  2. By default, the gallery option appears in the dropdown; leave it at that.

  3. Set Global to True or False using the radio button provided. This determines if the gallery is globally visible or not.
  4. If Global is set to False in Step 3, choose the Context from which the gallery should be drawn. If Global is set to True, this drop down does not appear. The context determines the WordPress, BuddyPress or bbPress context from which media or other items are displayed. If Default is chosen, items associated with the current context will be considered.
