Attachment Page Order and Formatting

    I have a couple galleries of scanned images on my site. I have the images link to their attachment pages but have a couple questions about this use.

    1) I reordered one of my galleries after first creating it but the page navigation “Previous Image / Next Image” still uses the original image order. How can I fix the page navigation to match the current image order? Do I need to delete and recreate the gallery?

    2) Is it possible to format the attachment page or is this a function of the theme? I’d like the image to be shown centered on the attachment page.

    Thanks

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    @dplittle – The simplest approach to correcting the first issue would be as you suspect: delete the current gallery and re-insert it with your preferred order.

    As to the second concern, you are also correct in that it is most likely going to be theme related although this is often easily customizable via additional CSS either via your theme or another method such as Jetpack’s custom CSS module.

    Now, it appears you are using the Twenty Fifteen theme which does not have a specific attachment template (see https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/basics/template-hierarchy/ for more details) which means you could just use custom CSS to center the images or you could look at creating a child-theme for even more options to make modifications to how the site looks (see https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/advanced-topics/child-themes/ for more details).

    Thanks Edward. I’ll just need to make sure to save off the descriptions first!

    I have been looking into Child Themes. My next project. Just wanted to get the site up and the info available to others. I’ll tweak later.
