    • Hi Miriam,

      Can you please check under your “Plugins” dashboard and make sure that the “BoldGrid Gallery” plugin is installed and active? The plugin should add the extra options you’re looking for.

    • Hello Dave-
      The placeholder images are 350px wide by 260px high. If you use an image that’s wider than your user’s device, it will be resized to 100vw (View-Width) so your image should work on any device. That being said, images that are much wider than they are tall don’t work well, because they’ll be very small on a smaller device.
