 * Is there any way to add something to the shortcode for a gallery that will have
   it display all the photos from a specific category, automatically?
 * This is what I have now:
    [gallery link="file" type="square" ids="2309,2308,2307,2306,2305"]
   but, ideally, the gallery would fill with the photos from a specific category,
   rather than adding ID’s individually.
 * Any ideas?

 * Hello [@adksherpa](https://wordpress.org/support/users/adksherpa/),
 * Right now – no. This functionality will be included to one of the next updates.
