    so in this case your IDs are:

    129,100,99,98,92,91,90,89,88,85

    When you recreate the gallery, you should see

    [gallery ids="129,100,99,98,92,91,90,89,88,85"]

    Which should then work.

    Those are the full links rather then the ID, to get the ID it’s a bit tricky as it’s not shown on the screen itself, here is an easier way

    In your browser go to

    http://localhost/wordpress/wp-admin/upload.php?mode=list

    This will give yo a list of your images, to get the ID if you hover over the edit link for image, you will see something like:
    https://localhost/wordpress/wp-admin/post.php?post=543&action=edit

    The 543 is the ID.

    Alternatively in the same view you can click the edit and you will see the same URL now in your browser window. So you can then go through the tedious process I outlined above.

    Sorry, I misunderstood and assumed the error had subsequently gone.
    If you have access to your error logs which you should be able to access via your control panel then you can look to see if there is an error there.

    Otherwise do as your currently doing and contact your host, who should be able to see the issue and fix it for you.

    I’m glad it’s sorted, but that really shouldn’t have worked :s
    Anyway it’s working which is the main thing!

    Glad it’s sorted, from your description it sounds like someone at the hosting company forgot to do something and quickly fixed it.

    I’m afraid what I am going to suggest is a little time consuming

    The ids in the gallery tag are the ID of the image, it thinks you clicked when you selected to put them in the gallery.

    So to help work out what is going on, I suggest recreating the gallery, go through the steps you did previously, but note down the ID of the image you are selecting in the Media Manager page and then compare it to that list shown in the gallery tag.

    To get the ID of the image, the simplest way is if you are in the “grid view” so large thumbnails on the media manager page, then click the image so you go into it’s edit screen and look at the id in the url it will look something like “wp-admin/upload.php?item=537” the ID is 537 in this case.

    To make this process quick (and you will only have to do it once) go and click into each image individually jot down the IDs, then recreate the gallery following your original steps and compare the IDs do they match?

    If the IDs you wrote down, match the IDs in your new gallery, is it now showing the correct images?

    Finally if they do match but show the wrong image, do you have any plugins installed that are related to showing images in some way?

    It’s worth noting Memory and CPU are different things, though if you have limited memory, then the CPU increases, as it has to work harder putting things in and removing things from memory.

    I’m assuming you are on shared hosting of some sort, rather then a VPS, if you are on shared hosting, it might also not be anything to do with yourself, as the name implies shared hosting, resources are shared and while limits are put in place, Hosting providers often put a lot of sites on a single box, assuming very few will hit the limits. Therefore 1 or 2 other hosts can cause issues for yourself.

    Yoasts plugin while a large complex plugin would be unlikely to cause a gradual CPU increase, just small spikes.

    I’m afraid it is worth attempt to talk to your host again, it does sound like you have done all the right things, and it could well be an issue with the host themselves.

    Liverpool group is currently on a bit of a break, but you have a few choices for monthly meetups:

    Manchester – mwug.info is your nearest large meetup run by WordPress co-founder Mike Little
    WordPress Cumbria – Up in Kendal a bit of a trek but a great new little group
    WordPresston – over in Preston brand new, only had one meetup.

    Sorry for the very late reply, but yes there is WordPress Leeds (it’s actually the oldest meetup in the country) and meets most months, you can find details on http://wpleeds.co.uk

    Yorkshire actually has 3 meetups, Sheffield, Leeds and York, with Huddersfield coming soon.

    Folks looking for London Developers might be interested in attending the regular monthly Meetups in London – http://www.meetup.com/London-WordPress/ for details.

    Just be aware that tickets go quite quickly but they have an active community on meetup.

    You can remove the gz file, it’s a zipped version of the sitemap, but perhaps rather then deleting it, simply rename it through your server control panel, so you still have it as a backup. Then just use Yoast SEO plugin from now on and everything should be fine.

    I’m guessing you are in the Text version of the editor, on the edit/add page you will see in the righthand side two tabs Visual | Text next to the various edit buttons at top of the post.

    Hit Visual and everything should reappear images and all (fingers crossed)

    If you don’t see “Visual” option then you might have it disabled in your user profile, so visit your profile users->your Profile and make sure “Disable the visual editor when writing” is unticked.

    Couple of questions to see if we can get you sorted, in the editor do you see something that looks like

    [gallery ids="2,3,4,5,6"]

    or are you just seeing something like

    [gallery]

    or perhaps nothing at all?

    The next question is are you using WordPress4.0 ?

    If you are seeing the gallery shortcode with no id’s then that will be the issue, as the gallery has not got specified Ids so selects all of them.

    It might be worth you posting this on the Yoast SEO plugin support section – https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wordpress-seo as they maybe able to provide more help.

    However it sounds like you have both a Sitemap generating plugin and Yoast SEO plugin installed, or have had in the past?

    If so, it would appear they both are trying to generate a sitemap for you, and are conflicting so you can simply switch off the sitemap functionality in yoasts plugin or remove the other sitemap plugin, then go and remove the sitemap.xml file on your server and get which ever plugin you choose to regenerate it.

    Hope that makes sense, if you are in any doubt though, worth using that above link and asking the Yoast support peeps 🙂

    Hi Alex,
    When you insert an individual image into your post they don’t show up in the editor but show up as [gallery ids="1"] with just a single ID?

    Also which version of WordPress are you using the latest 4.0?
