Own Photo Galley not Working

[Francois Zietsman]

Hi, I use the Complete theme and created a normal page and added normal WordPress Gallery with Responsive Lightbox installed as I do not want to use the Theme’s default built in Gallery.

Now, when I visit the page where I created the gallery, it says “Sorry, photo gallery is empty.”

Somehow it’s conflicting with the built in Gallery or the theme is not allowing a normal gallery and forcing one to use the built in Gallery?

Kind Regards
Francois

Thanks Brad

I have send the Contact Form message with login details. As I mentioned, I want to use a normal WordPress gallery and not the Theme’s built in Portfolio.

Hi Brad

I don’t think you read my first post correctly or mis-understood my issue.

Thanks I saw it and I did check the Video, but it is exactly what I did NOT want to do. As I explained in my original post, is that I want to use a normal/usual WordPress gallery on the page. I don’t want to use the Theme’s built in Gallery/Portfolio.

Thanks
Francois

Hi There

Any feedback on this yet and where is the support on this issue? Any workaround or fix on the issue?

I want to use my own Gallery and NOT the theme’s built-in gallery for various reasons….

Hi Brad

Thanks for your effort but honestly I am not happy with the quick fix workaround as the normal WordPress Gallery is not working as it should. Although it shows a normal WordPress Gallery, it’s not functioning correctly.

1. The lightbox has no Next / Previous Buttons
2. It shows Undefined
3. No Social Links
4. No Thumbnails

If you want to see how the gallery should work, please look at This Link

Your themes are the first of many theme developers that I came across forcing one to basically use the theme’s built-in gallery option. I have done so many websites with lots of other themes that had built in Galleries but it never clashed with using one’s own gallery. It is as if your theme’s functions clashes with other galleries and one is basically forced to use your built-in Gallery.

Hi Brad

Please see the two links on examples of what the gallery’s lightbox should look like vs what it looks like on your theme fix…

Should Look Like
