 * Hi this is one of the most powerful plugins I have ever used and stumbled upon
   it looking for something else… anyway…
 * the gallery option just blew me away as it allows my client to post multiple 
   images from one post page, but what i need is some way to have 2 separate galleries
   on one post.
 * my client needs to add this from the same post so is there any way to either 
   add another gallery on the same post or separate them by category…
 * maybe there’s some code to add in function file or something
 * any help would be appreciated

 * Currently, multiple gallery fields are not supported. I use the gallery field
   quite a lot and have been improving it, but the main code is a couple years old
   and is somewhat limited. It could use an overall rewrite/update, but at the moment
   I don’t have the time to write and test it thoroughly. So, it might take a while
   to realize mutliple galleries in one post.
 * An alternative might be:
    - Create a post type called `gallery` to separately manage galleries (one gallery
      field per post).
    - Then use something like Advanced Custom Fields to create a custom select field,
      that would allow posts to select one or more galleries from that post type.

 * Thanks for you response, but fortunately built into my theme was ACF (Advance
   Custom Fields Pro) and in there it has a built in Gallery so using that and your
   wonderful plugin has enabled me to create something for my client in 1 day where
   I thought it would have taken me a week
 * So thanks!!
