  I am currently using Sandbox 1.1 but have been playing around with the new version. I can get everything to work properly (I think) except photo galleries. Even when I have a gallery set to link the thumbnails to images, it always goes to the attachment page (the one that displays a slightly larger image inside my blog theme. It then has to be clicked a second time to view the original full-size image. This behavior only happens when I switch my theme to the latest Sandbox, because it works properly in Sandbox 1.1.

  Any ideas???

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

  Contacted support. Also discovered the following problems…

  The gallery in the following post is set to 2 columns, but is displaying as three. I also can’t figure out why the text is wrapping around the last image.

  Tried “sort by title” too – doesn’t work either. In short, the gallery options don’t work.

  Support said there was a bug in the theme that was affecting the gallery display (columns) and they fixed it. I am still waiting for a reply on why the thumbnails can’t be linked directly to the original image.
