image size in gallery does not adjust width anymore?
-
Damn it you’re right! Apparently I was fooled by the damned cache: when I refreshed the page to see the results, things were as I said. Now that I checked again, I was greeted by the nice little questionmark… Sorry (but I’ll keep experimenting – promise to be more careful next time)!

OK-here’s how I did it finally. Upload separate image via new, unpublished Post. Saved the unpublished Post.
Went back to the Post where the Gallery appears, opened it in the Write Editor. Clicked on “Add an Image”, then from the Media Library in the Image Uploader I clicked used “Insert into Post” to insert the image into the Post where the Gallery displays. Apparently in order to avoid navigation problems, you should link the separate image to “None” or “Image URL” only.
I’m still experimenting with deleting the Post where the separate image is uploaded. But that’s for later.

Thanks for the fix in fixed-width themes. However, images are still overflowing into the sidebar for flexible-width themes. Are there any plans to fix that?

(@tma2-I wanted to check your site, but then remembered that you switched from Rubric to K2 to “solve” the problem.)

@justjennifer: Ah, good!
I’ve got news, too (or so I think – please check it)! It’s the reverse solution. If you want both gallery and separate image in post A, you can upload the separate image in A, then upload the gallery in another post and transfer it to A (with the post ID shortcode). Once this is done, you can even remove the gallery shortcode from the other post.
@tma2: Did you try Andreas09?

OK-separate image in Gallery Post problem solved. Apparently I needed to follow my own Gallery FAQ instructions and upload the separate picture via an already existing Post and then insert it into the Gallery Post from the Media Library. No need at all for a new, unpublished post.
Hope the flexible width issue tma2 still has gets resolved as easily.

@panaghiotisadam: Yep, thanks very much for that suggestion of Andreas09. It works. However, I don’t really like that theme, for various reasons including a sidebar to the left, etc. :)
Good that you solved the pic-in-gallery-post problem, I will need that later on for nested galleries. Thanks for that as well.
I guess what I’ll do is look for a fixed-width theme that is readable enough (if I find one better than K2lite, maybe TheJournalist) and switch to that. Then, in the future, if the problem is solved for the Rubric theme, I’ll switch back to it (it’s the most easily readable and cleanest flexible theme, IMHO).

(thanks to justjennifer as well, of course, for the consistent help — just posting to make that explicit)
