 * Since upgrading to v2.8 (and using Atahualpa theme), I can’t find how to add 
   a photo gallery to a post. I’m pretty new to WordPress but when doing this before
   I seem to remember it came up automatically when I uploaded a sequence of photos.
   Now I am only able to add individual photos to a post.
 * Can someone point me in the right direction? I have a feeling I’m missing something
   obvious.
 * Thanks, Andrew

 * Well, I’ve established that I need to use the [Gallery] shortcode, but I don’t
   know how to go about doing so. Can anyone give me some pointers?

 * When you add photos to a post using the insert media button, one of the tabs 
   under “Add an Image” is marked “Gallery”. THis contains all of the images associated
   with your post. At the bottom is the option to “Insert a gallery”. This enables
   the gallery and adds the [gallery] shortcode to your post.
