  The choose images button on the Gallery widget won’t work? I click on it and nothing happens – so I can’t get any photos in my side bar – is it because of my theme?

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

  Sounds like there may be some jquery conflicts in the theme you’re using. Try another theme and see if that resolves your issue.

  You could also try the following if it ends up not being a theme issue.

  1. Try clearing your browser’s cache: http://en.support.wordpress.com/browser-issues/

  2. Try with all browser extensions or add-ons temporarily disabled.

  won’t changing themes mess up everything else I’ve done?

  All your settings are save in the database so changing themes will not affect that. You can always go back if that’s not the issue but I would probably try the browser settings first.

  Are you using the theme customizer?

  Don’t use the Customizer; add the widget in Dashboard>Appearance>Widgets>Add Gallery Widget>Add images, select style of Gallery. Save.
