    Hello @skalanter

    ,,1. Did you test in a fresh installation? If not, Please install a fresh installation and re-test the issue.”
    How do you mean to test and install fresh installation? Where to install?

    I did number 2 and number 3 you told me, and guess what, number three got something interesting find. I disabled as you suggested to me everything, and enabled one by one plugin. And guess what was the problem, OCEAN EXTRA ITSELF! Check this video as proof. https://drive.google.com/file/d/12l5hUtvXdntTcTu70IHVeEwhr6XCg8Ym/view?usp=sharing It is deactivated, and when I click on the image it opens itself as it should. Then I activate Ocean Extra, purge all, when click again on that image the lightbox opens even if it should not, and I can scroll images left/right. Then I again disable Ocean Extra, purge all, click on the same image again, it again opens itself as an attachment as it should. Lightbox is forcefully disabled and I cannot make it enabled, so regardless that all those gallery posts are set as link to media file, they should open in an attachment. But Ocean Extra makes them open in lightbox. Lighbox in performance is disabled no matter what, like you pointed out must be some error.

    Now, I got an interesting find! I checked all gallery posts and I have tons of them. From what I saw only older galleries from 2020 and 2021 Ocean Extra opens in Lightbox, while newer from 2022 it does not. It respects that the gallery is disabled. Here you can check this theory, https://tropicalislands.net/category/gallery/page/4/ all galleries after June 6, 2021 respect this setting (July 21 is the next), while that one from June 6 and all earlier always show lightbox on enabled Ocean Extra. The only exception is this gallery which you already saw https://tropicalislands.net/manuhangi-atoll-gallery/ it shows lightbox even Ocean Extra is disabled, but I will deal with it, either delete it and make a new or something.

    @skalanter Hello!
    And here is my video, I am telling you this is possible and is happening since the last update. I recorded it with phone, you will see that the lightbox is disabled, I enable it, refresh the page and it is disabled again, then you will see Manuhangi Atoll gallery, lightbox appears there even if it should not, and when I click on edit, it is set to media file. Then you will see Isla Di yerba Gallery, when I click on it, just one image appears as it should. When I click on edit, it is also set on media file.
    Here is the video https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Yf5cLj2Qwt9E_YQuEfm_TLG1iWlSxgkC/view?usp=sharing
    I cannot reproduce this because I did not produced it at first place! I did not do anything, just updated everything hat needed to be pdated, wordpress, OceanWp theme and few other plugins. But when I disabled all plugins it also was like that. Tell me, what specific settings do you need to see? By the way this bug appears in some old posts, new posts I make respect settings it seems. And no, the cache got cleared multiple times, we even contacted our host and server to be cleared.

    @skalanter Hello Sir! I know how to set that as I am doing this for years, and that is the problem after the update. Those posts have literally the same settings, their galleries are set to media file. https://i21.servimg.com/u/f21/11/75/26/39/213.png And in some posts it works in some do not, but it is always set on media file.
    And I am telling you I am not using blocks, and never did. I am using the same style as I have been using for the last 4 years. See how my writing editor looks like https://i21.servimg.com/u/f21/11/75/26/39/310.png
    But I found something accidentally after days of testings: My lighbox is disabled always in settings. In Customize > General Options > Performance > Lightbox. It is always disabled, I enable it, publish and when refresh page it is again disabled. So that is the problem, it is disabled and I cannot enable it, and even it is disabled in some posts it is enabled. And that is big problem.

    Hello @skalanter
    Can you please check those two links for me and tell me what happens after you click on image inside gallery?
    this one https://tropicalislands.net/isla-di-yerba-gallery/
    and this one https://tropicalislands.net/manuhangi-atoll-gallery/
    When you click on any image in the first gallery, just that image should enlarge, and when you click on any image in the second gallery, that lightbox/image viewer should appear so you can list them left/right. Is that so for you as well?

    @skalanter its definitively a theme problem. Default lightbox appears in some posts even if it is disabled in options, and I even used .css code to disable it. I installed LiteSpeed Catche plugin to purge all, and it did not work, I think we cleared a cacthe from the server. Then I tested, I enabled Responsible Lightnox Gallery plugin I used again, it loads twice, both plugin and regular lightbox. Ok, then I switched theme to Astra, and it worked fine, just plugin lightbox appears. I switched back to OceanWP again, and again I got two lighboxes appearing, even if default one is disabled.

    Hello @shahin the situation looks little better now.
    1. – I put you code and it seems to work, menu is in the first line even in dashboard, which used to make two lines there. I did not test yet in other devices. BUT! I finally accidentally found out the location of those settings. It is not in Customizing > Header > Menu > Left/Right Padding(px) as you told (even Bard AI could not tell me real location), it is now in Customizing > Header > General and scroll down and you will see Menu section. And somehow I accidentally saw that. Nevermind, your solutions seems better.

    2.1 – I tested it, seems as theme problem. I disabled it and used some wordpress theme, and my gallery in tested post worked fine, when I switched back to OceanWP theme I am using, gallery lightbox duplicated. I did it twice for any case.

    2.2 – I am not using blocks or widgets, I do not have problem with that. Just those issues I explained, problems with menu resizing (which seems fixed now), duplicating gallery viewers (in some posts default wp lighbox is not disabled so it loads two of them) and those posts containing galleries in weird sizes and positions (which is now half fixed).
    Let me tell you how I use gallery. When we started blog 4 years ago, we did not have folders there for galleries, just one main media folder. As I am writing about tropical islands, each island must have its own folder for its own gallery in post, otherwice I cannot know which beach/jungle/whatever belongs to which island. They must have their own separation for that purpose. SO we pain plugin named FileBird to make folders inside dashboard to store separated images there. I have around 8000 files there, almost all images, and tons of folders now. When I make post, I insert Image, create gallery and add images from folder itself! So my gallery is not gallery, it is not post, it is old-fashioned post containing images created as single gallery so viewer can popup once you click on it. And again, I do not have blocks, widgets or whatever they created meanwhile after beginning of 2020, I do not insert pre-defined gallery or attach it, I create it in post directly and store images in folders in media in Dahsboard. So this was the problem that this viewer/lightbox which is disabled now appears on some post behind my plugin lightbox, loading it twice! And you have to close it twice. That must not happen.

    3. – I inserted your code and now all edit buttons and dates and all of that are as supposed to the right side. But still, some posts are moved away from the left side/margin (like someone pressed tab button). Still that is not such issue, much better now.
    Regarding catche, I clear it daily, sometimes even few times per day with that Autoptimize. I just disabled it and nothing happened. Then must be some issue with server catche, I do not know. And no, I am not using Elementor. Should I?

    Shahin! Hello Sir, thank you for reaching me quickly!

    I honestly cannot remember what was the last version I was before update, but I did not work on a blog for a few months, 3 or 4 due to my job, then I updated both wordpress and oceanWP, and since then I have those issues. Can I see somewhere that in dahsboard?
    And regarding your points:
    1. – I do not have that option in Customize > Header > Menu > there are no paddings there just colors of links. The only one settings is Width (px) under dropdown styling. Here are the options I have there

    2.1 – Lightbox is already disabled but it appears randomly on some posts that is the problem. Customize > General Options > Performance > ,,Lightbox This script enables you to overlay your images on the current page, used for the gallerie, single product and content images.” That is disabled. Maybe I should disable that plugin ,,Responsive Lightbox & Gallery” after all to use stock WordPress one.

    2.2 – Excuse me, what do you mean with that I did not understand it? I am not using blocks, that is new invention, I do not like it and never used it, in fact I am writing now in this and have difficulties. I am writing in old fashioned way in my blog like I wrote 4 years ago, and even then I had to install that classic editor to look more like in forums or ms word. So, this plugin you suggested, what would it do in my case?

    3 – Sorry sir, my bad, I should use a screenshot to explain this situation better. This is what I meant https://i21.servimg.com/u/f21/11/75/26/39/115.png as you can see, red circle are my Edit button which was in the same place anywhere, pink circle is the date which now varies, it was also in the same place in each post, and that blue line I draw manually is how some posts moved to the left. And as you saw already some categories like this have no such issue like this https://tropicalislands.net/category/tropical-island-regions/pacific-region/fiji/ everything is in place, but seems that gallery posts are out of margins after the update.

    Also, regarding the catche, I have Autoptimize plugin which I used for years, did not have issues with that. And about my own catche in browser, but this issues happened in another computers I tested, lap top precisely, it is not only for my own case locally, seems inside theme or something.

    Shanin, Hello man. Nice to see you. I did not forget about it, wanted to stop by and post a comment as some time passes, to check out how it work.
    First, that Responsive Lightbox plugin is awesome! Look how this works https://tropicalislands.net/nanukulevu-island-gallery/ it is currently set at TosRUs, slide, without auto slide show. But after the update there is issue. When I scroll album left right, there is X mark to close it. But it does not close album, it switches to old builtin album you just updated. Then I close it to close albums. Basically it opens two albums in same time, while built-in album is in background. You close plugin album, then original one remains. But! When you press Esc on keyboard, it closes album immediatelly as supposed.
    At our second blog, we did not install this plugin, and after update we got built in lightbox back as before. However, there is one visual issue to address. If you see this https://horrorvalley.com/old-site-gallery/ you will notice that there is no X mark on many images. That X mark for the closing gallery. Sometimes it is present, sometimes not. Must be related to resolution or something like that. At least it is for me like that. But that is nothing, just a silly thing. Maybe it is not worth of mentioning it. With that plugin you gave us, in tropical site, mark X is always present. However, like I adressed, I found bug there on X mark to close gallery, but original is opened then, so I have twice to close it, or just press Esc to close both of them.

    Kelly, try to Add new post, then click on ,,Add Media”, there you wont see custom folders. I still do not. I see them only on edit gallery, I have to insert any image into gallery, add it into post and click edit, then I see my custom folders. This is workaround.
    I have folders in media, I created them, but I do not have them in ,,Add Media” in post creation itself, but I do have them normally in cpanel and edit gallery option.
    EDIT:
    Kelly, here is screenshot https://i21.servimg.com/u/f21/11/75/26/39/bug10.png

    We just bought plugin regardless it is not working properly here. It will be fixed. I still can work by ,,workaround” with it.

    Kelly greetings again.
    We changed theme, problems still exist.
    We have newest wordpress version 5.4.

    How do you mean ,,resize screen”? You mean zooming in firefox? It does not work either. When I zoom screen out I still cannot see folders.
    For now, I have to exploit bug, so when I want to add images from folder into gallery, I have to create gallery with any image, posting it, then click on edit gallery to make folders show. For some reason they show only on edit.

    Hello Kelly, I meant on this report https://wordpress.org/support/topic/missing-custom-folders-in-add-media/
    this is more serious problem because we cannot approach folders directly when creating gallery or adding images at all.

    Hey there. Yes, we just checked it. We disabled it and could not again upload image with ‘ mark. Once removed it can be uploaded normally. Seems that it is either theme or wordpress problem, or who knows what. Not with your plugin. But even if it is, it is silly bug, just renaming image solves problem. However, missing folders we reported there in another post is serious problem.
