What it does
Putting a large set of photos on a website often ends with one long, hard-to-browse page. This plugin solves that by letting you tag images with categories and add a filter so visitors can narrow a gallery to the work they care about. Each image can display its title, caption and category, which gives viewers context about what they are looking at. Layouts are responsive, so galleries adjust to desktops, tablets and phones.
The plugin is built for the Kadence WP ecosystem and works alongside the Kadence theme and Kadence Blocks, keeping gallery styling consistent with the rest of your site. When you have many galleries, the album feature groups them into collections visitors can move through. For viewing individual photos you can pick between two responsive lightbox engines and switch between light and dark styles. Gallery pages also work with the WordPress core password protection feature when you want to keep certain sets private.
Best for
- Photographers presenting portfolios on Kadence theme sites
