Per-gallery settings - manual method

If you prefer not to use the editor button, you can override settings manually for each gallery, by including attributes in your opening {gallery} tag, similarly to how you would when writing html. For example:

If you mistype the name of a setting or if you provide a setting value that isn’t valid for that setting, it will be ignored, and the setting you’ve chosen in the plugin’s admin page will be used instead.

The below provides a reference on which settings can be overridden, what mark-up to use, and what values are allowed for each setting. For info on what each of these settings does, refer back to the settings section of this guide.
