    I am using the default Word Press gallery linking to the image file (not attachment page). I wish to change the link address from the original file to the large versions created by Word Press when uploading. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advanced.

    Hello Kevin. I've been struggling with EXACTLY the same thing for about 8 hours today. I don't think the gallery framework includes this feature. However, I have found a solution:

    The PhotoJAR plugin extends the gallery framework, giving it a "constrain full size images" option. You will also need to set the "Gallary Links to:" and "Image Links to:" options to "Javascript viewer", which will point those links to a cashed, resampled image the plugin creates in the background.

    You can then optionally select the "type" of javascript viewer. Options include "none" (a simple link to the cashed resampled image) to fancy stuff like lightroom if you have that installed.

    Hope this helps. Hope you don't have to invest the time I did.

    oliviameiring, I just tried it and it was broken - it would eat the gallery specified by the [gallery] tag.
