I have Collected some Photos into a Portfolio but I can't restrict the size in that gallery?

Question

First of all I just wanted to say you have a great product. I am gurrently on day 5 of my trial but I will be joining at some point today regardless of the outcome of this question.

The issue is I have a gallery called Wallpapers which is hidden. I have then collected just a few of those pictures into a gallery called Portfolio which is public.

For the portfolio gallery I have tried to set the gallery settings to only allow a medium resolution image. This appears to work in the gallery view as it only shows small or medium down the right hand side. The problem comes if you then click on the picture and it opens in the shadowbox. For the size options at the top, all are displayed and all work.

Have I done something wrong and if so is there an easy fix?

Thanks & Regards,

John

Thanks for the post.

The problem is that your collected photos will inherit settings from the original gallery.

So, if you have set a MEDIUM resolution in the destination gallery - > but the original gallery is set to XL - the photos will be displayed in XL size.

You will need to change the size in the ORIGINAL gallery to MEDIUM.

I hope this helps! Please let us know if you have any more questions.

Take care,
