Hi there,
I was just wondering if there's a way to have multiple galleries within a gallery? Say if I have an event and then there's different sections to the event... If that makes sense?

Thanks for any help

You could create an Event Category, for example Sports -
then add different galleries to that category like a Baseball gallery, and a hockey gallery and a football gallery.

Also you could try something like this:

Once you are in the Gallery you want to put a sub Galleries in just click on the "Add Photos" button then you will see several option show up. One will be "New Gallery". That will be the option to create a new gallery within the gallery in question.

Be careful not to confuse galleries and categories here. Creating a new gallery on that screen creates a new gallery that you assign to any category/subcategory. It does not create a gallery within a gallery.

Galleries are collections of photos.

Categories are collections of (optionally subcategories) and galleries.
Subcategories are collections of galleries.

A gallery cannot contain other galleries.

You are right. I did not use the proper wording. You throw to many new terms at person who is un-familiar and you confuse them more.
