    I want the Gallery page to show all the images in a neat line and all preferably the same size. These are all hyper linked to a gallery. at the moment it is scattered around the page. Can this be achieved?

    Hello — the images on your Gallery page are all inserted separately. If you want a uniform appearance you should insert them as a gallery. To accomplish this, please follow the directions in the link below:

    That should do the trick! Let us know if you have any other questions.

    hi thatrobyn,

    Appreciate your response. I understand what you are saying and i believe i have previously tried that however can the images seperately still be hyperlinked to a new page if created as a gallery? I thought this was where it had issues? Each one of those images on the Gallery Page is hyperlinked to another page with more images, which has been inserted as a gallery.

    You’re right. If you create a Gallery, the images will link to a slideshow, to an attachment page, or to a media file, but not to a linked page.

    If you want to insert a crisp grid of images without using the gallery, you’ll have to do a couple things:

    1. The images must be edited manually so they have the same dimensions. Otherwise, if they are different shapes no matter how you line them up, they won’t appear uniform.

    2. Create a table in which you can insert your images. The table can be invisible to the reader, but will give the images constraints so they stay neat.

    Tables are created in HTML. If you have never used HTML before, take a look at this link which will walk you through the process:

    I’m happy to help if you get stuck. Just drop me a line.
