I found that I needed to right my own Gallery template to match the
Wordpress one to make it work.

G'day,

Does anyone have a copy of the Custom Rewrite Rules plugin? The download 
link is dead.
http://wp-plugins.net/plugin/custom_rewrite_rules/

If not, I'm reading the WP_Rewrite function reference on codex:
http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/WP_Rewrite

and using the FeedDirector plugin as a starting point:
http://boren.nu/archives/2005/03/29/feed-director-plugin/

I'd like to add some custom rewrite rules to redirect 
/directory/pagename.htm to page_id = 2. Does that make sense? So 
siteurl.com/directory/pagename.htm will load the page with page_id 2 in 
WordPress.

I've tried this code (modified from the Feed Director plugin:
function feed_dir_rewrite($wp_rewrite) {
    $feed_rules = array(
        'index.rdf' => 'index.php?feed=rdf',
        'index.xml' => 'index.php?feed=rss2',
        'test.htm' => 'index.php&page_id=2',
        '(.+).xml' => 'index.php?feed=' . $wp_rewrite->preg_index(1)
        );

        $wp_rewrite->rules = $feed_rules + $wp_rewrite->rules;
}

The index.rdf and index.xml links work, but my test.htm link doesn't for 
some reason. Can anyone offer any suggestions?

Cheers,

Callum.

(Probably a question that belongs on the WP support forums, or even the WPG2
forums[1])

But, have a look at this:

http://wpg2.galleryembedded.com/index.php?title=WPG2:Creating_a_custom_wpg2h
eader.php_file

That fixes most layout borkage.

Hello all:
I need to embed a gallery into my WP Site... actually, I just need how to
find the proper file to edit. I'm a WP newbie, as you see.

Can somebody guide me to the light, please? My brain is all cracked up, now.
I've tried the WPG2 plugin, but  it breaks the layout of my template... any
ideas?

Thanks for reading.
CYa!
:)

I find that when people write a web page (like the types that are
hand-coded, about 30KB long, contain about 5 paragraphs and contain an
'Optimised for Netscape' banner) it will contain errors and will trigger
browser quirks, so they will tweak it and tweak it until it looks right.

The same could apply to WordPress. If we are always filtering the markup
with something like Tidy, then, for example, someone will write a post
in badly formed XHTML, then do a 'Save and Continue Editing' to get a
preview. They will see it just doesn't look 'quite right' so they will
tweak it a bit or try something else until it does look right.

Do you get my point? You might think that because we put it through a
filter, it won't look right to people. In reality, I think they will
just tweak it until it does look right, and in the end, it will be
well-formed.

(This email was sitting in my drafts folder for a few days, that's why
it's a bit late)
