gallery to check if the navigation arrows
   are now visible.
 * If you continue to experience issues, please don’t hesitate to reach out again.
   We’re here to help!
