# Version 3+: Sorting and inserting multiple galleries

 * I’ve just downloaded version 3.0.1. The new interace is slicker, but now inserting
   multiple galleries is a real chore. I have 82 galleries in my front page, and
   I have to select them one by one, and have to page down and select them which
   is painfully slow.
    Also, when I go to the sorting page, the photos don’t load.
 * Right now, I’m using the text function to create and manipulate the gallery, 
   otherwise it’s unworkeable.
 * Please help!
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fversion-3-sorting-and-inserting-multiple-galleries%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * [@frednat](https://wordpress.org/support/users/frednat/) – Thanks for the report
   and sorry for any issues.
 * While the design/appearance of the Insert Gallery Window is different, the functionality
   should be the same. For example, the way in which you select and insert galleries
   on a page should feel nearly exactly the same. Can you clarify what you were 
   doing differently that you can’t do now? A screenshot might be helpful to understand.
 * For example, if you are inserting each gallery separately (sounds like you are),
   then you’d need to click the Add Gallery button for each. That’s the same now
   as before. If you are inserting them as one gallery, you’d have to select them
   all in the Gallery drop down inside the Insert Gallery Window, but that should
   also be the same.
 * I should also add that if you already had 82 galleries on your front page, those
   should all be there.
 * –
 * On sorting, that behavior should also be exactly the same. If you are not seeing
   the images, I’m wondering if there is some javascript error that’s breaking JS
   on your page. Is there a chance you could take a screenshot of your Javascript
   console. While looking at the sort page, just go to View > Developer > Javascript
   console in Chrome (or the equivalent in Safari/FF), and grab a screenshot. That
   will tell us if you have errors there.
 * As an example, that screenshot looks like this for me: [https://monosnap.com/file/LkhAj3kZDofllidfaRW8hNoRttrDlU](https://monosnap.com/file/LkhAj3kZDofllidfaRW8hNoRttrDlU)

 * [@edanzer](https://wordpress.org/support/users/edanzer/), thanks very much for
   the swift reply. I’ve loaded a simple test gallery on a test page with 7 galleries.
   I misdiagnosed my problem: the problem I’m getting is that it doesn’t seem to
   remember that I’ve selected galleries _when I come back to edit the gallery_.

   It loads fine when I load the page. I can see the text version fine, it looks
   like this:
 * [ngg_images source=”galleries” container_ids=”17,18,19,20,21,22,23″ display_type
   =”photocrati-nextgen_pro_masonry” size=”180″ padding=”10″ display_type_view=”
   default” ngg_triggers_display=”always” captions_enabled=”0″ captions_display_sharing
   =”1″ captions_display_title=”1″ captions_display_description=”1″ captions_animation
   =”slideup” order_by=”sortorder” order_direction=”ASC” returns=”included” maximum_entity_count
   =”500″]
 * However when I click on the pencil icon to edit, none of the galleries are in
   there anymore: there’s only the first gallery.
 * I’ve captured a video of what’s happening, let me know if you need some console
   screenshots.

 * And microsoft edge. It always seems to remember the first gallery in the list
   but not any others.

 * Hi [@frednat](https://wordpress.org/support/users/frednat/)!
 * I’m wondering if you could let us know the current version of NextGen Gallery.
   
   We recently have a major update.
 * Could you please try to re-insert some galleries in a testing page and check 
   if is solved?
 * Feel free to write us back!
