Forum:Infobox Gallery Default Image?

Hello! I'm relatively new to editing on Fandom, but I've been doing most of my edits in the Source Editor as it's just better/more... precise for some things I like to see. I've been doing well at finding answers for what I want to do (example: finding the nowiki syntax so the below example looked correct), but not for this issue. Anyway, I've been working with an infobox that has a gallery in it:


 * image1=

Nevermind the file names, not my decision(s), but to the matter at hand: I would like the page, when loaded, to show the "Ancient Frost Skull" image by default, but still organize it as the second option. Is there any syntax or parameter I can add to gallery to achieve this?

Thanks! --Zeke11597 (talk) 06:32, 12 February 2021 (UTC)


 * While I appreciate the help, that wasn't exactly what I meant sorry. I've gone ahead and reverted that change on the template. Not looking to have a default across the template, but rather inside the infobox. Here might be a better example/explanation of what I'm looking for:


 * Imagine, say, I have 4 pages for Pokémon. Charmander, Charmeleon, Charizard, and Bulbasaur--I want the gallery to default to the picture of Charizard on Charizard's page's infobox, but default to Charmeleon or Charmander on their pages' infoboxes. Ideally it'd be nice to see all 3 images on each page, but on Bulbasaur's page, I obviously don't want any Charmander evolution information showing.


 * Charmander Page infobox
 * Gallery
 * Charmander.png|Charmander - default selected
 * Charmeleon.png|Charmeleon
 * Charizard.png|Charizard
 * /Gallery


 * Charmeleon Page infobox
 * Gallery
 * Charmander.png|Charmander
 * Charmeleon.png|Charmeleon - default selected
 * Charizard.png|Charizard
 * /Gallery


 * Hopefully that helps clarify what I'm looking for and my apologies for the lack of specifics before. If it isn't possible though I'll just as soon scrap the idea of having all 3 visible when they each have their own page anyway, so not a big deal in the end.

 * Hello Zeke11597. As far as I am aware, there is no way to do this. The capability just simply isn't part of the code the runs this feature. That said, you could contact staff and suggest that they consider adding this. However, it will probably be quite a while before it gets added; assuming they decide to do so.
