Masonry Thumbnails - images not showing

For my home page I'm using a album set template just for my home page, on a desktop computer if I use the Masonry thumbnail grid the images don't appear, just an empty frame. If I switch to iconic thumbnails the images appear ok. However if I view the the home page on a mobile device the thumbnails don't appear which ever style I use.
This problem only occurs on the first visit to the site from an outside link ( www.ipgphotography.uk ) if, within the site, I click on the Home link everything works ok even on a mobile
What am I doing wrong?

As I write this I'm leaving it set on Masonry until (hopefully) I get an answer smile

Re: Masonry Thumbnails - images not showing

the Home link in your navigation menu goes to your Galleries page

Not sure why you're not seeing the same thing on your home page. It looks like you're embedding the Galleries album set on the home page. Perhaps there's something that prohibits a top-level gallery (album set) from being embedded in a page. I'm not sure.

Have you tried embedding an album set other than the Galleries page album set in your home page?

Re: Masonry Thumbnails - images not showing

Just tried a test page and that works Ok, the same as using the home link above.
Coming from a different direction how could I redirect the address ipgphotography.uk to ..../galleries so that anyone clicking on an outside line would go straight to my galleries page.

Re: Masonry Thumbnails - images not showing

I just set up the home page on my test site to embed the Galleries album set. I also changed the album set template to a masonry layout.
It's working fine for me (after some initial weirdness)

have you tried clearing the template cache?

Re: Masonry Thumbnails - images not showing

Ok Rod, I'll have a look at it in the morning and see what I can do.
Thanks

Edit, just had a quick look and cleared the template cache and seems to have done the trick. Also looks good on my phone.

Thanks for your help, much appreciated
Paul
