  Is it possible to embed the photos ( I don’t know if that is the correct terminology ) so people visiting my website, can’t ‘click to view larger photos’? I really just want to have a thumbnail gallery vs. an interactive gallery.

  WP.com: Yes
  Jetpack: No
  Correct account: Yes

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

  Hi there,

  Our gallery options are intended to allow you to see an enlarged version of any image in the gallery. There is not a way to turn this off however, it’s baked into how the gallery blocks work.

  Instead, you can consider creating a manual “gallery look” by adding a columns block to your page and then adding your images into the columns as standard image blocks.

  This will be a bit of work since you will need to go block-by-block adding your images but will allow you to have the look of a gallery without the interactivity. Please note that you will need one columns block per row in your grid. For example if you want a grid of 9 images (3×3) you will need to add a columns block with 3 columns, then add an image in each, then a second columns block (with an image in each columns) followed by a third columns block also with 3 images in it.

  Hope that helps. Please let us know if you have any more questions.
