This is a problem I'm having with my private blog. I am trying to use gallery in a post by using the shortcode feature to select which images to include or excluse from the gallery display. The documentation says you can do this by specifying the attachment IDs as an argument to the command. Trouble is I can't figure out what the attachment IDs are. Documentation says:
"Note: To get an attachment ID for an image, go to your Media Library and hover over the image title you want to exclude. You can find the ID in the URL (the number after attachment_id=)."
But! When I hover over an image title in my Media Library what I get is "Edit Image". Also the image URL appears to be made up of the image title, not a numeric ID.
Anyone else run into this and solved it? Or should I throw myself at a Happiness Engineer? ta! Heather
