problems creating photo web gallery

I have PS CS5. In the past I have been able to create a web photo gallery in Bridge. I've posted in on my website and it worked. I have used both the HTML gallery and Flash galleries. Now when I make the HTML gallery, it does not work on my websites.   I'm doing it the same as I did before when it worked - Bridge creates the gallery, saves it to the folder, link is added to the web page. The web gallery page displays but the photos aren't there. When I test it with internal browser, it works correctly. It's just when I publish it to the web that it doesn't show the photos.  I've checked it with different browsers. What could be wrong?

Visitors to the website who don't have Adobe Flash and/or their device doesn't allow Flash can't view photos so the HTML gallery is needed.

Is you Web server on a Mac running OSX?  My server is also on a Unix type server.  Unix file system are normally case sensitive where Windows File system is not   So on Windows "FileName" and "filename" are the same where on Unix file system they are not. Make sure your Templates file system references have the popper Case and have the correct Path and file names.  Compare your servers Web gallery tree names to the HTML generated by the Web Photo Gallery Plug-in using your Gallery template .htm files. The Paths, File names and case need to match else  you thumbnails and image files will be unresolved.

I installed the Plug-in. I created a new "lawn_party_test" photo gallery. The photos are in published to the website but it still shows a broken link/path.

Impossible to say anything. You have left out the most important information: To which site/ hosting provider you are actually uploading your files using what methodology, including a link to the pages in question.

Hosting provider is Godaddy. FTP files using Filezilla.

Currently only the first group of photos "lawn party" has a link to HTML photo gallery (view with simple viewer).

It look like you image are not being found. Are sure your template are creating the correct html and file system tree four your content something like

"www.matthewshistoricalfoundation.org/mhf/HTML_Lawn_Party_2015/content//Lawn Party 2015_files/_3101965610.jpg "

exists on your web server. Perhaps there should not be blanks(spaces) in the folder name "Lawn Party 2015_files"
