Google Photos Albums

1) All of the albums are not showing up. Is there a way to get them to show up? Find My Albums does dow them all.

Google Photos returns a maximum of 50 albums at a time. If you want to show more, you can add a parameter, more="Load More". That will show a button at the bottom, which you can click to show more albums. This button will continue to be shown till you exhaust your albums.

2) When I click on an album, is there a way to get it to show thumbnails of the pictures of the album instead of scrolling through each of the photos in the album?

You can add a parameter popup="show". This will show an interim overlaid screen with the photos in your album. You can then click on the photos to open the lightbox. I see that some of your albums have more than 100 photos (Google returns a maximum of 100 photos in one shot). To show the extras, you can add photo_more="Load More". That will show a button in your overlay.

So your eventual shortcode becomes:
[gallery type='google' view='albums' access='all' crop_thumb='crop' columns='auto' main_size='1600' thumb_size='150' popup='hide' layout='square' more="Load More" popup="show" photo_more="Load More"]

Hi — I tried to buy you some coffee, but the PayPal link generates an error.

Don’t worry about it – a happy review is a good substitute.

Out of curiosity, what type of error are you getting on PayPal? I recently changed something on PayPal; I wonder if I broke the button in the process.
