Change CSS of admin gallery download plugin so download buttons are in front of gallery, not in document flow taking up space.
Add lines to gallery shortcode to set $displayurl to $url if empty (some images don’t have medium size thumbnails), change width to max-width in 2 place so 88×31 buttons in galleries arent’t expanded
Fixed shortcode that includes posts… $atts somehow got renamed to $a in some places

Change draggable elements plugin to move draggables to be children of body, make fixed, and create invisible placeholders so page doesn’t reflow, if not already fixed positioning,
