 * Hi [@bcworkz](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bcworkz/) – The only shortcode
   I see in the HTML view of the classic gallery is
    <p>[gallery]</p> without any
   IDs. Maybe that’s the problem? That’s the output of the tumblr converter.
 * After the conversion, the HTML is:
    <ul class=”wp-block-gallery columns-3 is-
   cropped”> Also, without any IDs.
 * In the meantime, I duplicated the gallery before converting it to a block, so
   the converted (empty) Block Gallery and the original Classic Gallery are combined
   in one post. But that’s probably not really helpful?
    It’s here: [http://bernfred.dimjon.de/?p=17](http://bernfred.dimjon.de/?p=17)
 * Thanks a lot for your efforts, Michael

 * Hi [@bcworkz](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bcworkz/), thank you for your
   answer.
 * The link I attached in the previous post was the original gallery that was not
   yet converted. After conversion, a previous gallery post looks like this:
    [http://bernfred.dimjon.de/?p=8](http://bernfred.dimjon.de/?p=8)
 * The HTML code view is:
    <ul class=”wp-block-gallery columns-3 is-cropped”> but
   it’s empty, with no reference to the original images.
 * I’m really puzzled by this, as the gallery is recognized correctly before the
   conversion to blocks. The original HTML before conversion is:
    <div class=”gallery
   gallery-columns-3″>
 * Yes, not converting to blocks is of course an option, I still would like to do
   it if somehow possible, in order to use more advanced gallery blocks afterwords.
 * Thank you very much for your help and further ideas,
 *  Michael.
