What it does
The block editor's built-in gallery covers the basics, but many site owners want more control over how images are arranged and how they open when clicked. This plugin works directly in Gutenberg, so you pick your images, choose a layout and adjust the look from the same editor you already use for posts and pages. You can set colors per gallery, choose between masonry and grid arrangements, and decide how many columns each gallery uses.
When a visitor clicks an image, the gallery can open it in a Prettyphoto or Magnificer popup, or send the visitor to a custom URL. A one-thumb option shows a single thumbnail for a cleaner layout. Galleries are responsive with their own responsiveness settings and are retina ready for high-resolution screens. Item tagging helps you organize images, and included .po and .mo files let you translate the plugin for visitors in other languages.
Best for
- Photographers displaying portfolios on WordPress
- Bloggers who add image galleries to posts
- Business sites using the Gutenberg block editor
Features
Three gallery types
Choose Prettyphoto or Magnificer popups to open images in an overlay, or use the Custom URL type to link each image to a page of your choice.
Twelve gallery styles
Pick from twelve distinct styles to change the look of each gallery so it fits your branding and the design of the page it sits on.
Masonry and grid layouts
Arrange images in a masonry layout for mixed image sizes or a tidy grid when you want even rows and a uniform presentation.
One to eight columns
Set anywhere from 1 to 8 columns per gallery, so a gallery can be a single wide column or a dense grid of small thumbnails.
Custom colors per gallery
Adjust colors individually for each gallery, which helps keep galleries consistent with your brand colors across different pages of the site.
Responsive and retina ready
Galleries adapt to different screen sizes with custom responsiveness settings, and images are prepared to look sharp on high-resolution displays.
One-thumb gallery option
Show a single thumbnail that opens the full gallery, a minimal layout that saves space on busy pages while keeping navigation simple.
Item tagging and translation
Tag gallery items to organize and filter images, and use the included .po and .mo files to translate the plugin for international visitors.
