Version 1.3.6 · Oct 7, 2026

What it does
A standard photo gallery shows your work but gives viewers no way to respond to a specific image. If you want to know which shots people like, or gather reviews on a piece of artwork, a single comment thread at the bottom of a page makes it hard to tell which photo each comment refers to. This addon solves that by attaching a comment area to each image, so every conversation stays tied to the picture it is about.
The addon works with the WordPress comment system you already have, which means approval, moderation and spam handling follow the same process you use for posts. You can choose how comments display, turn moderation on or off, and approve comments before they appear. Comments can be enabled on any or all of your Envira galleries, and they also load inside the lightbox view. It fits portfolios, artwork collections and photography blogs built with Envira Gallery.
Best for
- Photographers collecting feedback on portfolio images
- Artists sharing work and gathering viewer reviews
- Photography blogs built with Envira Gallery
