Even with the WordPress 5.1, I am not able to see the gallery TYPE to show as shown on this page (#8):

Does Genesis and or Epik not allow the gallery TYPE?

No, there isn’t anything within the child theme that would affect that. That is actually a WordPress feature. I would just double check your settings, or you can see if Genesis (the framework itself) affects it in anyway, but I don’t think thats it. It works fine for me.

Thanks very much Wes! I do realize that this is a WordPress feature, however it is just strange that is not available. After trying a few different themes, it is still not a gallery option for me, even with WordPress 5.1. I realize this is beyond the scope of this forum and will keep researching the issue.

Yeah, it’s working fine for me as well. Did you check to see if you are looking in the right place?

Thanks again for chiming in Kronos! I believe I am looking in the correct places. As pointed out on this link, the TYPE does not appear as an option in the CREATE or EDIT gallery areas in sections 7 or 8:

To add to this, I have done some Google searches on this issue and it seems that others have the similar issue, unrelated to Genesis of course. Some say it was an issue with the most recent WP update and some day Jetpack fixed this. However, it does not make sense as I assume Wes and Kronos are using the latest update as I am. Regardless, I will keep searching and even try the 3.6 beta on a non live/staging site and see if I have success. Thanks again for your support.

I’m actually not using Jetpack, just the standard WordPress download from WordPress.org….so I’m not sure if that has something to do with it or not.

Interesting enough, I went ahead and downloaded and activated Jetpack by WordPress.com and now the gallery TYPE shows and I am able to create a slideshow. It is strange that Wes was able to do so without JetPack. I wonder if Kronos is also able to do so with or without Jetpack? I assume we are all using WordPress 5.1 as I am. Thanks again to Wes and Kronos!
