Topic: Some galleries displaying old settings

Newbie here. Using Wordpress 3.8.3, Weaver II theme, current version of SimpleViewer plugin.
Apparently I installed and then uninstalled SimpleViewer some weeks ago - but some pages continued to display SimpleViewer galleries. So I re-installed SimpleViewer, made some changes to the gallery defaults, and successfully created galleries that show as I want.
There are a couple though, that show with other settings. When I look at wp-content\Uploads - the gallery xml is identical:same values for the ones that display as I want and the ones that don't. Where else can I look for a file that would have settings overwriting those?

updated to erase personal/site info

Re: Some galleries displaying old settings

The 'Furniture' gallery was not created with WP-SimpleViewer and uses different configuration options to the 'Custom Bedding and Pillows' gallery.

The 'Furniture' gallery's configuration options can be seen in its XML file here: [Link removed.]

As the 'Furniture' gallery was not created with WP-SimpleViewer, you will not be able to change this gallery's configuration options within the plugin.

The 'Custom Bedding and Pillows' gallery has been created with WP-SimpleViewer and its configuration options are stored in this file: [Link removed.]
You can edit this gallery (if necessary) by going to 'SimpleViewer -> Manage Galleries' from the WordPress Dashboard and clicking 'Edit' next to the gallery in question.

You're welcome! I am glad I was able to help.

(I see that you have removed the links to your site from your original post so I have done the same with my reply above.)
