I have downloaded the wordpressembedded theme into my gallery theme directory and set the default theme in gallery 2 the wordpressembedded theme.
The problem is when I sign out as the admin. the theme goes back to the initial one, even when I log as a visitor it still doesn't pick up my selected theme.

What can i do please!

www.bukavuonline.com/wp-gallery.php

Otherwise the theme is wordpressembedded when I am logged as admin.

Thank you

Please make sure all your albums are using the default Gallery2 Theme and the WordpressEmbedded Gallery2 theme is correctly activated. Gallery2 themes are NOT user dependant, thus once active the Theme will remain active, however you can override the Gallery2 theme by album which I suspect is what your issue is..

Thank you ozgreg, the issue has been resolved, I appreciate.
The probleme remaining as you can see HERE the album is cut into two when displayed in the website, showing almost 50% of the window, what file do I need to edit so that it can fit into the website.

Thank you very much for your help.

Hiya Bukavu,

A heap of tips on how to increase the width of Gallery2 can be found on our old forum http://www.galleryembedded.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=2108 (which btw is going to be imported here soon)

Look at the section Create wpg2header.php as most likely that will help you out. It looks like your DIV CSS Element Gallery is the cause of some of the issues as it is badly out of alignment.. Most likely your WP theme wants to keep extra space for the dual sidebars thus why your G2 content is all screwy.

Try the Custom Header that will give you much better control. Also WPG2 has undergone a major revision change since your version, it looks like you are running 2.13, with 3.0 being the latest. Not that this will help your theme issues however you will find some additional functionality would be worth the upgrade..

In your case you need to add an element like this somewhere in your css...

#content.g2_column {
width:800px;
}

This should widen only your gallery container...

I think you guys solved a similar issue to mine.

http://www.thebreadcrumbtrail.org/gallery - you should be able to see the box surrounding the thumbnails fits the thumnails, and adjusts accordingly. It must be set at 100% somewhere I think.

I've looked in and played with every css file I can in Gallery2 and WPG2 folders, but I cannot seem to change this to a set width so it will fit within my post.

I then want to center the thumbnails.

For some reason on the backend, it is perfectly centred, and the box is much larger. I'm assuming it's using a different css file.

Could someone point me in the right direction for the css file I need to edit?

Thanks

James
