 * Hi. There is no error. You can use the **options** attribute on the gallery shortcode(
   view in text mode) to set the paused state:
 * `[gallery gss="1" ids="1,2,3" options="paused=false"]`
 * You can additionally set the **timeout** (slide transition time) option in milliseconds(
   default = 4000) like so:
 * `[gallery gss="1" ids="1,2,3" options="paused=false&timeout=6000"]`
 * Please note that I am no longer able to provide support in these forums. Thanks.
