  I’m wanting to edit a picture gallery in a blog I’m presently working on. When I click on the specific galley in the edit page and click the edit or delete button for that matter, the page just jumps to the gallery at the top of the page. I cannot edit the galleries.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Actually, I would like a quick response from wordpress, as I’m working to a tight deadline, and need to get on. However, if anyone knows how to rectify my problem, I would be very grateful. Thanks

  So, there is a second way to edit a gallery if the normal way is not working for some reason. When you go to the edit screen of a page with a gallery and click the “text” view, you’ll see something like this:

  [gallery order="DESC" type="rectangular" ids="1688,720,721,719,537,534,187,181,183,186,189,188,715,716,717,718,541,540"]

  The numbers are attachment ID’s for images in the media library. You just need to add on the ID of the image you want to include (or delete the ID’s of any you want to remove).

  To get an attachment ID for an image, go to your Media Library and click on the title of the image you want. You can find the ID in the URL (the number after post=).
