    You cannot convert directly from the slideshow block to the gallery block. You will have to create your new gallery separately, and populate the gallery with the same images that were in your slideshow.

    Since your theme MistyLook uses the classic editor, you can read more about how to set up a gallery block using the classic editor here in this article.

    You can view all Jetpack help documentation here: https://jetpack.com/support/

    Hi @jamkmak,

    Just a quick note on this:

    Since your theme MistyLook uses the classic editor

    What editor one uses isn’t determined by the theme, and with any theme you have the option to use either the block or the classic editor on WordPress.com, with the block editor being the default for all users/sites.

    This also applies to very old, retired themes like MistyLook – not all features of the block editor will be available in that theme, but the fact that someone has this theme doesn’t automatically mean they’re using the classic editor, and we should be encouraging people to use the block editor regardless of what theme they’re using :)
