Post Format – Gallery

The Pine’s gallery post format allows for creation of a custom gallery or for using a shortcode to pull in a gallery from plugins like NextGEN Gallery or Soliloquy1. Each option will display above the post content on the archive page and single post page.

Creating a Custom Gallery

  1. From the post editor screen select Gallery from the Format metabox.
  2. A new Post Format – Gallery metabox will display below the title.
  3. From the Custom Gallery or Shortcode dropdown select Custom Gallery.
  4. Select Add to Gallery and select any images you would like to display in the gallery.
  5. This will return the images in a slideshow above the post content on both archive and single pages.

Using a Gallery Shortcode

  1. From the post editor screen select Gallery from the Format metabox.
  2. A new Post Format – Gallery metabox will display below the title.
  3. From the Custom Gallery or Shortcode dropdown select Shortcode.
  4. Insert the shortcode for your desired gallery.
  5. All possible plugins have not been tested.
