Wow. Wow. Wow.
They BROKE it in WordPress 6.1 in November 2022. I told you about it right away.
Then there was a PARTIAL fix. Not great, but it was better than nothing.
Now, with WordPress 6.2, it seems to be fixed. All my galleries appear to be AGAIN appearing as they should. I need to do more checking.
But, at first blush it seems like a FIX!

I do not, in any way, want to appear insensitive (let alone crass), but ‘WOW’. 37. Nearly 1/2 my age. Died in his sleep — on his wedding night. (Yes, my adoptive mother died in her sleep, at 62 — & coincidently, it was after a big party in her honor attended by upwards of 300 people).
I hope we are told, in time, as to what caused this. Yes, heart failure — & then one has to wonder if physical exertion (wink, wink, nudge, nudge) was a factor. But, alas, these days one cannot also rule out drugs. Shame. Of the two, dying from too much sex would definitely be better.
Well, I am sobered. Wow. I guess I have been very lucky. SMILE. Enough said.
I do NOT want to disrespect this poor guy. What a way to go.

Click to ENLARGE.
This is only the start. It is far from over. More lights will go up around the windows. Then she will do the steps & the trees. Then I help her put up the lasers. We have 4 right now. I invariably get a new laser — the latest on the market each year. So, we might have more.
This is ALL Teischan’s work. She spent 2-hours on Sunday putting these up. For the last 4-years, since she was 12, she has INSISTED that she do all the lights on her own. I just lay out the initial 2 outlet ‘taps’. She takes the power off those. We now have some extension cords buried in the ground (& under the walkway). That makes things slightly easier. I suspect we will see the next installment of lights this coming weekend.
I will record the progress, photographically, for you. SMILE.

I visited the ‘WordPress Support Forums‘ last week to see if this annoying bug had been fixed. It appeared that it was still OPEN though there was a ‘problem ticket‘ against it, i.e., with luck it would get fixed in a future release (as it MUST). I also found the above fix.
I have never, in my life, used CSS, let alone Custom CSS. But, it looked easy enough. So, I did a quick Google to see how to add Custom CSS to a WordPress site. It looked easy. Just go to APPEARANCE (in the WP menu) … click on it & you get the ‘Additional CSS’ option (as I show in the 2nd figure).
The fix is only PARTIAL.
It ONLY works up to 3 images –> i.e., 3 images side-by-side. After that, like with my 6 images, it becomes a LONG, thin strip. But, you can scroll through the images. You should have noticed I have been using this with my daily, “Anura’s Picture Of The Day + 6 Others,” posts.
Just trying to help. Try it out. Not difficult.

I got the notification that ‘Hostgator‘ (per my settings) had automatically UPDATED me to ‘WordPress 6.1.1‘. I was kind of excited. Was hoping that it would fix the ‘Image Gallery’ problem.
It does NOT!
