 * Hello,
    I have problem with gallery configuration. I have gallery with 3 categories.
   When page load first time I can see first tab in gallery menu with mix of the
   images from all categories. No sense for me. I need to turn off root category
   and make gallery load first category with images only from first gallery. How
   to configure you plugin to make it work this way ? Thanks! DM

 * I see what you mean. You can easily hide this main / parent gallery in menu settings.
   You can enable hide root option and after that you will have first tab loaded
   on page with first sub category in gallery list. All galleries section will be
   hide.
    Please try and let me know.
