How to Create Tiled Galleries

Charlene’s Question: Hi Tony, will you please refresh my mind. How do I create a tiled gallery?

Hi Charlene,

Should you have a free version of WordPress (I recall you do have a free version of WordPress):

Make sure you have the correct settings in the Admin Area.

Go to Admin > Settings > Media:

Check (tick) the boxes as per the screenshot below:

For all those who do not have a free version of WordPress:

Go to your Admin Area > plugin > download and activate ‘Jetpack’

Go to Jetpack > Settings > activate ‘Tiled Galleries’ > go back to ‘ Jetpack Settings’ > click ‘configure’  (Tiled Galleries)

Configure:

You are almost done:

Go to the Page or Post where you would like to add your Gallery, say for example that you want to add your Gallery to a new page:

Hover over ‘Pages’ > click ‘Add New’: new page opens > click ‘Add Media’ button: new window opens: click ‘Create Gallery’ > click ‘Select Files’ > choose your images and click ‘Open’ > click the ‘Create a New Gallery’ button.

On the Edit Gallery window go to ‘Gallery Settings’ towards the top right hand corner of that window > and go to ‘Type’. On the drop-down menu click on ‘Tiled Mosaic’> click ‘Insert Gallery’.

And that’s it! Trust the aforementioned is of assistance to you.
