Hi Ben,
Please see my code below.
$w.onReady(function () {
let item = $w("#Dataset1").getCurrentItem();
$w("#gallery1").items = [
{src: item.image1, title: item.image_title1, description: item.image_desc1},
{src: item.image2, title: item.image_title2, description: item.image_desc2},
{src: item.image3, title: item.image_title3, description: item.image_desc3},
];
});
Been trying for a few days, please help me. Thanks!

Hi Terence,
I have reviewed your code and there are a few possible errors. 1. Check your dataset name, usually it's "dataset1"
2. Remove the comma "," from image3 array
3. Are you using a regular Wix gallery or Wix Pro gallery?
$w.onReady(function () {
let item = $w("#dataset1").getCurrentItem();
$w("#gallery1").items = [
{src: item.image1, title: item.image_title1, description: item.image_desc1},
{src: item.image2, title: item.image_title2, description: item.image_desc2},
{src: item.image3, title: item.image_title3, description: item.image_desc3}
];
});
Hope this helps! Good luck!
