okay, I have removed the page transition effect, and the issue still exists. It also worked perfectly fine before with the transition.

I’m going to try completely deleting the galleries and portfolios and re-adding them to see what happens.

update. Completely redid all the portfolio and galleries. Same issue.

:/ not sure what to do next. I loved this theme but it only worked for about a month then after the update its been useless.

Thank you! For future reference, where is this setting located?
