How to use pictures in Slideshow to gallery?
-
I have created a slideshow which contains 38 pictures, it works fine as expected.
I also want to create a gallery based on these pictures, I don’t believe I have to upload them again, but when I click on “insert media” in my page, I don’t see gallery options, there are only From Computer, From URL, Media Library. I know if I upload those pictures again then they will show in new option called Gallery, I don’t believe I have to upload them again, there got to be an easy way to reuse those pictures, but how?
It’s impossible to insert all the 38 pictures one by one to let them exist in Gallery, although that’s feasible.
Thank you.

Obviously you mean you want to insert that gallery in a separate post or page. You need to get the ID of the post or page with the slideshow, and write this in the HTML editor of the new post or page:
[gallery id="ID NUMBER HERE"]
To find the id number of the slideshow page (assuming your slideshow is a page), you go to Pages > All Pages, hover over the page title and check the status/progress bar of your browser.

By the way, if you had to re-upload the images again, you wouldn’t upload them one by one: you could upload them all at once.
